Answer:
B. Lysine
Explanation: Methionine, Threonine and isoleucine can derive their carbon skeleton from the succinyl Co-A , a substrate in the kreb cycle formed from the products of the Oxaloacetic acids.
Lysine is derived from outside the kreb cycle, from the acetoactyl Co-A.

Question 6 2 pts Some amino acids can supply the carbon required for gluconeogenesis by undergoing a reaction catalyzed by an aminotransferase, an enzyme that interconverts amino acids and -keto acids. Aspartate aminotransferase catalyzes the reaction shown below. aspartate + a-ketoglutarate - oxalacetate + glutamate A biochemist studying metabolism feeds 4-[14C]-aspartate (asparatate that has 14C, the radioactive isotope of carbon, at the sidechain carboxylate) to his rats. After sacrificing the rats he is unable to find any +4C in glucose....
Question 10 (10 pts) Peptides are biological oligomers formed by condensing multiple amino acids into an amide backbone. Although this amide backbone is common to all peptides, the so- called 'side-chan' groups attached to this backbone vary depending the amino acids used in the condensation reaction. Shown below are four different tetrapeptides (so-named because they are the products of the condensation of four amino acids). Based on their structures, predict the order of elution that one might expect if separating...
