Question
Chapter 18, Problem 4P
Interpretation Introduction
To discuss:
The cycling and fermentation reactions in NADH and NAD+
Introduction:
NADH stands for Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrogen. Here hydrogen is in reduced form. During glycolysis there are many products formed in the reactions like ATP and pyruvate, there only NADH also stands as a cofactor produced during glycolysis

Determine the total yield of ATP for the complete oxidation of 1 molecule of 3-phosphoglycerate. Show the work and reasoning, and indicate how many ATP, NADH, and FADH2 are formed and in which steps. Include ATP produced in the electron transport chain. Express the answer as a range
Determine how many ATP are formed in the complete oxidation of 1 mole of succinate. Include the ATP produced during the electron transport chain. Explain the reasoning clearly, and express the answer as a range.
All steps in the calculations must be reported, incomplete reporting of these leads directly to return.
Make a theoretical calculation of how many ATP molecules can be formed from the degradation of an acetyl-CoA molecule to carbon dioxide and water if the entire proton gradient across the mitochondria's inner membrane can be used for ATP production and when the ATP synthase has 15 c-subunits.

- Understanding the Oxidation of Glucose and Its Products in the TCA Cycle Glycolysis, the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction, and the TCA cycle result in complete oxidation of a molecule of glucose to CO2. Review the calculation of oxidation numbers for individual atoms in any molecule, and then calculate the oxidation numbers of the carbons of glucose, pyruvate, the acetyl carbons of acetyl-CoA. and the metabolites of the TCA cycle to convince yourself that complete oxidation of glucose involves removal of 24 electrons and that each acetyl-CoA through the TCA cycle gives up 8 electrons.arrow_forwarda) Metabolic process in which hexose metabolism occurs? Amount of steps? Since this metabolic process (hexose -> 2 pyruvate) is exergonic. b) But, looking at the individual reactions that makeup this process, they are a combination of exergonic and endergonic reactions.
