Answer:
Total number of ATP molecules generated from a 32-carbon fatty acid = 206 ATP molecules
Explanation:
A 32 carbon fatty acid which undergoes complete beta-oxidation assuming that the fatty acid is fully saturated will pass through the beta-oxidation cycle 14 times to produce the following:
15 molecules of acetylCoA, 14 molecules of FADH₂, and 14 molecules of NADH.
Each of the 15 acetylCoA molecules can be further oxidized in the citric acid cycle to yield the following: 15 × 3 NADH; 15 × 1 FADH₂, and 15 ATP molecules from the substrate level phosphorylation occuring at the succinylCoA synthetase catalyzed-reaction.
Total FADH₂ produced = 15 + 14 = 29 molecules of FADH₂
Total NADH produced = 45 + 14 = 59 molecules of NADH
The FADH₂ and NADH will each donate a pair of electrons to the electron transfer flavoprotein and mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase respectively of the electron transport chain, and about 1.5 and 2.5 molecules of ATP are generated respectively when these electrons are transfered to molecular oxygen.
Thus, number of molecules of ATP generated by 29 molecules of FADH₂ = 1.5 × 29 = 43.5 molecules of ATP.
Number of molecules of ATP generated by 59 molecules of NADH = 2.5 × 59 = 147.5
Sum of ATP generated from FADH₂ and NADH = 43.5 + 147.5 = 191 ATP molecules
Total number of ATP molecules generated = 191 + 15 = 206 ATP molecules
Total number of ATP molecules generated from a 32-carbon fatty acid = 206 ATP molecules
Answer:
Dear user,
Answer to your query is provided below
When small amount of acid was added to buffered solution, pH will change very less.
Explanation:
Buffer solution resists change in ph on adding small amount of acid or base but when we calculate the value of buffer capacity we take the change in ph when we add acid or base to 1 lit solution of buffer.This contradicts the definition of buffer solution.
Answer: The fourth material that is added to the blast furnace is HOT AIR which provides OXYGEN for used for combustion of carbon (Coke).
Explanation:
Iron is the second most abundant metal found in the earth's crust after aluminium. It is not found in the free metallic state but are extracted from rocks which are rich in iron that contains other materials. These are known are iron ores and the most common iron ores are haematite ( Fe2O3).
Iron can be extracted from its ore with the used of blast furnace. The materials used for extraction of iron includes:
--> Coke
--> haematite( iron ore)
--> limestone and
--> Hot air.
The iron ore is first roasted in air so that iron(III)oxide is produced. The iron(III)oxide is then mixed with coke and limestone and heated to a very high temperature. Hot air is introduced into it from the bottom of the furnace. The coke is oxidizes the the oxygen in the hot air blast to liberate carbondioxide.
ANSWER: B) drying paint
EXPLANATION: Car manufacturers use UV radiation to dry the paint o the vehicle. The high reflectivity of infrared radiation helps to keep the car interior cool. It also gives advantages over convection heating. It can provide both high intensity and low intensity heat and is a low cost heat source when compared in dollars per unit of energy consumed. The IR heating also doesn't penetrate deeply and apply heating only on the outer surface.
