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.

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.

Name two ways that water can enter the atmosphere.​
vampirchik [111]

Answer:ways Water enters the atmosphere evaporation, transpiration, excretion and sublimation:

Explanation:

Transpiration is the loss of water from plants (via their leaves).

Sublimation is when ice or snow transforms directly into water vapour without going through a liquid phase (i.e. they do not melt).

Animals excrete water by respiration and by passing urine.

Evaporation is a type of vaporization that occurs on the surface of a liquid as it changes into the gas phase.
