Answer:

Explanation:

412 ATP's will be generated from the complete metabolic oxidation of tripalmitin (tripalmitoylglycerol)

130 ATP from the oxidation of palmitate

22 ATP from the oxidation of glycerol

Altogether 130 + 22 = 412 ATP will be produced.

Here in case of tripalmitin (tripalmitoylglycerol), we have 51 carbons.

When 51 carbons can produce 412 ATPs

Then 1 carbon will produce how many ATPs = 412 ATPs/ 51 carbon= 8.1 ATPs.

This shows that ATP yield per carbon often oxidized will be 8.1 ATPs

Now we will see the ATP yield in the case of glucose.

Glucose is made up of 6 carbon and complete oxidation of glucose will produce 38 ATPs

When 6 carbons can yield 38 ATPs

Then 1 carbon can yield how many ATPs= 38 ATPs/ 6 carbons= 6.33 ATPs.

So, ATP yield per carbon in case of glucose will be 6.33 ATPs

Answer:

1. When you first opened the bottle of coke the pressure of gas in the coke (increased) and the dissolved gas(leaves) the coke. 2. When you placed the coke in hot water , the pressure of gas in the coke (increased) and the dissolved gas(leaves) the coke 3. Therefore to increase the solubility of a gas in a liquid ( that is to make a gas more soluble in a liquid.
