The correct answer is: C) the extraction of energy from high-energy electrons remaining from glycolysis and the citric acid cycle
Electrons from electron carriers (NADH and FADH from glycolysis and citric acid cycle) donate electrons to the electron transport chain and that causes changes in protein complexes of electron transport chain. As a consequence, protein complexes pump H+ across a selectively permeable cell membrane from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space of mitochondria. H+ can only get back and pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane with the help of ATP synthase (down their electrochemical gradient). ATP synthase turned by the force of the H+ diffusing through it forms ATP by adding a phosphate to ADP. This type of ATP synthesis is called oxidative phosphorylation and it is based on chemiosmosis-movement of ions across a selectively permeable membrane.
Answer:
a. First Step: The sugars are broken down to simple glucose molecules and the proteins and lipids are broken down to acetyl-CoA molecules. No energy is produced in this first step.
b. Second Step: Glycolysis converts the glucose to two molecules of pyruvate. Six ATP molecules are produced in this step.
c. Third Step: Oxidation of each pyruvate produces two molecules of acetyl-CoA. Six ATP molecules are produced in this step.
d. Fourth Step: Two acetyl-CoA molecules go through the Krebs (citric acid) cycle. Twenty-four ATP molecules are produced through this process.
e. All of the above steps are part of the break down of the candy bar's macromolecules.
Explanation:
Butterfly shape - Each fluorine is attached to the sulfur by a single covalent bond. The SF3 molecule is very short-lived and its structure has not been determined experimentally. It is calculated to adopt a butterfly-shaped molecular geometry, belonging to the Cs point group.
Answer:
Adenosine 5'-triphosphate, or ATP, is the most abundant energy carrier molecule in cells
