Answer:

a. First Step: The sugars are broken down to simple glucose molecules and the proteins and lipids are broken down to acetyl-CoA molecules. No energy is produced in this first step.

b. Second Step: Glycolysis converts the glucose to two molecules of pyruvate. Six ATP molecules are produced in this step.

c. Third Step: Oxidation of each pyruvate produces two molecules of acetyl-CoA. Six ATP molecules are produced in this step.

d. Fourth Step: Two acetyl-CoA molecules go through the Krebs (citric acid) cycle. Twenty-four ATP molecules are produced through this process.

e. All of the above steps are part of the break down of the candy bar's macromolecules.

Why must most antibiotics be given some time to take effect on a disease-causing population of bacteria?
Eva8 [605]
The correct answer is d. "Regeneration" means "forming new cells," and signifies that the disease-causing bacteria cells are multiplying. When there are more of these cells, there is a higher chance for antibiotic resistance (making it take longer for the antibiotics to work). Once there is a smaller concentration of these bacterial cells, the antibiotics become more effective.
