Interpretation: To identify the process that converts glucose to glycogen.
Concept introduction: Carbohydrates are the
Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrate units that cannot be hydrolyzed further to give the smallest units. Polysaccharides contain many carbohydrate units that vary from 100 to 50,000 monosaccharide units.

- Fir Go Carbon monoxide poisoning is lethal because CO binds to hemoglobin tighter than 0₂. Which one of the following components of the citric acid cycle will be depleted first in a carbon monoxide poisoning? acetyl-CoA citrate Oisocitrate NAD O None because O2 is not part of the Citric Acid Cyclearrow_forward15.7) Determine whether each of the following changes is an oxidation or reduction. a) gain of electrons reduction b) loss of electrons oxidation c) Fe²+ to Fe³+ oxidation d) NADH to NAD+ oxidation lost bond to hydrogen atom e) FAD to FADH₂ reduction gained bond to hydrogen atom f) CH4 to CO₂ oxidation gained bonds to oxygen atoms and lost bonds to hydrogen atoms g) NAD+ to NADH reduction gained bond to hydrogen atom EXPLANATION: A useful mnemonic to differentiate oxidation and reduction is the term "OILRIG" (Oxidation is the Loss of electrons; Reduction is the Gain of electrons). It is possible to identify redox reactions for inorganic compounds by inspecting the chemical equation and determining if electrons are transferred from one species to another. If the charge of an atom or ion in a reactant was increased (toward positive) in the conversion of reactants to products, an oxidation occurred. If the charge of an atom or ion in a reactant was decreased (toward negative) in the…arrow_forwardWhat are the products from one turn of the citric acid cycle? Check all that apply.
