Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
In citric acid cycle the eight enzyme with name that indicates the reverse reaction should be given.
Concept Introduction:
Citric Acid Cycle: It involves 8 series reaction which converts acetyl group present in acetyl coenzyme A into 2
(b)
Interpretation:
In glycolysis the enzyme with name that indicates the reverse reaction should be given.
Concept introduction:
Glycolysis: It is pathway which describes conversion of one molecule of glucose into 2
pyruvate molecules. It involves totally 10 set of reactions with it.
Protein catabolism: It is defined as breakdown of proteins into smaller units that is into amino acids gets transported finally
Citric Acid Cycle: It involves 8 series reaction which converts acetyl group present in acetyl coenzyme A into 2
Substrate: The molecule where the reaction takes place with help of enzymes.
Enzyme: The proteins that helps
Oxidation: The oxidation is reaction that involves addition of oxygen atom or loss of electrons or removal of hydrogen atom present in the chemical compound.
Reduction: It involves removal of oxygen or addition of hydrogen to the chemical compound.
Coenzyme: They are non-proteins molecules which helps enzymes for catalyzing the reaction.

- 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_forward17. In the urea cycle, ions are converted to urea. Da. pynuvate Ob. sodium Oc, ammonium Od. glutamate 18. Amino acids that are degraded into are termed ketogenic. Oa. a-ketoglutarate b. oxaloacetate Oc. fumarate Od. acetyl CoA 19. When 100 mg of a substance are required daily by the body, the substance would be classified as a a. micronutrient Ob. macronutrient C. nonessential nutrient d. more than one choice is correct 20. What role do most of the water-soluble vitamins have in the body? ca. catalysis b. hormone precursors Oc. components of cell membranes d. coenzymesarrow_forwardNADH and FADH2 can "create" ATP only if the cell can do electron transport True Falsearrow_forward
