Glycolysis produces NADH . However, NADH cannot cross the inner mitochondrial membrane to be used in the electron transport chai

n (respiratory chain). The malate–aspartate shuttle in some animal cells transfers electrons from cytosolic NADH to the matrix. How is oxaloacetate modified to a form that can be transported out of the matrix? transamination isomerization dehydrogenation uncoupling Which compound is transported across the inner membrane in exchange for malate?

Answer: 1.) oxaloacetate can be modified to a form that can be transported out of the matrix through TRANSAMINATION.

2.) The compound that is transported across the inner membrane in exchange for malate is α‑KETOGLUTARATE.

Explanation:

The malate- aspartate shuttle is a system that allows electrons to move across membrane between the cytosol and mitochondrial matrix. The electrons generated during glycolysis such as NADH cannot cross the inner mitochondrial membrane to be used in the electron transport chain (respiratory chain). Therefore through reduction- oxidation reactions, the malate- aspartate shuttle regenerates NADH inside the mitochondrial matrix which can be used to pass electrons to the electron transport chain so that ATP can be synthesized.

if I have 22.1 grams of CO2 gas at -188 degrees Celsius and 165 ml what is the pressure of the gas in kPa​
Harman [31]

Answer:

P = 2.145kPa

Explanation:

Mass = 22.1g

Molar mass of CO2 = 44g/mol

Vol = 165mL = 0.165L

T = -188°C = (-188 + 273.15)K = 85.15K

R = 8.314J/mol.K

From ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P = pressure of the ideal gas

V = volume the gas occupies

n = number of moles if the gas

R = ideal gas constant

T = temperature of the gas

n = number of moles

n = mass / molar mass

n = 22.1 / 44 = 0.50moles

PV = nRT

P = nRT/ V

P = (0.5 × 8.314 × 85.15) / 0.165

P = 2145.26Pa = 2.145kPa

Pressure of the gas is 2.145kPa

Why is it better to use the metric system, rather than the English system, in scientific measurement?
frez [133]
The metric system is based on powers of 10 so it is much easier to convert units, often just by moving the decimal point.
