Answer:
The added carbon is supplied by acetyl CoA and the 2 eliminated carbons are released as CO2.
Explanation:
TCA cycle or citric acid cycle occurs in the mitocondrial matrix.
The ist step of TCA cycle deals with the formation of citrate molecule bt the addition of Acetyl CoA with oxaloacetate. The acetyl CoA is a 2 carbon compound formed from pyruvate by the catalytic activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase .
The 2 eliminated carbons are released as carbon di oxide or CO2.The CO2 molecule is eliminated during the formation of alpha ketoglutarate from isocitrate .The second CO2 molecule is eliminated when alpha ketoglutarate is converted to succinyl CoA.
Answer:
All statements are true and explain the function of most organelles present in the cell.
Explanation:
I remember the following:
-The nucleus directs cell activity: the nucleus is where the genetic information is found and by means of gene expression it controls the cellular functions.
-Ribosomes produce proteins for the cell: Ribosomes make messenger RNA proteins (mRNA) by connecting amino acids together
-These proteins are then moved through the cell by the endoplasmic reticulum: it is a network of membranes within the cell through which proteins and other molecules move
-The Golgi apparatus packages and distributes proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum: It transforms and exports protein to the rest of the body. Proteins, in their passage through the Golgi apparatus, carry out a modification process.
-Vacuoles store water, waste products, food, etc: vacuoles store substances, in plants they occupy a large percentage of the cytoplasm and change their size during ormoregulation.
-Lysosomes break down waste material and debris: They contains hydrolytic enzymes that allow intracellular digestion of macromolecules
-Mitochondria break down sugar molecules to supply energy. Similarly, chloroplasts capture the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy: Chloroplasts and mitochondria through the processes of cellular respiration and photosynthesis produce energy necessary for the vital functions of the cell.
-The cell membrane protects the cell and controls what enters and leaves it. The cell wall supports the cell membrane, maintains the cell’s shape, and protects the cell. The cytoplasm supports and protects organelles in the cell: The membrane is the support of the cell and through it there is exchange with the external environment. The cytoplasm is the one that supports the rest of cellular organelles
A or the balance between organic matter and mineral matter
RNA is a copy of DNA that is used to make proteins. We usually compare all eukaryotic cells as a group to all prokaryotic cells.
