(a)
Interpretation:
Whether carbon dioxide can be used to interpret alcoholic fermentation should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Alcoholic fermentation is the anaerobic pathway, which uses sugar such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose to convert into alcohol and carbon dioxides. During this process energy is released in the form of ATP. Overall in this process, 2 moles of glucose are converted to 2 moles of ethanol and 2 mole of carbon dioxide, yielding 2 moles of ATP.
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason of dependence of glucose fermentation on phosphate is to be determined.

(c)
Interpretation:
The reason why more phosphate can lead to more yield of carbon dioxide during alcohol fermentation is to be determined.

- If there are 20uM of a GLUT2 transporter on the surface of a cell, each able to move 8 per second, and 50mM glucose outside of the cell, what is the flux into the cell in mM/sec?arrow_forwardA transporter is responsible for antiporting calcium and glucose. The transporter brings glucose into the cell and sends calcium out of the cell. If blood [calcium] = 2.55mM and intracellular [calcium] = 7uM, blood [glucose] = 5.2mM, and intracellular [glucose] = 40uM, what is the free energy of transport?
