One pyruvate molecule will generate _______ molecules of CO2 after completing the citric acid cycle
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

c) 3

Explanation:

Cellular respiration includes following 3 processes:

1) Glycolysis

2) Citric acid cycle or TCA or Kreb's cycle

3) Electron Transport Chain (ETC)

In glycolysis, a 3 carbon compound known as pyruvate is produced from glucose. Each glucose molecule produces 2 pyruvate molecules. Each pyruvate molecule then enters a complex known as Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex wherein the pyruvate molecule further undergoes oxidative decarboxylation to produce a 2 carbon compound known as Acetyl-CoA.

.

The Acetyl-CoA then enters citric acid cycle or TCA or Kreb's cycle wherein this Acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate are oxidized to produce CO₂ molecules in eight steps. Each glucose molecule is capable of producing six CO₂ after the completion of citric acid cycle. Since one glucose molecule produces 2 pyruvate molecules then it means <u>a pyruvate molecule will be able to produce three CO₂.</u>

Ber [7]

Answer:

Hyperimmunoglobulinemia E Syndrome

Hyperimmunoglobulinemia E Syndrome or Job syndrome is an immunodeficiency disorder in which the white blood cells are incapable of producing an inflammatory response to infectious organisms. It is an autosomal dominant disorder. It is characterized by recurring bacterial infections, specially of lung and skin. There are also other symptoms like abromalities in vascular or skeletal system and elevated IgE level.

Symptoms like frequent formation of pus pockets in skin, lungs or joints usually begin during infancy. These pus pockets are formed due to infection by staphylococcal bacteria. Treatment usually consists of antibiotics to fight infection and anti histamines to relieve the symptoms like rash and itching. Sometimes drugs can also be administered to modify immune system.
