Chapter 22, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction
To explain:
How pentose phosphate pathway and the glycolytic pathway can combine and produce both NADPH and ATP without producing ribose-5-phosphate.
Introduction:
NADPH is produced in Pentose phosphate pathway of by oxidation but ATP is produced in glycolytic pathway by non-oxidation.

"Anaerobic glycolysis" (the conversion of glucose all the way to two lactate molecules) results in no net production of NADH. True or False- why
How many ATP can be produced from the catabolism of one glucose molecule. (Assume that each NADH produces 2.5 ATP, and each FADH2 produces 1.5 ATP, and that NADH produced in glycolysis use the glycerol 3-phosphate shuttle.)
why it is important to keep cellular [ATP] high relative to [ADP]. That is, why is it important to keep the ratio of [ADP]/[ATP] low at a given [Pi].

- 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. (true or false). If false, explain why. If true explain the contribution of endergonic reactions to the overall exergonic process.arrow_forwardComplete oxidation of a 16-carbon fatty acid can yield 129 molecules of ATP Study Figure 19.2 and determine how many ATP molecules would be generated if a 16-carbon fatly acid were metabolized solely by the TCA cycle, in the form of S acetyl-CoA molecules.arrow_forward
