I think it’s m(C6H12O6) = 856 g
M(C6H12O6) = 12*6+1*12+16*6 = 180 g/mol
n(C6H12O6) = m/M = 856 g / 180 g/mol = 4.756 mol
n(CO2) = 6*4.756 = 28.536 mol
M(CO2) = 12+16*2 = 44 g/mol
m(CO2) = n*M = 28.536mol*44g/mol = 1255.584 g
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
Question: Why do organisms without oxygen need to convert pyruvate to lactate?
A) because pyruvate is toxic to the cells
B) in order to regenerate NAD+
C) in order to use lactate in the citric acid cycle
D) because lactate is needed to produce ATP
Answer:
B) in order to regenerate NAD+
Explanation:
Kreb's cycle and electron transport chain (ETC) are the aerobic stages of cellular respiration. ETC regenerates NAD+ and FAD+ by oxidation of NADH and FADH2 produced during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. Here, oxygen serves as the terminal electron acceptor.
Glycolytic reactions use NAD+ as an electron acceptor and produce NADH. Therefore, a constant supply of NAD+ is required to sustain glycolysis. In absence of oxygen, ETC cannot occur and organisms convert pyruvate into lactate. Pyruvate is reduced in lactate and NADH serves as the electron donor. Thereby, lactate fermentation regenerates NAD+ to continue the process of glycolysis.
The epiglottis is a flap in the back of your tongue that prevents food from entering the larynx. When your mouth is closed, the epiglottis is in place and blocks the larynx opening. If your mouth is open, the flap lifts and the larynx is no longer blocked so you can breathe. This is why it's important to not chew with your mouth open... if you do, then food can go down the larynx by mistake.
that's all wrong the real answer is b.99.3
Three variables can be used .
1. Sun 2. Moon 3. Earth
These are suggestions that lizzie can control:
1.<span> Discover how long the Earth takes to orbit the Sun
2. how many hours it takes the Earth to spin around once on its own axis, 3. how long the Moon takes to orbit the Earth</span>
