Darina [25.2K]2 years ago
7 0

The true statements are:

  • Substrate level phosphorylation ocvurs during Pyruvate oxidation
  • 32 ATP molecules can be made by cellular respiration but only 2 ATP molecules when oxygen is lacking
  • Electrons move from protein to protein due to increasing electronegativity in the electron transport chain
  • ADP is phosphorylated in the matrix of the mitochondria during oxidative phosphorylation
  • ATP inhibits pyruvate dehydrogenase by feedback inhibition

<h3>What is glucose oxidation?</h3>

Glucose oxidation refers to the process in the cells in which glucose molecules are oxidized to form ATP and carbon dioxide in the presence of oxygen.

The first stage of glucose oxidation is the conversion to pyruvate.

Pyruvate is oxidized to acetylCoA.

AcetylCoA enters the citric acid cycle to produce reducing equivalents, NADH for the electron transport chain.

  • The true statements about pyruvate oxidation is that there is substrate level phosphorylation during the process
  • When there is sufficient oxygen, 36 ATP molecules can be made (theoretically) by cellular respiration. However, when oxygen is lacking, only 2 ATP molecules are made.
  • In the electron transport chain of cellular respiration, electrons move from protein to protein due to increasing electronegativity
  • During oxidative phosphorylation, ADP is phosphorylated in the matrix of the mitochondria
  • Aerobic respiration can be regulated by feedback inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase by ATP.

Pretend that you are writing a letter to the president proposing ways that the US can reduce its contribution to climate change.
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Dear Mr. President,

Your strong voice has called attention to the risks of human-induced climate change and the need to take timely and effective steps to address it. We are pleased to report further progress in our efforts to advise you on climate policy options that could help encourage these steps.

- (Explain what you learned in class today ) I don't know what you were taught in class so you have to figure what to put here.  

Mr. President, our temperatures are consistently rising while moisture is increasingly evaporating. Forest management is merely one piece of the puzzle — something our own firefighters would be quick to remind you. Since 2009, our state has spent more than $130 million on forest health and fire preparedness. These events still overwhelm our residents and resources, because these fires are unlike anything people have seen before.

Sincerely,

Explanation:

hope this helps!
