Biology

Anastasy [175]4 years ago
5 0
Fatty acid can not be used to make glucose because once glucose is converted to aceltyl coA it can not be converted back to glucose again. The pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction that converts pyruvate to aceyl CoA is an irreversible reaction. Lipid metabolism produced acetyl CoA through beta oxidation, because of this pyruvate and oxaloacetate can not be converted to glucose through gluconeogenesis. Besides, the two carbon atoms in acetyl CoA molecule are lost upon entering the citric acid cycle, thus the acetyl CoA is used for energy.

What is the final electron acceptor at the end of the electron transport chain in photosynthesis?.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

Oxygen is the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, which considers oxidative phosphorylation. Without oxygen, the electrons will be upheld, in the long run causing the electron transport chain to stop. This will make the results of glycolysis go through aging as opposed to going to the citrus extract cycle. Without oxygen, oxidative phosphorylation (the electron transport chain) is inconceivable, however substrate-level phosphorylation (glycolysis) proceeds.
