In aerobic respiration, cells generate heat as they grow. The amount of heat generated by cells
is proportional to the amount of oxygen they consume. Accordingly, it was found that 460 kJ is generated
per gmol of O2 consumed.
Suppose that you need to choose a fermenter for optimal growth of Bacillus subtilis cells. It is known that
the maximum oxygen demand of B. subtilis is 100 mol m3 h1. A vendor offers you a reactor with a
cylindrical shape (2.8 m in diameter) and 15 m³ volume. The reactor includes a cooling coil with 30 m
length and a pipe diameter of 6 cm, through which. For practical purposes, power input by the rotating
impeller inside the bioreactor can be neglected.
Does this reactor meet the cooling requirements of your production process?

You inoculate two test tubes with the same amount of identical growth medium and with the same number of
identical yeast cells and grow these cells under identical conditions except for the presence or absence of
oxygen.
b) The cells of both cultures convert glucose to pyruvate via glycolysis, and then further metabolize pyruvate.
Are the cells of both cultures able to obtain the same amount of ATP from glycolysis? Explain.
Under anaerobic conditions, the carbon from pyruvate will ultimately be found in which molecule?
Under aerobic conditions, the carbon from pyruvate will ultimately be found in which molecule?
