The amino acid methionine can be used as fuel by being converted to succinyl CoA. What would be the estimated ATP yield for the

breakdown of methionine in this way if the succinyl CoA can then enter the citric acid cycle with no input of glucose?

Answer:

18 molecules of ATP will be produced for the breakdown of methionine to succinyl CoA and the entry of succinyl CoA to the citric acid cycle with no input of glucose.

Explanation:

Reactions                                          reduced co enzymes           ATP formation

α keto glutarate to propionyl CoA      2 NADH                                         6 moles

Succinyl CoA to succinate                                                               2 GTP≈ 2 ATP

Succinate to fumarate                         2FADH2                                      4  moles

Malate to oxaloacetate                        2 NADH                                       6 moles

Corn plants may be tall (TT or Tt) or short (tt). The breeding of two parent corn plants results in offspring that are all tall.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

0%

Explanation:

  • The probability that both of the parents are homozygous recessive is zero.
  • In our case, The gene for tallness is dominant over the gene for dwarfism
  • Therefore; TT is homozygous dominant while tt is homozygous recessive and Tt is heterozygous.
  • Heterozygous genotype (Tt) will exhibit a tall phenotype.
  • When two parents are crossed and all the offsprings are tall then the possible genotype of the parents is either;
  1. Homozygous dominant for both parents or  

       TT x TT

    2. One parent is homozygous dominant and the other is homozygous recessive.

        TT x Tt

  • Therefore, the probability of having both parents as homozygous recessive when all the offspring are tall is Zero.

Why is it difficult to detect the presence of isotopes of an element during chemical<br> studies?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Isotopes are atoms that have different number of neutrons, so they have a different mass number than the other atoms in an element.
