Photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP. The glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. While water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with<span> hydrogen to form water.</span>

The net energy yield from this pathway, where glucose is broken down through several steps forming pyruvate, is ________ molecul
stepan [7]

Answer:

2 molecules of ATP and 2 molecules of NADH

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration (break down of glucose to extract energy) which occurs in the cytoplasm. Glycolysis is a pathway common to all living organisms- prokaryotes and eukaryotes, as it does not require oxygen to occur.

Glycolysis occurs in two major phases (ten steps) requiring 10 enzymes catalyzing each step; the energy-requiring phase and the energy-requiring phase.

In the energy-requiring phase, the starting molecule (glucose) gets rearranged in a series of chemical reactions, and two phosphate groups gets attached to it producing fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is unstable, This modified sugar then splits in half due to its instability to form two different but inter-convertible phosphate-bearing three-carbon sugars (Dihydroxyacetonephosphate, DHAP and Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, G3P). Because the phosphates used in these steps come from 2 ATP molecules, 2 ATP molecules get used up in this phase

All the DHAP molecules get converted to G-3-P in order to enter the next phase.

In the energy-recovering phase, the 3-carbon sugar (G3P) is converted into another three-carbon molecule called pyruvate, through a series of reactions. In these reactions, two ATP and 1 NADH molecules are made. This recovery phase occurs twice (one for each of the two isomeric three-carbon sugars, DHAP and G3P). Hence, a total of 4 ATP and 2 NADH molecules are produced in this phase.

Overall, Glycolysis converts one glucose (six-carbon) molecule to two pyruvate (three-carbon) molecules and a net release of 2 ATP molecules (4 overall - 2 used) and 2 NADH molecules.

Ms. sally ping has vaginal discharge, pain in the llq and rlq, dysmenorrhea, and a gonococcal infection. a likely diagnosis is:
mariarad [96]
A likely diagnosis would be a pelvic inflammatory disease. It is an infection of the reproductive system of a female. It would include the ovaries, uterus, cervix and the fallopian tube. It is commonly caused by STI or sexually transmitted infection like gonorrhea and <span>chlamydia</span>. Symptoms include pain in the pelvis and the lower belly, heavy discharge with unpleasant smell, pain during intercourse, bleeding, fever and pain when urinating. If this disease is not treated well it could lead to more serious problems or complications like trouble in getting pregnant and pain in the pelvic area that does not go away.

B. Check distal CSM, apply a sling and swathe, and transport the patient.

C. Check distal CSM, apply a traction splint, and transport the patient.

D. Continue splinting and report the popping sound to the triage nurse when you arrive at the hospital.

The ANSWER IS SURELY B.

B. Check distal CSM, apply a sling and swathe, and transport the patient.

Explanation:

In assessing Musculoskeletal Injury as in this case, check for Circulation, sensation, and movement, apply a sling and bandage/swathe followed by transporting the patient quickly to the hospital for further checkup
