A metabolic pathway proceeds according to the scheme, R -> S -> T -> U -> V -> W.  A regulatory enzyme, X, catalyzes the first reaction in the pathway.  Which of the following is most likely correct for this pathway?

#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology

  1. Either metabolite U or V is likely to be a positive modulator, increasing the activity of X.

  2. The first product S, is probably the primary negative modulator of X, leading to feedback inhibition.

  3. The last product, W, is likely to be a negative modulator of X, leading to feedback inhibition.

  4. The last product, W, is likely to be a positive modulator, increasing the activity of X.

Following statements regarding to the embryogenesis in A. thaliana.

A. The first zygotic division is unequal, with the basal cell larger than the apical cell. The basal cell divides to give rise to the suspensor. The apical cell divides vertically to form a two-celled proembryo, which will give rise to the rest of the embryo.

B. The top most suspensor cell is recruited into the embryo, where it is known as the hypophysis, and contributes to the embryonic root meristem and root cap.

C. The next two divisions produce an eight-cell octant-stage embryo, which develops into a heart-stage embryo of around 32 cells

D. The embryo elongates and the cotyledons start to develop as wing-like structures at one end, while an embryonic root forms at the other. This stage is known as the globular stage.
