Summary Introduction

To determine:

The neuron that brings the impulse to the synapse and the neuron on the other side of the neuron which is stimulated or inhibited as result of the synaptic transmission.

Introduction:

A neuron is a structural and functional unit of the nervous system. The neuron body consists of a nucleus, dendrite:which receives signals from the afferent neuron, and axon:which conduct nerve impulses.

The axon has a small swelling at their end which is called axon terminal. This terminal lies very close to the dendrite of next neuron. This close proximity of each neuron is called synapse and the small gap between the synapses is called synaptic cleft. Synaptic transmission is a process of neuron communication.

If a bacterium using aerobic respiration was to degrade one small protein molecule into 8 molecules of pyruvic acid, how many ATP would that cell make? Assume there is no other carbon source.   Units cannot be entered in this style of question but the units of your answer should be in molecules of ATP.
If a bacterium using aerobic respiration was to degrade a 30 mM solution of citric acid, how many ATP would that cell make?  Assume no other carbon source is available.  Units cannot be entered in this style of question but the units of your answer should be in mM of ATP.
How much ATP will be produced during the following metabolic scenario: Aerobic respiration of a 5mM lipid solution that is made up of one glycerol and an 8-carbon fatty acid and 12-carbon fatty acid. Recall that when glycerol breaks down to Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate it costs one ATP but your get an extra FADH2. Every two carbons of a fatty acid break down to one acetyl-CoA. (pathways will be provided on the exam) Units cannot be entered in this style of question but the units of your answer should be in mM of ATP.
