Answer:
Explanation:
412 ATP's will be generated from the complete metabolic oxidation of tripalmitin (tripalmitoylglycerol)
130 ATP from the oxidation of palmitate
22 ATP from the oxidation of glycerol
Altogether 130 + 22 = 412 ATP will be produced.
Here in case of tripalmitin (tripalmitoylglycerol), we have 51 carbons.
When 51 carbons can produce 412 ATPs
Then 1 carbon will produce how many ATPs = 412 ATPs/ 51 carbon= 8.1 ATPs.
This shows that ATP yield per carbon often oxidized will be 8.1 ATPs
Now we will see the ATP yield in the case of glucose.
Glucose is made up of 6 carbon and complete oxidation of glucose will produce 38 ATPs
When 6 carbons can yield 38 ATPs
Then 1 carbon can yield how many ATPs= 38 ATPs/ 6 carbons= 6.33 ATPs.
So, ATP yield per carbon in case of glucose will be 6.33 ATPs
This doesn’t have a multiple choice part to answer.
If a force is applied but nothing happens, then it means that the forces are balanced. Being at such state, <span>equal forces are acting on an object in opposite directions. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.</span>
