Biology
1 answer:
Darina [25.2K]1 year 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.

A laboratory study may help you to determine the location of your visual blind spot, but you will not notice it outside of the l
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

blind spot will not impair your vision

Explanation:

Blind spot may be defined as the point of our eyes where the optic nerve leaves our eye, which creates a "blind" spot as none of the receptor cells are located there.

A blind spot can only be studies in a laboratory because blind spot does not impair our vision. The blind spot falls on nose side of our retina, that means that the objects to our right side falls on the right eye's blind spot and objects to our left may fall on the left eye's blind spot. Thus, the blind spot  normally does not impair our vision, since our eyes are moving and because our one eye catches what the other eye misses.

How do cells get the proteins they need from foods?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
I believe the correct answer to this question is B.

This is the correct answer because the other options can be eliminated and this choice represents the proper process described in the question. Answer choice A describes photosynthesis, which is not being asked about in the question. Answer choices C and D are either partially false or describe an unmatching process with the question.

I hope this is correct and helps you!
