Ignore question 4.
1. Calculate the number of ATP produced per carbon atom for a molecule of glucose under oxidative phosphorylation (remember we use as a rule of thumb 2.5ATP per NADH and 1.5ATP per FADH2 based on the number of protons pumped in the ETC). 2. Calculate the number of ATP produced per carbon atom for a saturated fatty acid between 12 and 18 carbons long (make sure you clearly indicate the length of fatty acid you choose, e.g...

Determine the ATP equivalents that would be required to construct a fatty acid that is 18 carbons long, start with pyruvate. Assume that oxaloacetate is present and that fatty acid synthase is able to make a fatty acid of this length. Calculations MUST be clearly shown. Ignore the cost or gain associated with recycling oxaloacetate.

Fatty Acid Metabolism. The reactions of the fatty acid spiral are shown below. Use the description on the left side of the page to classify the reactions and fill in the boxes on the right side of the page Activation Step. The activation of the fatty acid begins by the addition of CoA which will carry the fatty acid from the cytosol into the mitochondria. The product, which is a fatty acid with a CoA attached, is known as a...

• Drawing #3: Draw a triglyceride. Your drawing should contain 1 saturated fatty acid chain (10 carbons in length), 1 monounsaturated fatty acid chain (10 carbons in length), and 1 polyunsaturated fatty acid chain (10 carbons in length). This will take some work. and make sure your drawing includes them. In some cases, you may have to edit your 3 examples. It took multiple searches to build that picture.) Label each of the chains so I know which chain is...
