Explain how the tri-carboxylic acid cycle connects the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids and lipids.
the production and metabolism of carbohydrate proteins and lipids connect with the pathway of glucose metabolism of the TCA cycle.the simple sugars such as pentose hexose factors glycogen and galactose all are categorised in the process of glycolysis where as the minor acids which are coming from proteins connect with the glucose metabolism through the intermediates such as acetyl coenzyme ,pyruvate and other components of tricarboxylic acid cycle .
The tricarboxylic acid cycle is taking place due to reactions that occur in mitochondria which oxidises acetyl coenzyme A and reduces coenzymes through the electron transport chain which further creates ATP. The TCA cycle plays a central role in in lipogenesis, gluconeogenesis, heme synthesis, interconversion of amino acids. TCA cycle also provides substrate for the respiratory chain
Explain how the tri-carboxylic acid cycle connects the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids and lipids.
What is the common product formed during metabolism from Protein (amino acids), Lipids(fatty acids) and carbohydrates(glucose) (a) Pyruvate (b) Acetyl COA (c) Citrate (d) Acetate O a.(a) b. (b) c. (c) d.(d)
Which type of reaction connects amino acids to each other? (hint: connects nitrogen to carboxylic acid, peptide is not a type of reaction)
QUESTION 13 In general, amino acid metabolism differs from carbohydrate and lipid metabolism because: A. amino acids can not be metabolized for energy while carbohydrates and lipids can. B. excess nitrogen is stored as amino acids while excess carbohydrates and lipids are stored. C. excess nitrogen beyond the needs of the cell are excreted while excess lipids and carbohydrates are stored. D. all of the above answers are correct. QUESTION 14 In the termination of DNA replication, the motion of...
Where do amino acids, lipids, carbohydrates feed into cell respiration?
Constants ! Periodic Part A Explain why amino acids, unlike most amnines and carboxylic acids, are insoluble in diethyl ether. O An amino acid is insoluble in diethyl ether (a relatively nonpolar solvent), because an amino acid exists as a nonpolar molecule. In contrast, carboxylic acids and amines are more polar because they have a single charge depending on the extent of dissociation in diethyl ether An amino acid is insoluble in diethyl ether (a relatively nonpolar solvent), because an...
60) Lipids are composed of: c) fatty acids and glycerol amino acids and glycerol nucleic acids and glycerol fatty acids and water fatty acids and sugar e) 61) The bond between two amino acids is a: a) hydrogen bond b) covalent bond c) peptide bond d) b and c e) none of the above 62) Hemoglobin has which tertiary structure: a) fibrous b) globular c) four subunits--two alpha chains, two beta chains d) alpha helix e) none of the above...
Metabolism Overview Worksheet Protein Carbohydrates Lipids Using the diagram on the next page as a guide, explain in your own words the three major processes. You do not need to explain each step in detail but provide a summary of the starting substrate (be specific for each macronutrient in glycolysis), the purpose, the mechanisms, and the end products. Use your book as a reference. 1) Glycolysis: 2) TCA Cycle: 3) Electron Transport Chain: Electron Transport Chain # 3 osplay Setting:...
11.6B - The body can synthesize lipids out of carbohydrates for long term energy storage. The body can use the same pathway in reverse to burn lipids as a source of fuel for the Citric Acid Cycle. These coupled, opposite pathways are an example of: Respiration Catanabolism Amphibolism Gluconeogenesis Metabolism Catabolism Anabolism
Compare the structure of the four major biological macromolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids) and explain how the distinct structure of each type of molecule enables it to carry out its particular function.
