- The first step of the metabolic process known as glycolysis is the conversion of glucose to glucose- 6-phosphate. This process has a positive value for rG' Glucose + Pi Glucose-6-phosphate + H2O rG' = +13.8 kJ/mol-rxn This reaction is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP ATP + H2O ADP + Pi rG' = -30.5 kJ/mol-rxn What is the sum of these two equations and the value of rG' for the coupled reaction? Is the coupled reaction product-favored at equilibrium?arrow_forwardWhy is the conversion of lactic acid from the blood into glucose in the liver in an organism’s best interest?arrow_forwardShort answer questions. You must show work indicating production or consumption of molecules such as ATP or NADH in the various pathways involved in these questions. Consider that a molecule of alanine can be converted to pyruvate by an oxidation reaction that produces one NADH. If the liver is to make a molecule of glucose from alanine, how many molecules of alanine are required? How many ATP equivalents are required?arrow_forward
- Muscle does not provide glucose for the brain during times of starvation. Why? You may choose more than one answer. Muscle lacks sufficient glucose stores. Muscle uses the glucose for movement to go find food. Liver provides glucose for brain Glucagon prevents the secretion of glucose Muscle lacks the enzymes necessary to produce free glucosearrow_forwardThe reaction A + B --> C has a "G of C = 15 kcal/mol. How many ATP molecules are needed to provide the energy needed:arrow_forward12. ADP is a component of which of the following? a. NAD * Ob. FAD C. ATP d. more than one choice is correctarrow_forward
- How many molecules of ATP are produced during a single turn of the B- oxidation cycle? O 5 O 2 O 3 0 4 Ne • Previousarrow_forwardAt what point in photosynthesis is the proton motive force generated? in the light harvesting complex of photosystem I| as electrons are passed to the enzyme NADP+ reductase as electrons move between photosystem II and photosystem I in the Calvin cycle O as electrons are passed to the primary electron acceptorarrow_forwardGlycolysis, A. is the breakdown of glucose to two pyruvic acid molecules. B. requires the input of two ATP molecules. C. produces two NADH molecules. D. does not require oxygen. E. all of the above.arrow_forward
- Which statements describe electron transport chain events? Two electrons pass between cytochromes through a series of redox reactions. Citrate metabolism results in the formation of one FADH2 and three NADH. NADH releases two hydrogen ions and donates two electrons to coenzyme Q. ATP synthase uses the energy from the redox reactions to generate ATP.arrow_forward. In the electron transport chain, the hydrogen ions enter the inner compartment of mitochondria through special channels formed by: 1. acetyl CoA 2.ATP synthase 3.chromophores 4.coenzyme A 5.oxygenarrow_forward
