Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The starting molecule and product for 2 steps of gluconeogenesis should be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
The metabolic process by which sugars are produced from non-carbohydrates by a catabolic process is known as Gluconeogenesis.
(b)
Interpretation:
The starting molecule and product for the 5th step of gluconeogenesis should be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
Metabolism may be defined as the process of breakdown of nutrients into smaller molecules (catabolic process) and the combination of smaller molecules to form complex molecules (anabolic process) to provide energy.
The metabolic process by which sugars are produced from non-carbohydrates by a catabolic process is known as Gluconeogenesis.
(c)
Interpretation:
The starting molecule and product for 8th step of gluconeogenesis should be predicted.

The dominant macrostate or configuration of a system is the macrostate with the greatest weight W. Are both statements correct?arrow_forwardFor the single step reaction: A + B → 2C + 25 kJ If the activation energy for this reaction is 35.8 kJ, sketch an energy vs. reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction. Be sure to label the following on your diagram: each of the axes, reactant compounds and product compounds, enthalpy of reaction, activation energy of the forward reaction with the correct value, activation energy of the backwards reaction with the correct value and the transition state. In the same sketch you drew, after the addition of a homogeneous catalyst, show how it would change the graph. Label any new line "catalyst" and label any new activation energy.arrow_forward
