Cellular respiration and fermentation both. . A. begin with the breakdown of glucose in glycolysis. . B.produce the same number
Rus_ich [418]

The correct answer is:

A. begin with the breakdown of glucose in glycolysis.

Explanation:

They both begin with a sequence of reactions known as glycolysis, which breaks glucose particles into smaller pyruvate molecules. They are also related in that through both processes, ATP is generated for the cell to use. Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that transforms glucose C6H12O6, into pyruvate, CH3COCOO− + H+. The free energy delivered in this process is applied to form the high-energy molecules ATP and NADH .

In the electron transport system
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A. NADH and FADH2 both donate electrons at the same location.

Explanation:

In the respiratory chain, four large protein complexes inserted into the mitochondrial inner membrane transport NADH and FADH₂ electrons (formed in glycolysis and the Krebs cycle) to oxygen gas, reducing them to NAD⁺ and FAD, respectively.

These electrons have great affinity for oxygen gas and, when combined with it, reduce it to water molecules at the end of the reaction.

Oxygen gas effectively participates in cellular respiration at this stage, so its absence would imply interruption of the process.

NADH and FADH₂ electrons, when attracted to oxygen, travel a path through protein complexes, releasing energy in this process.

The energy released by the NADH and FADH₂ electrons in the respiratory chain in theory yields <u>34</u> <u>ATP</u>, however, under normal conditions an average of 26 ATP molecules is formed.

If we consider that these 26 molecules are added to the two ATP formed in glycolysis and two ATP formed in the Krebs cycle, it can be said that cellular respiration reaches a maximum yield of 30 ATP per glucose molecule, although theoretically this number was 38 ATP per glucose molecule.

What are endorphins and how do these chemicals alter the communication of pain in the body?
Solnce55 [7]

Endorphins are brain chemicals known as neurotransmitters which are released when the body feels a certain amount of stress and pain. Endorphins alter the communication of pain in the body by interacting with the opiate receptors and blocking the synapse so that signals cannot be sent to the brain in order to reduce an individual perception of pain.

The liver forms glucose from noncarbohydrates. stores vitamin
Viefleur [7K]
<span>The propositions are:
a. forms glucose from </span><span>noncarbohydrates
b. does all of these
c. destroys damaged red blood cells
d. stores vitamin D
e. forms urea

The right answer is: B. </span>does all of these

*The liver plays a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates:- gluconeogenesis (manufacture of a new glucose molecule from a non-carbohydrate molecule);- glycogenolysis (release of glucose from glycogen) under the effect of glucagon;- gluconeogenesis (storage of glucose in the form of glycogen) under the effect of insulin
*It stores fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, K and E) and glycogen.*It converts ammonia to urea (detoxification)<span>*It recycles substances from the senescent red blood cells.</span>
