The complete oxidation of one glucose molecule yields 30 or more ATP. Glucose catabolism includes glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation

, and the citric acid cycle. The total yield of ATP includes ATP, GTP, and reduced cofactors that yield ATP from the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation. Which of the following processes yields the most ATP? When determining the ATP yield for each process, include ATP derived from reduced cofactors.
I) oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA

II) citric acid cycle

III) glycolysis

Answer: II. Citric acid cycle

Explanation:

Oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA does not generate energy and glycolysis generates only 2 ATP (2 ATP used and 4 ATP generated). On the contrary TCA generates as much 38 ATP.

) Which of the following statements about transcriptional regulators is false? (a) Transcriptional regulators usually interact w
OverLord2011 [107]

The false statement is: (a) Transcriptional regulators usually interact with the sugar–phosphate backbone on the outside of the double helix to determine which DNA sequence to bind.

Transcriptional regulator or factor is protein with the ability to control and regulate gene expression at the transcription level by binding to DNA. Transcriptional factors have domain-DNA-binding domain which contains structural motif that recognizes DNA and it is responsible for the attachment to specific DNA sequence. It usually binds to the DNA major groove (hydrogen bonding) because it is less degenerate than that of the DNA minor groove.  

Transcriptional factors also contain trans-activating domain for the binding of other proteins and signal-sensing domain for the detection of external signals.

Why are proteins important to all living things
docker41 [41]
Because carry out all the functions in the human body necessary for living. Proteins make up hormones that are required for living. Insulin - responsible for stabilising blood sugar. Haemoglobin - responsible for carrying oxygen around the body. Melatonin - responsible for helping us get to sleep. Adrenalin - responsible for the flight-fight-freeze response. There are many more but here are just a few.

Natali5045456 [20]

Plants respond immediately to the gravitational attraction of the Earth as well as to light. Stems develop away from the center of the Earth and toward the light due to negative gravitropism.

<h3>What is negative gravitropism?</h3>

Negative gravitropism occurs when shoots develop in the opposite direction of gravity toward sunlight.

Plants respond immediately to the gravitational attraction of the Earth as well as to light. Stems develop away from the center of the Earth and toward the light due to negative gravitropism.

Thus, the given experiment shows negative gravitropism.
