Although we study the citric acid cycle as the final stage oxidation of carbon from glucose, an in-depth look at the cycle shows
intermediates entering and leaving the cycle from a number of metabolic pathways. With all of these demands on the cycle, how does it maintain a minimal level of oxaloacetate (OAA) to allow the cycle to function?A. Explain when GDP vs. ADP is used as a substrate with succinyl CoA synthetase.B. If 14C-labeled acetyl CoA is added to isolated mitochondria, is 14C-labeled CO2C. released in the first full cycle of the citric acid cycle? Explain your answer.D. Carbon monoxide is considered toxic because it acts on Complex IV. How wouldE. the addition of carbon monoxide to actively respiring mitochondria affect the relative oxidation-reduction states of all components of the electron-transport chain?F. Explain why less ATP is made from the reoxidation of FADH2 as compared to NADH.
Inside the seed there are is an embryo the baby plan and cotyledons. When the seed begins to grow, one part of the embryo becomes the plant while the other part becomes the root of the plant.
