6.25% of the energy contained in glucose is lost during the storage process. Glycolysis produces the molecules that are processed by the citric acid cycle.

  • Each dietary glucose molecule produces 32 molecules of ATP when it enters the glycolysis and oxidation pathways directly.
  • A net 2 ATP are produced during glycolysis for every gram of glucose. Per glucose, the citric acid cycle generates an extra 2 ATP. 28 ATP are produced by oxidative phosphorylation using the byproducts of glucose catabolism.
  • 32 ATP molecules are created in this way. A cell could potentially store dietary glucose for later use, in the form of glycogen.
  • One ATP must be used in this process in order to create glucose-1-phosphate (G1P).
  • After then, G1P and UTP (uridine triphosphate) combine to form uridine-diphospho-glucose (UDP-glucose or UDPG). The UTP substrate, which is used in this phase, indirectly consumes ATP.
  • Glycogen synthase can then utilise UDPG directly in the production of glycogen. This implies that each additional molecule added to a glycogen polymer uses up two ATP molecules.
  • If two ATP molecules are used up during the storage of glucose as glycogen, then 2/32 or 6.25% of the energy contained in glucose is lost during the storage process.

How do you test for odors during a lab investigation?
sleet_krkn [62]

Hey there! :)

During a lab investigation containing liquids of any kind, you should always test the odor by waving your hand over the top of an open container and sniffing cautiously. This is called wafting, and should always be used in the case that a harmful chemical is being tested.

The first Kyoto Protocol commitment period ended last 2012. Its second commitment period under the Doha Amendment will last until 2020.

The human body is composed of cells, organs, organ systems, and tissues. How are these organized?
Airida [17]

The correct answer for this question is (A) Groups of cells form tissues.

In multicellular animals, a group of similar cells alongwith inter-cellular substances perform a specific function. Such an organization is called tissue. All complex animals consist of only four basic type of tissues. These tissues are organized in specific proportion and pattern to form an organ like stomach, lung, heart and kidney. When two or more organs perform a common function by their physical and/or chemical interaction , they together form organ system, eg., digestive system, respiratory system, etc. Cells, tissues, organs and organ system split up the work in a way that exhibits division of labour and contribute to the survival of the body as whole.
