In glycolysis, if glucose is labeled at the carbon 6 position (see page 1 for numbering of carbons in glucose) A) the carbon wit
Oliga [24]

Answer:

D) the carbon with the low-energy phosphate on it in 1,3 BPG is labeled.

Explanation:

Glycolysis has 2 phase (1) preparatory phase (2) pay-off phase.

<u>(1) Preparatory phase</u>

During preparatory phase glucose is converted into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Till this time the carbon numbering remains the same i.e. if we will label carbon at 6th position of glucose, its position will remian the same in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate that means the labeled carbon will still remain at 6th position.

When fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is further catalyzed with the help of enzyme aldolase it is cleaved into two 3 carbon intermediates which are glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihyroxyacetone  phosphate (DHAP).  In this conversion, the first three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate become carbons of DHAP while the last three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate will become carbons of GAP. It simply means that GAP will acquire the last carbon of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is labeled. Now the last carbon of GAP which has phosphate will be labeled.  

<u>(2) Pay-off phase</u>

During this phase, GAP is dehydrogenated into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) with the help of enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This oxidation is coupled to phosphorylation of C1 of GAP and this is the reason why 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate has phosphates at 2 positions i.e. at position 1 in which phosphate is newly added and position 3rd which already had labeled carbon.

It is pertinent to mention here that<u> BPG has a mixed anhydride and the bond at C1 is a very high energy bond.</u> In the next step, this high energy bond is hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid with the help of enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase and the final product is 3-phosphoglycerate. Hence, the carbon with low energy phosphate i.e. the carbon at 3rd position remains labeled.

Compare the mass of a proton to the mass of an electron.
Y_Kistochka [10]

Electrons are only about 0.054% as massive as neutrons and protons are only 99.86% as massive as the neutrons. The mass of the Proton is 1.67 x 10^-27 kg and the mass of the electron is 9.11 x 10^-31 kg. The mass of the electron is so much lighter than the mass of the proton.

1. If you have 5g of pennies how many dozen pennies do you have?
likoan [24]

Answer:

15.69 dozen

Explanation:

Mass of penny = 5 g

Dozens of penny =..?

Next, we shall convert 5 g to gross. This can be obtained as follow:

3824 g = 1000 gross

Therefore,

5 g = 5 g × 1000 gross / 3824 g

5 g = 1.3075 gross

Thus, 5 g is equivalent to 1.3075 gross.

Finally, we convert 1.3075 gross to dozen. This can be obtained as follow:

1 gross = 12 dozen

Therefore,

1.3075 gross = 1.3075 gross × 12 dozen / 1 gross

1.3075 gross = 15.69 dozen

Thus, 5 g of penny is equivalent to 15.69 dozen
