Since humans cannot synthesize fats with double bonds past carbon #9, it is "essential" and must be obtained from the diet. Hope you like salmon! If a serving of salmon contains 500.0 mg of ALA and all of it is completely oxidized via B-oxidation and the TCA, how many grams of water at room temperature can be brought to a boil using that energy? (Specific heat of water: 4.184 J/mol; heat of vaporization of water: 40.65 kJ/mol; molar mass of ATP: 507.2 g/mol; DG° of ATP hydrolysis = -30.3 kJ/mol)arrow_forwardThe structural formula for the open-chain form of galactose is CH Н—ҫ—ОН Но—С—н НО—С—Н Н—ҫ—ОН CH-ОН (a) Is this molecule a sugar?
