Chapter 2, Problem 10CP
Summary Introduction
To identify:
The type of reaction in which a six carbon molecule is converted in to three carbon molecule.
Introduction:
The conversion of a complex molecule into a simpler form of molecule is called decomposition reaction. This reaction releases energy with the final products in order to perform vital function like movement, growth and reproduction in the body.

- Suppose that after you mixed 10 mL of milk with 1 mL of lactase solution and waited three minutes, you found that your mixture of milk and lactase contained glucose. What are two possible interpretations of this result? (Hint: Think about the possibility that, before digestion, milk contains either a disaccharide or a monosaccharide.)arrow_forwardIn enzymatic hydrolysis, the bonds of starch are broken to obtain glucose. Ā How does this process work? What kind of reaction occurs?arrow_forwardFor each of the four possibilities listed below (a through d), only one answer is correct and the others are false.Ā Identify the correct statement and explain why the others are false. In your answer, write CORRECT next to the statement that you think is true, and ONLY for the ones that you think are false, explain what is wrong with the statementĀ . When glucose reacts with ATP to form glucose-6-phosphate (as shown on the figure below): 1. The synthesis of glucose-6-phosphate is exergonic 2. ADP is at a higher energy level than ATP 3. Glucose-6-phosphate is at a higher energy level than glucose 4. Because ATP donates a phosphate to glucose, this is not a coupled reactionarrow_forward
- The enzyme sucrase splits the disaccharide sugar sucrose into the monosaccharides glucose and fructose. What prevents the glucose and fructose molecules from reentering the active site and reforming a sucrose molecule?arrow_forwardWhich enzyme uses water to break the glycosidic bonds of glycogen?arrow_forwardThe movement of energy between living organisms is a matter of atoms, molecules and compounds being built into larger molecules or being broke into smaller ones. Reviewing the two equations for energy transference, which one is building energy? 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy Ā --------> Ā C6H12O6 + 6O2 Ā C6H12O6 + 6O2Ā Ā --------->Ā Ā 6CO2 + 6H2O + energyarrow_forward
- What effect does an enzyme have on the required activation energy of a reaction?arrow_forwardWhy do we refer to the conversion of six molecules of carbon dioxide (six carbon atoms) to one molecule of glucose (also six carbon atoms) as a net reaction?arrow_forwardUse drawings to explain how an enzyme (such as hexokinase, mentioned in the text) can distinguish its normal substrate (here d-glucose) from the optical isomer l-glucose, which is not a substrate. (hint: remembering that a carbon atom forms four single bonds that are tetrahedrally arranged and that the optical isomers are mirror images of each other around such a bond, draw the substrate as a simple tetrahedron with four different corners and then draw its mirror image. using this drawing, indicate why only one optical isomer might bind to a schematic active site of an enzyme.)arrow_forward
