- What are the products of the complete hydrolysis of a triacylglycerol?arrow_forwardLabel the reaction as an oxidation or reduction and give the coenzyme, NAD + or NADH, which might be used to carry out the transformation. Write the reaction using skeletal structures with curved arrow symbolism.arrow_forwardWhat is adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ?arrow_forward
- Define the term peptization and mention its cause.arrow_forwardDefine the term hydrolysis?arrow_forwardWhich of the terms hydrolysis, saponification, hydrogenation, and oxidation apply to each of the following reaction changes? More than one term may apply in a given situation. 1) Carbon-carbon double bonds are broken. 2) Fatty acids are among the products.arrow_forward
- GLYCOLYSIS: 1A) Starting with glucose (in the open-chain Fisher projection), draw out the molecular structures for each step of glycolysis. For each step, include the name of the enzyme that catalyzes the reaction. 1B) What is the net reaction of glycolysis? CITRIC ACID CYCLE: 2A) Starting with acetyl-coenzymeA and oxaloacetate, draw out the molecular structures for each step of the citric acid cycle. For each step, include the name of the enzyme that catalyzes the reaction. 2B) What is the net reaction of the citric acid cycle? What happens to each product? OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION: 3A) Thoroughly explain the biological significance of NADH/H* and FADH2 and their roles in oxidative phosphorylation. 3B) Describe and diagram the general pathway of the electrons from NADH/H+ and FADH₂ to O₂ during the electron transport chain. 3C) What is "chemiosmotic coupling", and what is its relationship to ATP synthesis? 3D) During oxidative phosphorylation, what is oxidized and what is…arrow_forwardATP is produced during synthesis of compounds. O True O Falsearrow_forwardPlease detail the chemical reaction catalyzed by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). (Provide details not just the chemicals involved)arrow_forward
