Explain Why is there a net gain of onlý two ATP

Biology
1 answer:
NeTakaya2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<em><u>While 4 molecules of ATP are produced in total, 2 were used to convert glucose to the reactive fructose-1,6-bisphosphate</u></em>

<em></em>

<em>Thus, 4 ATP- 2ATP= 2ATP</em>

Explanation:

In the cytoplasm, cellular respiration starts, where glucose is broken down for energy production. in the presence of oxygen, energy is produced through aerobic respiration, while in an oxygen-deprived environment, anaerobic respiration can be carried out.

<em>Glucose is a relatively stable molecule, </em>thus in order for the pyruvate-producing reaction to occur, the <em>molecule undergoes phosphorylation </em>through the addition of high energy phosphate groups to drive the reaction forward.

Pyruvate is generated through glycolysis in the cytoplasm-it is oxidized to form acetyl CoA in aeroboc respration also used in fermentation (anaerobic respiration) as an electron acceptor.

The rate at which the concentration of a drug in the bloodstream decreases is proportional to the concentration at any time t. I
Westkost [7]

Answer:

C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}

Explanation:

From the given information:

At any given time (t), let c(t) represent the concentration of the drug present in bloodstream.

Deriving the equation:

\dfrac{dC}{dt} decrease proportionally to Concentration C

i.e

\dfrac{dc}{dt} \alpha - C

\dfrac{dc}{dt} = -k C

\dfrac{dc}{c} = -k dt

\int \dfrac{dc}{c} = -k \int dt

㏑(C) = -kt + λ

where,

λ is the integration constant.

Integrating at t = 0, concentration of blood = Co g/mL

C(0) = Co

㏑(C₀) = 0 + λ

λ = ㏑(C₀)

From ㏑(C) = -kt + λ

㏑(C) = -kt + ㏑C₀

㏑(C)  - ㏑C₀ =  -kt

\dfrac{C}{C_o} = e^{-kt}

C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}

∴

The concentration of drug in blood at any time t is:

C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}

Explain why the chromosomes in the haploid cells that are produced by meiosis I look different than those produced by meiosis II
scoundrel [369]
In meiosis one, homologous chromosomes only separate resulting in two cells. In meiosis II, the cells divide further, separating sister chromatids and resulting in four cells. So the cells are just even smaller with less chromosomes in each one.
