Glucose is split into two molecules called pyruvate and two ATP molecules are generated per molecule of glucose as well as two molecules of NADH. Also Glucose takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. Glycolysis can occur with or without oxygen. Without oxygen it is called fermentation with oxygen it is the first stage of the cellular respiration. • What is the role of the citric acid cycle?
The specific substrate in this case that is acted by Aldolase B is fructose-1-phosphate. This is later converted into DHAP and glyceraldehyde. The product, once finished, will then enter the glycolysis cycle to form ATP (Hudon-Miller, 2012c). Role of Aldolase B in the Breakdown of Fructose Aldolase B is found mostly in the liver but can also be present at lower levels in the kidney and intestinal cells. It is involved in breaking down a simple sugar called fructose.
Describe the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates and the regulation of blood glucose Carbohydrate is a polymer made up of monomers called glucose. There are two types of glucose namely alpha glucose and beta glucose. Carbohydrate is the main substrate which produces energy for any mechanism such as metabolic reactions, active transport and the movement of vesicles. In living organism such as human, carbohydrate is stored as glycogen where mostly be found in muscle. However, glycogen cannot diffuse through the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane so it must be broken down into smaller molecules known as glucose which can diffuse through the glucose co-transport channel protein spun across the phospholipid bilayer.
Describe how the storage of molecules is broken down and used to produce ATP. The process of ATP formation occurs when you inhale or exhale. In this cycle beta oxidation occurs causing fatty acids to be broken down into two carbons which forms
Aldolase B is considered the chief aldolase isoenzyme that is responsible for fructose metabolism and gluconeogenesis within the liver. This is turn, produces fructose 1,6-biphosphate from the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. When fructose is ingested, the body cannot change its energy storage substance glycogen to glucose. When glucose builds up in the liver, the blood sugar falls resulting in hypoglycemia. (PubmedHealth, 2009) Fructose 1 phosphate which is the substrate of Aldolase B is split by Aldolase.
Mixed Solutions: If 1 mmole of glucose (180mg=1mOsm) and 1 mmole of NaCl (58mg=2mmOsm) are put into a beaker and distilled water added to make 1 liter, the osmolarity is 3 mOSm/L. OSMOSIS CALCULATIONS: 1. Calculate the number of grams of NaCl needed to prepare 100 mL of a 280mOsm.L Solution. (280mosm/l) *(1L/1000mL)*(100mm/1)*(29mg/1mosm)*(1g/1000mg)=0.812g 2. Calculate the number of grams of glucose needed to prepare 100mL of a 280 msm/L glucose solution.
C6 H12 O6 = 2C3 H6 O3 + 2ATP (lactate) This is a structure of ATP ATP contains sugar which is Ribose, a base which is Adenine and three phosphate groups. Biological systems transfer the energy in glucose to ATP because unlike glucose ATP releases its energy instantly in a single reaction and also the hydrolysis of ATP releases a small amount of energy, ideal for fuelling reactions in the body. Glucose is obtained from food; we eat pasta which is a carbohydrate which is then broken down into glucose by the digestive system. The process which breaks this down is known as catabolism, this is the breakdown of food components, breaking down
Glycolysis plus the citric acid cycle can convert the carbons of glucose to _________ , storing the energy as ATP, _____________ and ___________. * B. pyruvate, lactic acid, CO2, NADH, FADH2 2. At the end of glycolysis, each molecule of glucose has yielded 2 molecules of _______, 2 molecules of ________, and a net of 2 molecules of _________. * D. pyruvate; NADH; ATP 3. Trematol is a metabolic poison derived from the white snake root.
Controlled Variables. temperature; pH; sucrase + sucrose incubation time 4. Describe what is measured as an indicator of sucrase activity and why this is an indicator of sucrase activity. The amount of product produced is an indicator of sucrase activity. This is an indicatore because sucrase is an enzyme found in the small intestine that catalyzes the splitting of the disaccharide sucrose into the monosaccharides glucos and fructose.
It will be broken into glucose then the action of glucose will be burned. The glucose will be the origin of energy. 2. B. What are the main hormones in glucose?
