Answer:

39.7 %

Explanation:

magnesium + oxygen ⟶ magnesium oxide

   10.57 g         6.96 g               17.53 g

According to the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em>, the mass of the product must equal the total mass of the reactants.

Mass of MgO = 10.57 + 6.96

Mass of MgO = 17.53 g

The formula for mass percent is

% by mass = Mass of component/Total mass × 100 %

In this case,

% O = mass of O/mass of MgO × 100 %

Mass of O = 6.96 g

Mass of MgO = 17.53 g

% O = 6.96/17.53 × 100

% O = 0.3970 × 100

% O = 39.7 %

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is an important intermediate molecule in the cell's metabolic pathways because __________.
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Present in both catabolic and anabolic pathways

Explanation:

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate abbreviated as G3P occurs as intermediate in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis.

In photosynthesis, it is produced by the light independent reaction and acts as carrier for returning ADP, phosphate ions Pi, and NADP+  to the light independent pathway. Photosynthesis is a anbolic pathway.

In glycolysis, Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is produced by breakdown of fructose-1,6 -bisphosphate. Further Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate converted to pyruvate and pyruvate is further used in citric acid cycle for energy production. Therefore, it is used in catabolic pathway too.

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is an important intermediate molecule in the cell's metabolic pathways because it is  present in both catabolic and anabolic pathways.
