- The following nutrient molecule is digested and transported to a cell where it undergoes further catabolism: но c-(CH;)14-CH3 di In the table below, list the important products of the complete B oxidation of this molecule. • In the first column of the table, write the chemical formula, name, or standard biochemical symbol for a product molecule. In the second column, write the total number of these molecules produced. • Only list the Important products, including (1) molecules with any of the carbon atoms that were in the original molecule, (2) energy storage molecules (like ATP), and (3) newly oxidized or reduced coenzymes. List each product molecule on a separate row. You can add more rows if you need them. • Be sure you write the number of product molecules formed by the complete B oxidation of the molecule above. • Do not include the products of any catabolic activity that happens before or after B oxidation, including any necessary activation.

- In different organisms sucrose can be cleaved either by hydrolysis or by phosphorolysis. Calculate the ATP yield per mole of sucrose metabolized by anaerobic glycolysis starting with (a) hydrolytic cleavage and (b) phosphorolytic cleavage.arrow_forwardDuring glycolysis, the enzyme glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) catalyzes the oxidation and phosphorylation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, forming 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate. This reaction, shown below, has a ΔG that is close to zero under cellular conditions. During gluconeogenesis, GAPDH catalyzes the reverse reaction, in which 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate is reduced and dephosphorylated. Given this information, which of the following conditions are most likely to directly alter the relative rates of the forward and reverse reactions? (select two answers) changes in the relative concentrations of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate changes in the relative concentrations of NAD+ and NADH decreased cellular concentration of pyruvate increased cellular concentration of glucose regulation of GAPDH activityarrow_forwardThe oxidation of Gly-3-P to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate proceeds with an unfavorable AG which equals 6.3 KJ/mol, yet the flow through this point in the glycolytic pathway proceeds smoothly.
