Summary Introduction

To determine: How much ATP is made to the cell from a single glucose molecule by the operation of glycolysis, the formation of acetyl CoA, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.

Concept introduction: Aerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration, in which the oxygen is consumed as a reactant to generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP). It is the most efficient mode of respiration in most of the eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. It involves complete combustion or degradation of sugars or organic fuels and produces carbon dioxide (CO2), water, and ATP.

How much ATP is made available to the cell from a single glucose molecule by the operation of (1) glycolysis, (2) the formation of acetyl CoA, (3) the citric acid cycle, and (4) the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis?Where does each of these processes take place in a eukaryotic cell?
a) Describe the three irreversible reactions of the Citric Acid Cycle. Ensure to indicate their purpose/role, the substrates and products, the enzyme involved, and any significant features of the reaction. b) Why are these reactions considered irreversible (why can't they be reversed)? c) Using one of the reactions as an example, explain why it is important for the cell that the reaction is irreversible.
What is the yield of ATP when each of the following substrates is completely oxidized to CO2 by a mammalian cellhomogenate? Assume that glycolysis, the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation are fully active.  a) fructose-1,6-bisphosphate b) dihydroxyacetone phosphate
