Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The amount of ATPs which is derived from the complete metabolic oxidation of one mole of alanine in a mammal, whether the corresponding energy yield in a fish be higher or lower, give reason, the amount of energy which is derived from the metabolic oxidation of one mole of isoleucine to CÓ, H2O, and NH3 should be identified along with the amount of energy which is derived from the metabolic oxidation of one mole of tyrosine to CÓ, H2O, and NH3.
Concept introduction:
The citric acid cycle is termed as amphibolic as it is both catabolic and anabolic in nature. The aerobic catabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and amino acids take place. This cycle yields energy in the form of GTP or ATP and reducing power as FADH2 or NADH2.
