Answer:
C) the double bond results in the bypassing of the first oxidation step of the pathway, thereby eliminating one FADH2 product
Explanation:
The beta oxidation of fatty acids is the process by which long chain saturated and unsaturated fatty acids are oxidized to the two-carbon product, acetylCoA.
The beta oxudation of fatty acids occurs in four steps after which the chain length is shortened by 2 with cleavage of an acetylCoA molecule.
The first step involves the oxidation of the fatty acid with introduction of a double bond between C-2 and C-3 of the long carbon chain. This reaction produces FADH2 which donates its electrons to electron carriers in the electron transport chain tomproduce 1.5 moles of ATP. This is the case with saturated fatty acids.
However, in unsaturated fatty acids (which are less reduced than saturated fatty acids) where there is already a double bond innthe molecule, the double bond results in the bypassing of the first oxidation step of the pathway, thereby eliminating one FADH2 product.
This causes a reduction In the number of ATP produced by unsaturated fatty acids when compared to saturated fatty acids.
Answer:
74 g/mol
Explanation:
Using a periodic table, we can determine the molar mass by adding together 1 Ca, 2 O, and 2 H. This turns out to be approximately (40+32+2) = 74 g/mol
Answer:
40J
Explanation:
I think about that why I don't know what is the answer
Answer:
The weight of the object on earth =441N
Weight of the object on moon = 72N
Explanation:
Weight of a body is the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. Acceleration due to gravity varies between planetary bodies. The acceleration due to gravity on earth is 9.8 m/s² while on moon is 1.6m/s² and it goes different for others too.
Weight = Mass * acceleration due to gravity
Weight(e) = weight on earth
Weight (m) = weight on moon
Weight(e) = 45 * 9.8 = 441N
Weight (m) = 45 * 1.6 = 72N
Weight of a body is measured in a unit called Newton(N)
Yes it is always changing, as time moves on new technological advancements are made. This makes it possible for new ideas to be created. For example the depiction of an atom went through many stages throughout the years in order to find out our current final version. New scientists and new ideas can add on to older ones, making explanations that make more scientific sense.
