The carbon atom(s) of pyruvate is(are) first converted to carbon dioxide by pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is the second number of carbon of pyruvate goes to oxidation and convert it to CO2 in Krebs cycle.

<h3>what is Krebs cycle ?</h3>

Krebs cycle is also known as citric acid cycle it is the conversion of sugar to the direct energy in the form of ATP which further goes to mitochondria as it is the power house of the human cell.

Pyruvate molecule release second number carbon from the chain and undergoes oxidation to form the CO2.

Therefore, second number carbon atom will converts to carbon dioxide.

During beta-oxidation of fatty acids, ___________ is produced in peroxisomes but not in mitochondria. A) acetyl-CoA B) FADH 2 C)
stepan [7]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes <u>where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide</u> (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.

Answer:

228 mL

Explanation:

M1*V1 = M2*V2

M1 = 6.58 M

V1 = ?

M2 = 3.00 M

V2 = 500 mL

V1 = M2*V2/M1 = 3.00M*500.mL/6.58 M = 228 mL
