Glucokinase is the enzyme responsible for phosphorylation of glucose in the first step of glycolysis. The glucokinase complex is modified by two different molecules: citrate and ATP. Citrate and ATP are both products of the sequence of reactions in aerobic respiration and are consequently products of glycolysis. As these two molecules' concentrations in the cell build up, they bind to the allosteric site of glucokinase and shut it down.

How does amoeba feed?

Amoebas feed by engulfing food particles through a process called phagocytosis. They extend their pseudopods around the food particle, forming a food vacuole that contains the particle. Digestive enzymes are then secreted into the food vacuole to break down the food for absorption.


What feeds by the secretion of extracellular enzymes on food?

Fungi and some bacteria feed by secreting extracellular enzymes onto their food source, breaking down complex molecules into simpler forms that can be absorbed for nutrition. This process is known as external digestion and allows these organisms to access nutrients from a wide range of organic materials.


What is vesicles parasites?

How does an absorptive heterotroph feed?

An absorptive heterotroph feeds by secreting enzymes to break down organic matter outside of its body, then absorbing the resulting nutrients through its cell membrane. This process allows them to obtain energy and nutrients from a wide range of organic materials.


How are the larvae of cabbage butterflies able to feed on plants that have defensive chemicals?

Cabbage butterfly larvae have specialized enzymes that can detoxify and break down the defensive chemicals produced by plants. This allows them to feed on a wide variety of plants, including those with chemical defenses. Additionally, they have evolved behavioral adaptations, such as selective feeding and timing their feeding cycles, to minimize exposure to these chemicals.
