NemiM [27]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It needs to gain a Hydrogen atom to eliminate the double bond between the two carbons.  

Explanation:

Unsaturated fat has one or more double bonds in its molecule. Saturated fat has a single bond. If you want an unsaturated fat to become saturated it needs to gain more more hydrogen atoms which will eliminate the double bonds between carbons of the unsaturated fat.

Hope this helped :)

What happens in Citric acid cycle?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cellular respiration generally involves breaking down of large organic molecules to release ATP (energy). Citric Acid cycle, also known as Kreb's cycle or Tricarboxylic acid cycle is the second stage of the cellular respiration (unique to aerobic organisms). Citric acid cycle occurs in the intracellular space or matrix of the mitochondria of eukaryotes.

Glycolysis, which is the first step of cellular respiration, produces pyruvate which is then converted to Acetyl CoA in order to enter the Kreb's cycle by first combining with oxaloacetate. Generally, citric acid cycle involves an eight-steps reaction consisting of series of reduction-oxidation, hydration, dehydration, decarboxylation reactions, with each step catalyzed by different enzymes.

In a nutshell, oxaloacetate is generated back at the completion of the cycle alongside 2 molecules of CO2, one GTP/ATP molecule and electron donors; NADH2 and FADH2. These reduced electron donors enter the third step of aerobic cellular respiration and act as the first electron donor in the Electron transport chain.

What type of biomolecule contains the code for making helicase?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

DNA

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is known as the hereditary material of cells. It carries information for coding all type of proteins in the body.

As helicases are proteins, the genetic code from which they are to be made would be present in a specific sequence on part of DNA. This code would be transcribed and mRNA will be formed. After this, the mRNA will be translated and modified into a helicase enzyme.
