Which of the following four general statements is TRUE regarding oxidative phosphorylation (otherwise known as the electron transport chain)? Oxidative phosphorylation , 3 of these 4 responses are correct is the metabolic process where most of the cell's glucose is produced occurs along and within the innermost membrane of the mitochondria requires oxygen (02) in a very early stage of the process uses only the NADH produced in glycolysis (and not the Krebs (or citric acid) cycle) to produce ATP

In carbohydrate metabolism, the hexose monophosphate shunt is used for: Question 67 options: A) aerobic glycolysis B) anaerobic glycolysis C) protect RBC's from oxidative damage & are a source of energy D) glycogenolysis
The rate-limiting step is a metabolic pathway is the slowest step which determines the overall rate of the other reactions in the pathway. In glycolysis, the rate limiting step is a phosphorylation reaction where phosphofructokinase (PFK-1) catalyzes the reaction fructose-6-bisphosphate -> fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, the same step in gluconeogenesis. Select one: The statement is FALSE. The statement is TRUE.
Trypanosomes living in the bloodstream obtain all their free energy from glycolysis. They take up glucose from the host’s blood and excrete pyruvate as a waste product. In this part of their life cycle, trypanosomes do not carry out any oxidative phosphorylation, but they do use another oxygen-dependent pathway, which is absent in mammals, to oxidize NADH. Would this pathway be necessary if the trypanosome excreted lactate rather than pyruvate? Explain.
Explain why triacylglycerides are more efficient at energy storage (~ 9 Calories/g) compared to the two othermacronutrient classes, carbohydrates, and proteins (each ~ 4 Calories/g). Shown below is a representativeexample of each for comparison.
