Chemolithotrophs meet their energy needs by oxidizing organic food molecules. True False Which of the following events does not occur during the energy-investment phase of glycolysis? Hexokinase catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate. Phosphofructokinase catalyzes the isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate. Fructose-bisphosphate aldolase cleaves Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate into two different three-carbon sugars. Dihydroxyacetone phosphate can be converted to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate with the help of the enzyme triose phosphate isomerase.

In Gillaspera, what is the general purpose of conversion of glucose to citrate besides of course the generation of citrate and what is the name for this process? Why is this process generally important in organisms? Give the net reaction for this process in Gillaspera from 1 molecule of glucose to 1 molecule of citrate. It might help to outline the different steps happening in each compartment.
Define the term substrate-level phosphorylation:How does it differ from oxidative phosphorylation?What compound(s) do fermentative bacteria need tosynthesize in order to make ATP by substrate-levelphosphorylation?
Escherichia coli is a facultative anaerobe that ferments sugars. In the absence of oxygen, it does not use its electron transport chain but can still use an F1F0-ATPase. In the presence of oxygen, it respires oxygen through the electron transport chain. In the presence of oxygen, how does E.coli obtain its three energy intermediates?
