Write the balanced reaction catalyzed by phophoenolpyruvate carboxylase (P PC). Remember to add any cofactors, and to draw the structure formulas (a line-bond representation is fine) for the main substrate and product of the reaction.
(i) During the Pyruvate Decarboxylase (PDC) catalysed reaction, a covalent
coenzyme intermediate is formed. On the skeleton of the covalent coenzyme
intermediate below draw the appropriate double bonds, charges, and electron
pairs to illustrate the two resonance forms of this intermediate. Name each form in
