Chapter 16, Problem 56P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Whether carbon dioxide can be used to interpret alcoholic fermentation should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Alcoholic fermentation is the anaerobic pathway, which uses sugar such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose to convert into alcohol and carbon dioxides. During this process energy is released in the form of ATP. Overall in this process, 2 moles of glucose are converted to 2 moles of ethanol and 2 mole of carbon dioxide, yielding 2 moles of ATP.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The reason of dependence of glucose fermentation on phosphate is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Alcoholic fermentation is the anaerobic pathway, which uses sugar such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose to convert into alcohol and carbon dioxides. During this process energy is released in the form of ATP. Overall in this process, 2 moles of glucose are converted to 2 moles of ethanol and 2 mole of carbon dioxide, yielding 2 moles of ATP.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The reason why more phosphate can lead to more yield of carbon dioxide during alcohol fermentation is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Alcoholic fermentation is the anaerobic pathway, which uses sugar such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose to convert into alcohol and carbon dioxides. During this process energy is released in the form of ATP. Overall in this process, 2 moles of glucose are converted to 2 moles of ethanol and 2 mole of carbon dioxide, yielding 2 moles of ATP.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The ratio of carbon dioxide to phosphate during fermentation is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Alcoholic fermentation is the anaerobic pathway, which uses sugar such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose to convert into alcohol and carbon dioxides. During this process, energy is released in the form of ATP. Overall in this process, 2 moles of glucose are converted to 2 moles of ethanol and 2 mole of carbon dioxide, yielding 2 moles of ATP.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

The hexose bisphosphate compound accumulated when fermentation is stopped.

Concept introduction:

Alcoholic fermentation is the anaerobic pathway, which uses sugar such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose to convert into alcohol and carbon dioxides. During this process, energy is released in the form of ATP. Overall in this process, 2 moles of glucose are converted to 2 moles of ethanol and 2 mole of carbon dioxide, yielding 2 moles of ATP.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
explain with proper details please. Compare the net production of ATP from four molecules of glucose (4 x C6) with that from one molecule of n-Tetracosanoic acid (Lignoceric acid, C24) as a result of oxidative metabolism (show your work). As a storage molecule, which is more energy efficient and why?
a. Calculate how  many carbons from an original glucose molecule will enter into the TCA cycle? (please provide your answer in number like 1, 2, 3)   b. Based on the question you answered above what happens to the carbons that do not enter the cycle (write what it converts into)?
In full details. Explain the significance of redox potentials formed by redox pairs in the electron transport chain.
