32
Q

Non disjunction

A

Trisomy or monosomy when fertilized

33
Q

Non-disjunction meiosis 1

A

All daughter cells affected

34
Q

Non-disjunction meiosis 11

35
Q

Gene responsible for brown eyes

A

OCA-2

36
Q

What active brown eyes gene forms

A

Melanocyte

37
Q

Fatal glycolytic enzymopathy

A

TPI (triose phosphate enzyme) deficiency

38
Q

Excess of what (in glycolysis) can generate glycogen in the liver and muscle

A

Glucose - 6 - phosphate

39
Q

What glycolysis step can be speed up or slowed down

A

3rd - phosphfructokinase

40
Q

What reaction commits cell to subsequent reactions

A

1st - to glucose - 6 - phosphate

41
Q

Why: what reaction commits cell to subsequent reactions

A

1st - to glucose - 6 - phosphate as it more reaction than glucose due to the presence of Pi

42
Q

Where Glycerol Phosphate shuttle

A

Skeletal muscle, brain

43
Q

Where Malatate-Asparate shuttle

A

Liver, kidney, heart
