In the conversion of glucose to pyruvate, only one of the actual steps involve electron transfer.

Glycolysis involves a series of reactions which derive energy from glucose by splitting it into two three-carbon molecules i.e. pyruvates. It occurs in the cytoplasm and does not require oxygen.

The sixth step in this process involves electron transfer in which two half reactions occur simultaneously:-

  1. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (one of the three-carbon sugars formed in the initial phase) is oxidized, and
  2. NAD+ is reduced to NADH and H+.

The overall reaction is exergonic i.e. energy releasing. The energy is used later to phosphorylate the molecule leading to the formation of  1,3-bisphosphoglycerate.

How was the lunar regolith formed?
Sav [38]

Answer:

On the Moon, regolith occurs as a mixture of powdery dust and broken rock. Lunar regolith is formed by the impact of meteorites on the body's surface. The force of the collision melts some of the impacted regolith to form objects known as agglutinates and heaves debris (ejecta) outward from the point of impact. need brainliest pls

Anettt [7]

Answer:

Aa

Explanation:

In Punnett Square, you are bringing the letters on the top to the numbered squares, if that makes sense. It is to predict the genotype of offspring.

So square 1, on the left is A, and on the top is A, so it would be AA.

For square 2, on the left is a, and on the top is A, so it would be Aa.

For square 3, on the left is A, and on the top is A, so it is AA.

Square 4, your question, has a on the left, and A on the top, so it is Aa.

Hope it makes sense. You should probably watch a Punnett Square tutorial online or something for a full and more general explanation.
