a-Linolenic acid ((9Z,12Z,15Z)-octadeca-9,12,15-trienoic acid; ALA))is a poly-unsaturated, w-3 fatty acid with 18 carbons found in manyfood sources. Since humans cannot synthesize fats with double bondspast carbon #9, it is "essential" and must be obtained from the diet.Hope you like salmon!If a serving of salmon contains 500.0 mg of ALA and all of it iscompletely oxidized via B-oxidation and the TCA, how many gramsof water at room temperature can be brought to a boil using thatenergy? (Specific heat of water: 4.184 J/mol; heat of vaporization ofwater: 40.65 kJ/mol; molar mass of ATP: 507.2 g/mol; DG° of ATPhydrolysis = -30.3 kJ/mol)

Given:- The α- Linolenic acid is a fatty acid. mass of ALA in a serving of salmon =…

) In Chapter 8 (The Water Soluble Vitamins), section 8.1 (What are Vitamins) discusses Absorption, Storage and Excretion of Vitamins, both water- and fat-soluble. How readily a vitamin can be absorbed and utilized by the body is called its bioavailability. Fat-soluble vitamins require _fat__in the diet for absorption while water soluble vitamins, which include all B vitamins and vitamin ______, dissolve in water and depend on energy-requiring transport systems or need to be bound to specific molecules in the GI tract in order to be absorbed in the small intestine. Once absorbed into the blood, vitamins must be transported to the cells, mostly by being bound to _________________________ for transport. Fat soluble vitamins, which include vitamins ______, ________, _________ and _______ are incorporated into ___________________ for transport from the intestine. With the exception of vitamin B12, the water-soluble vitamins are easily excreted from the body in the urine. In contrast,…
