Describe how cells can regulate aerobic respiration at the level of the conversion of glucose-6-

phosphate to fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate as catalyzed by phosphofructokinase (PFK). What will be an ideal response?


Concepts to Consider: PFK can be inhibited by feedback inhibition by excess ATP; PFK can be
activated by high levels of ADP and AMP.

What would you expect to happen if the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) failed to ubiquitinate securin?  

A.  The cohesin complex will be destroyed, and the cell will remain in metaphase. B.  The cohesin complex will persist, preventing the cell from entering anaphase. C.  Separase will be marked for degradation by securin, preventing the cell from entering anaphase. D.  Securin will remain intact and therefore will degrade cohesin, allowing the cell to enter anaphase.
