Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reactions in the citric acid cycle which forms a product with a new asymmetric centre has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Citric acid cycle: The cycle in which acetyl group of each molecule of acetyl-CoA is converted into two molecules of CO2  It is a series of eight reactions.

NAD+Molecule: It is the oxidized form of Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) which exists in all cells and needed for activation of enzymes.

NADHmolecule: It is coenzyme which gets oxidized on reducing another compound. The oxidized form of NADHisNAD+.

Glucose-6-phosphate detours to the hexose monophosphate shunt pathway in erythrocytes because:     Question 73 options:   A)  They lack mitochondria making them incapable of the TCA cycle   B)  They lack endoplasmic reticulum making them incapable of the TCA cycle   C)  Erythrocytes have no energy needs   D)  Erythrocytes utilize glucose directly for energy
Fatty acids and triglycerides are an important source of nutrition and a dense form of stored energy. Digestion of fats yields more energy per gram than digestion of carbohydrates. Each turn on the B-oxidation spiral results in the formation of a new acetyl COA molecule. This molecule can then be used to generate more energy in A) fatty acid synthesis B) ketolysis C) glycolysis D) tricarboxylic acid cycle E) oxidative phosphorylation
