(a)
Interpretation: To determine the net gain or net loss in triphosphates (ATP, UTP, etc.) in glycolysis.
Concept introduction: Glycolysis is the
Triphosphate nucleotides provide energy to carry out the metabolic processes in the living cells. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), Cytidine triphosphate (CTP), Uridine triphosphate (UTP), and Guanosine triphosphate (GTP) are examples of triphosphate nucleotides.
(b)
Interpretation: To determine the net gain or net loss in triphosphates (ATP, UTP, etc.) in glycogenolysis.
Concept introduction: Glycogenolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glycogen to
Triphosphate nucleotides provide energy to carry out the metabolic processes in the living cells. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), Cytidine triphosphate (CTP), Uridine triphosphate (UTP), and Guanosine triphosphate (GTP) are examples of triphosphate nucleotides.
(c)
Interpretation: To determine the net gain or net loss in triphosphates (ATP, UTP, etc.) when glycogen glucose unit is converted to glucose.
Concept introduction: Glucose is a monosaccharide with the molecular formula
Triphosphate nucleotides provide energy to carry out the metabolic processes in the living cells. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), Cytidine triphosphate (CTP), Uridine triphosphate (UTP), and Guanosine triphosphate (GTP) are examples of triphosphate nucleotides.
(d)
Interpretation: To determine the net gain or net loss in triphosphates (ATP, UTP, etc.) when glycogen glucose unit is converted to lactate.
Concept introduction: Glycogenolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glycogen to
Lactate dehydrogenase enzymes convert pyruvate to lactate under anaerobic conditions in the human body. This anaerobic reduction of pyruvate to form lactate by enzymes is called lactate fermentation.
Triphosphate nucleotides provide energy to carry out the metabolic processes in the living cells. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), Cytidine triphosphate (CTP), Uridine triphosphate (UTP), and Guanosine triphosphate (GTP) are examples of triphosphate nucleotides.
