How many equivalents of pyruvate are needed to generate 1 equivalent of glucose?

1 answer:

4 0

Gluconeogenesis is the process by which the body produce glucose from non-carbohydrate substrates such as pyruvate. To produce glucose from pyruvate, two moleucules of pyruvate is needed. The reaction for the gluconeogenesis reaction is as follow:
2 pyruvate + 4 ATP + 2 GTP + 2 NADH = Glucose + 4 ADP + 2 GDP + 2 NAD + 6Pi.

2) Will all atoms behave exactly the same when the temperature is changed?

Butoxors [25]

no...the atoms will not behave the same

as when temperature is increased, the atoms vibration and kinetic energy will also be increased....they come in excited state...

where as when temperature is reduced ,atoms kinetic energy slows down....
