- The conversion of 1 molecule of fructose into 2 molecules of pyruvate produces the same amount of net ATP as the conversion of 1 molecule of glucose released from glycogen into 2 molecules of pyruvate true or falseThe body uses carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to fuel all its activities. These fuels each start down a different path, but they all ultimately end up providing energy by going through the TCA cycle and electron transport chain. Identify which compounds can be formed during metabolism from each fuel source. Compounds Formed During Metabolism Glucose Fuel Sources Glycerol Fatty acids Glucose Glucogenic amino acids Ketogenic amino acids Acetyl COA Pyruvate Lactate O B U 0 040 O O D 0 0000 1 200000 FatPlace the following molecules in the order in which they appear during aerobic respiration: Citrate G3P Glucose-6-phosphate Pyruvate Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate 3-phosphoglycerate Glucose Acetyl-CoA
- fatty acid store potential energy that can be used to create ATP in the Krebs citric acid cycle true or falseA stroke is caused by blocking the blood supply to the brain. What is the major end-product of glucose catabolism in brain cells during a stroke? Lactate Acetaldehyde Pyruvate Carbon dioxide Acetyl coenzyme ADuring glycolysis, the energy-investment phase occurs in the cytosol while the energy payoff phase occurs in the mitochondrial matrix. True False
- For every molecule of glucose produced, gluconeogenesis consumes: O2 ATP and 2 NADH ☐ 4 ATP and 1 NADH ☐ 6 ATP and 2 NADH 4 ATP and O NADHDuring anaerobic conditions, lactate travels from the muscle to the liver via the bloodstream. What is lactate converted into when it reaches the liver before it returns back to the muscle? Glucagon Citrate Acetyl CoA Glycogen GlucoseThe complete aerobic catabolism of one molecule of glycerol from the break-down of fats would result in the production of NADH ATP equivalents via substrate phosphorylation.
- Please explain the differences between 100% glucose and 0% glucose for all four processes： Glycolysis， Pyruvate Processing，Citric Acid Cycle，Electron Transport ChainWhich of the following is produced during glycolysis? pyruvate lactic acid acetyl-CoA NAD+Which of the following statements about glucose metabolism is correct? * Red blood cells can catalyse aerobic glycolysis because they contain oxygen bound to haemoglobin. Fructose cannot be used for gluconeogenesis in the liver. Glycolysis can proceed in the absence of oxygen only if pyruvate is formed from lactate in muscle. All of the reactions of glycolysis are freely reversible for gluconeogenesis. Red blood cells can only metabolise glucose by anaerobic glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway.
