NADH and FADH are produced by the Citric Acid Cycle (CAC) and these electron shuttles go on to the Electron Transport Chain (ETC

). If the ETC produce 51 moles of ATP from the products of the CAC, then how many moles of pyruvate entered the CAC

Answer:

3 moles of Pyruvate entered CAC

Explanation:

2moles of pyruvate gives 34 ATP MOLES

Hence 51moles of ATP willl give 51*2/34, which is equal to 3moles

NADH is an energy carrier which delivers high energy electrons to the electron transport chain where they will eventually power the production of 2 to 3 ATP molecules.

FADH is another energy carrier that carries high energy electrons to the ETC, where they will drive the production of 1 to 2 ATP molecules.

Electron transport chain  produces most of the energy ( 34 ATP molecules, compared to only 2 ATP for glycolysis and 2 ATP for Krebs cycle). The electron transport chain takes place in the mitochondria. This stage converts the NADH into ATP.

NADH = 3ATP FADH2 = 2ATP

Protein synthesis consumes four high-energy phosphate bonds per added amino acid. Transcription consumes two high energy phospha
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

30 protein molecules per mRNA molecule

Explanation:

In this problem, it is necessary to have into account that the transcriptional process requires six (6) phosphate bonds to synthesize one (1) codon (i.e, each three nucleotides), and also discards 95% more energy to make mRNA, it means 19 times this amount of energy >> 6 x 19 = 114 bonds. In consequence, transcription requires 120 phosphate bonds (6 + 114 = 120), while translation requires four (4) phosphate bonds per codon. From this deduction, it is possible to find the number of protein molecules synthesized with regard to the energy cost of the translation process and the transcriptional process >>> 120 bonds (transcription) /4 bonds (translation) = 30 protein molecules.

Which part of the cell theory do these results most support:
Vlad1618 [11]
<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2>

\huge\textbf{Cell Theory}

the Cell Theory was give by German scientists, Schleiden and T.Shwan in 1839. It stated that,

  • All organism are composed of one or more cells

  • The cell is the structural and functional unit of life
  • It is a de novo structure, that means it COULD arise from non living thing which was incorrect.

It was corrected by the German pathologist  Rudolf Virchow in 1855. He made a convincing case, corrected and added the third point of the cell theory. It is,

  • Cells can arise only by a division of pre-existing cell. It is <u>NOT</u> a de novo structure.

Cell theory brought a great evolution in the field of biology which established the function of organism is the result of activities and interaction of the cell units.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2>

\huge\textbf{Question:}

  • <u>Flask 1</u>: It is observed that there are no micro-organism, this is because the meat is sealed and no micro-organism could enter through it.
  • <u>Flask 2</u>: It is observed that there are micro-organism present because meat is not sealed but open.
  • <u>Flask 3</u>: As the S tube is used, the micro-organism are not able to reach the meat because of the curvy path

These observations support the  point that<u> cells could arise only by a division of pre-existing alive cells</u> because in Flask 1 when there were no micro-organism present so there was no organisms found so no micro-organism arised, In flask 3 the S tube was used so no micro-organism could reach the meat thus there were no organism there which could divide to reproduce. The flask 2 was open, so the micro organisms reached the meat so they divided which means Cells can only arise by a division of pre-existing cells.
