The complex metabolic pathways in the parasite Trypanosoma brucei (the causative agent of sleeping sickness) were elucidated in part by adding radiolabeled metabolites to cultured parasites. In the parasite, glucose is converted to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in the cytosol. PEP then enters an organelle called the glycosome and is converted to oxaloacetate (OAA); OAA is then converted to malate, and malate to fumarate. Fumarate reductase catalyzes the conversion of fumarate to succinate; the succinate is then secreted from the glycosome. If C1 of glucose is labeled, what carbons in succinate are labeled

How is ribosomal rna useful as a molecular clock? a. a large portion of the dna ring is not vital to structure or function, allowing it to accumulate neutral mutations. b. its rate of mutation increases over time as organisms continue to evolve and differentiate from each other. c. a slow mutation rate makes it useful for determining evolutionary relationships between ancient species. d. it is only found in select organisms, making it easier to compare relationships between species that have it.
