If 10 glucose molecules enter the Krebs Cycle, how many possible molecules of ATP can be produced?

Biology
1 answer:
vovikov84 [41]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

20 molecules of ATP

Explanation:

Krebs cycle or also known as Tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) is the second stage of aerobic cellular respiration which occurs in the mitochondria. In the kreb cycle, pyruvate, which was synthesized in the first stage of cellular respiration (glycolysis) is broken down into carbon dioxide (CO2).

However, in the krebs cycle, two (2) ATP molecules is produced per glucose molecule that enters cellular respiration. Hence, according to this question, If 10 glucose molecules enter the Krebs cycle, (2 × 10) = 20ATP molecules will be possibly produced.

What are tsunamis and how are they formed?
Alika [10]
A long high sea wave caused by an earthquake, submarine landslide, or other disturbance. Undersea earthquakes, which typically occur at boundaries between Earth's tectonic plates, cause the water above to be moved up or down. Tsunami waves are formed as the displaced water, which acts under the influence of gravity, attempts to find a stable position again.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

A) histone coding genes

Explanation:

Histones are the proteins involved in the packing of DNA in eukaryotes. They are positively charged proteins and are not found in bacteria. To analyze the evolutionary relationship in a gene between eukaryotes and bacteria, one must choose the gene present in both of them. The tRNA, rRNA and hexokinase encoding genes are common to both bacteria and eukaryotes. Therefore, one of these genes may be chosen for the study. However, histone encoding genes are not present in the genomes of bacteria. Therefore, the study of the histone encoding gene would not be useful for the mentioned purpose.

Which organic molecule would a long-distance runner most likely choose to eat before a race?
Over [174]
Biomolecules are organic compounds that are present as essential components of living things. There are four major biomolecules namely lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids. Proteins, lipids and glucose are usually used by organisms as energy sources as well as structural components among other functions in living organisms. Nucleic acids are important components that bring about heredity. In this case the appropriate molecule to be chosen by the long distance learner would be carbohydrate because it stores and may be used as a source of energy.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer;

Population; physiological modifications at the individual level.

The adaptation of the sled dog best describes adaptation at the population level while the dog exposed to seasonal colder temperatures has physiological modifications at the individual level.

Explanation;

-The bodies of sled dogs are covered with two coats of hair that work together to provide a double layer of warmth. The under layer is very short and the dog sheds it in the spring to keep from overheating during warmer temperatures.

-During the colder winter months, this under layer works as an insulator against the dog's skin to keep his body warm and his core body temperature consistent. This adaptation best describes adaptation at the population level while the dog exposed to seasonal colder temperatures has physiological modifications at the individual level.
