Glycolysis is the oxidation of glucose into pyruvate. If this occurs aerobically in the cytosol, How many ATP molecules are formed? a. 8 b. 6 c. 4 d. 2 e. None of the above. In addition to ATP, in what other molecule can energy be stored du...
Peroxisome, membrane-bound organelle occurring in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. ... Peroxisomes containenzymes that oxidize certain molecules normally found in the cell, notably fatty acids and amino acids. Those oxidation reactions produce hydrogen peroxide, which is the basis of the name peroxis...
During glycolysis, the glucose is broken down to begin cellular respiration. What other molecules can be used in the cellular respiration pathway and where do these molecules enter the pathway? What structures in the mouth are important in the respiratory system?
Thanks wildfyr, yes all we need to know is restricted to the molecules found in food-related metabolic pathways (glycolysis, Krebs, Wakil and the like) so they basically only teach us the main functional groups (carboxylic acid, hydroxy, ester, carbonyl, amine, amid, thiol, thioester, and...
Glycolysis Summary:Glycolysis directly produces2 ATPfor every molecule of glucose; it supplies pyruvate and electron carriers for further metabolic processes. Glycolysis is a series of ten reactions in which a molecule of glucose is transformed into two molecules of the three-carbon molecule pyruvate,...
Yes, PUFAs have multiple double bonds but are differentiated by where those double bonds appear in the carbon tail of fat molecules. Omega-3s have the last double bond 3 from the end of the tail, whereas omega-6 have them 6 from the end of the tail. The placement of the bond determin...
First, a reactive process called glycolysis traps and converts glucose, a monosaccharide, and converts it into fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. Next, that fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is split into two molecules of three-carbon pyruvic acid (CH3COCOOH); that's important, because ATP is produced when ...
Interestingly, studies by Mami-Chouaib’s group have demonstrated an accumulation of CD103 molecules within the point of contact between CD103+ T cells and autologous E-cadherin+ cancer cells.112,113 The lack of E-cadherin on cancer cells can also diminish the movement of CD103 into the inter...
How does dehydration help in the synthesis of sugar molecules that are larger than monosaccharides? What is the role of oxygen in cellular respiration? What is the role of NADH in metabolism? What is the function of a protein macromolecule?
Which of these molecules stores the most energy? a. ADP b. ANP c. ATP d. AMP Which high energy electron carrier is regenerated during fermentation that allows cells to continue to make ATP using glycolysis? A. NAD^+ B. NADPH C....
