Homework Answers
A n-carbon fatty acid when completely oxidized, (n/2)-1 turns of B-oxidation cycles must be completed, that produces (n/2)-1 FADH2, (n/2)-1 NADH, and n/2 acetyl-CoA. Then, each acetyle-CoA goes through the citric acid cycle and produces the same amount of ATP as half a glucose. That’s why a fatty acid with 4 carbons or longer will produce more ATP than glucose. In addition, a triglyceride has three fatty acid chains and the chains are normally around 16 carbons long in humans. Therefore, there are usually around 9x more ATP in triglycerides.

3. Cancer cells undergo rapid unrestrained proliferation. The increased reliance of cancer cells upon glycolysis therefore seems paradoxical, since glycolysis generates only 2 ATP from each glucose molecule, whereas complete oxidative respiration of glucose generates up to 36 ATPs per molecule. Which of the following best explains why glycolysis may be advantageous to rapidly proliferating cancer cells? a. Glycolysis generates NADH that can be used as a source of reducing power for macromolecular synthesis. b. Glycolysis produces intermediates that can...

The ATP yield for a molecule depends on where it enters glycolysis or the citric acid cycle. The yield can be compared to the net yield of glucose, 30 ATP. Determine the net ATP yield of each starting molecule when fully oxidized to CO2.

Q1: What are catabolism and anabolism (4 marks)? Q2: Under aerobic respiration, a molecule glucose is oxidized to generate 36 ATPs in eukaryote cell while 38 ATPs in prokaryote cell. Explain how this difference occurred (6 marks). Q3: Why aerobic respiration could produce more energy (ATP molecules) than anaerobic respiration and fermentation? By using glucose as the substrate, illustrate how ATP molecules are being produced in each case (15 marks). Q4: "Most microbes use carbohydrate (glucose) as the energy sources...
