1. What do the drops of NaOH indicate in terms of metabolic output (Hint: what causes carbon dioxide productionto go up or down based on activity in muscle cells)?. Did the number of drops of NaOH decrease after exercise (compared to before exercise) for some people?Explain why this happened (refer to the overall chemical equations of aerobic respiration and human musclefermentation in your explanation).

Aerobic respiration is a metabolic process that requires oxygen and produces ATP, a molecule that…

5. The intracellular use of glucose and glycogen is tightly regulated at four points. To compare the regulation of glycolysis when oxygen is plentiful and when it is depleted, consider the utilization of glucose and glycogen in rabbit leg muscle in two physiological settings: a resting rabbit, with low ATP demands, and a rabbit that sights its mortal enemy, the coyote, and dashes into its burrow. For each setting, determine the relative levels (high, intermediate, low) of AMP, ATP, citrate, and acetyl-CoA and describe how these affect the flow of metabolites through glycolysis by regulating specific enzymes. In periods of stress, rabbit leg muscle produces much of its ATP by anaerobic glycolysis (lactate fermentation) and very little by oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from fat breakdown.
"Time to scrub in," says Dr. Hodges. The appendectomy you are about to observe is your second surgical case in surgical technician school. The patient, David Sims, is an 18- year-old male who was healthy until two days ago when he began having severe abdominal pain, fever, and vomiting resulting in a diagnosis of appendicitis. David is in excellent health and has never had surgery before, so you anticipate the procedure to go smoothly. Your instructor asked the anesthesiologist, Dr. Hodges, if you can observe her today during the procedure. "All of the patient's vital signs and lab work are within normal limits so we are good to go," says Dr. Hodges as David is brought into the operating room. You help get David ready by applying the heart monitor, oxygen saturation monitor, and blood pressure cuff. After David has been sedated, Dr. Hodges places a special tube down his esophagus to measure his core body temperature and another in his trachea (an endotracheal tube) to help him breathe…
Ouabain specifically inhibits the Na+K+ ATPase activity of animal tissues but is not known to inhibit any other enzyme. When ouabain is added to thin slices of living kidney tissue, it inhibits oxygen consumption by 66%. Why? What does this observation tell us about the use of respiratory energy bykidney tissue?

If 36 molecules of ATP are produced by the aerobic catabolism of one molecule of glucose, how many grams of glucose would be required?
1.3. Aerobic Cellular Respiration: a.Write the chemical formula for the aerobic cellular respiration of glucose. b. List the major steps of aerobic cellular respiration and describe the major events of each step.c. Explain the role of an electron carrier in cellular respiration.d. Predict what would happen to the process of cellular respiration if oxygen was not present. In your answer, specifically state the role that oxygen plays in cellular respiration.
B) The actual concentrations of ATP, ADP and Pi differ by tissue/cell type (see table). Tissue/Cell Type ATP (mM) ADP (mM) Pi (mM) Liver 3.5 1.8 5.0 8.0 2.7 Skeletal Muscle 8.0 0.9 Brain 2.6 0.7 Calculate AG' for ATP hydrolysis in liver. (NOTE: assume 25°C and omit the concentration of water in your calculations).
The average cell at rest hydrolyzes 10,000,000 ATP molecules per second.You are studying the stem cell population found in intestinal Crypts.In the intestine there are s total 5x10^11 cell.The stem cells have a 85% higher metabolism than an average resting cell.ATP hydrlysis yield 7.4 kCal/Mole ATP(Avogadro's number is 6.023x10^23) How many moles of ATP are hydrolyzed per second? The answer should be 7.06 x 10^-6 moles/sec I believe, but I don't know how to get to that answer How many Kcal of energy are used per day by this population of cells? The answer for this one should be 4.514 kCal/day. Assuming 32 ATP per glucose oxidative metabolically how many moles of glucose are consumed per day?
Why does anaerobic respiration occur during vigorious exercise?a. during anaerobic respiration, enzymes make more ATP than during aerobic exercise.b. Anaerobic respiration releases more energy from glucose tan aerobic respiration.c. There maybe insuffiecient oxyen supplied to the muscle cells.d. Carbon dioxide builds up in the respiring muscle cells.
The most common fatty acid that exists in coconut oil is a fatty acid called lauric acid. This is a 12 carbon saturated (12:0) fatty acid. How many net ATP are produced from the complete oxidation of a single molecule of lauric acid after it enters into a muscle cell? Show steps please
