For humans, linoleic acid is one of the essential fatty acids we must consume. It is plentiful in vegetable oils, and we use it

to form compounds involved in immune responses. When it is decomposed through a process called b-oxidation, it produces effectively 27 NADH, 9 FADH2 and 9 ATP in the Krebs cycle, along with 9 FADH2 and 9 NADH as part of the decomposition.
Required:
How many ATP should this produce?

Rus_ich [418]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

18 ATP.

Explanation:

Total 18 ATP are produced because 9 FADH2 are converted into 9 ATP molecules and the earlier 9 ATP molecules are already present in the first b-oxidation process. The first Krebs cycle produces 27 NADH, 9 FADH2 and 9 ATP while on the other hand, the second Krebs cycle produces 9 ATP molecules from  9 FADH2 so total it produces 18 ATP molecules.

Which of the following statements is consistent with the principle of competitive exclusion?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

D) Even a slight reproductive advantage will eventually lead to the elimination of the less well adapted of two competing species.

Explanation:

The competitive exclusion describes relationship between two species that compete for the limiting sources, and cannot coexist. It is enough for one species to have slightly advantage to be dominant over the other. As a consequence, other species (the weaker one) will be extincted (shift to a different ecological niche).

25. A student measures the distance from a bridge
kkurt [141]

Answer:

(4) As time increased, distance remained

the same

Explanation:

The graph shows that the student measures equal distance everyday from the bridge to the rock for 7 days.

Everyday has an equal distance measured by the student all through the week.

Let's say the point on the vertical axis which represents distance measured is about 1.5 meters. It means that, for day 1, he measures 1.5 meters, day 2, he measured 1.5 meters, by day 3 another 1.5 meters. Same he does for 7 days. For the first 3 days, he would have measured 1.5 m × 3 = 4.5 meters.

This means that, as time (days) increased, distance measured each day remains the same.
