Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The abbreviation for the oxidized and reduced forms of flavin adenine dinucleotide is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Anabolism and catabolism are the two pathways of
(b)
Interpretation:
The abbreviation for the oxidized and reduced forms of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Anabolism and catabolism are the two pathways of metabolism. In anabolic pathway, large molecules are formed by the combination of small molecules. Anabolism is totally opposite to that of catabolism process. On the other hand, the catabolic pathway involves the breakdown of larger molecules into smaller molecules.
