Summary Introduction
To describe:
What should be considered before using a screening method for cystic fibrosis in a population?
Introduction:
Cystic fibrosis is a condition of hereditary disorder that affects the exocrine glands. It causes abnormal thick production of mucus. It leads to the blockage of intestines, pancreatic ducts, and bronchus. A defect in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene causes cystic fibrosis.

The lipid is composed of one glycerol molecule connected to two fatty acid tails. One fatty acid is 12 carbons long and the other fatty acid is 18 carbons long in the figure below. Use the information below to determine how much ATP will be produced from the glycerol part of the lipid. Then, in part B, determine how much ATP is produced from the 2 fatty acids of the lipid. Finally put the NADH and ATP yields together from the glycerol and fatty acids (part A and B) to determine your total number of ATP produced per lipid.
