How many molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2) would be produced by five turns of the citric acid cycle?

Biology
1 answer:
ser-zykov [4K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is E) 10

Explanation:

Glucose is partially oxidized during the glycolysis process into two pyruvate molecules. Then these pyruvate molecules get totally oxidized into CO2 during the citric acid cycle. This citric acid cycle occurs in the matrix of mitochondria.

During a single turn of the citric acid cycle, 2 molecules of carbon dioxide are released. Apart from two molecules of CO2, 3 molecules of NADH, 1 molecule of FADH2 and 1 molecule of ATP or GTP are also produced.

So if 2 molecules of CO2 are produced in one turn therefore in 5 turn 10 molecules of CO2 will be produced.

What type of mutation is albinism
lina2011 [118]
Albinism is caused by a mutation in one of several genes. Each of these genes provides instructions for making one of several proteins involved in the production of melanin. Melanin is produced by cells called melanocytes, which are found in your skin and eyes. A mutation may result in no melanin at all or a significant decline in the amount of melanin.

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Image result for What would be different about earth today if Pangea never broke

The rain which comes from the ocean wouldn't be able to travel far enough inland — leaving parts of Pangea practically uninhabitable by humans and other species. And weather up north would be different too, with Russia being much warmer than it is today.
