Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The relationship between the fate of pyruvate under aerobic and anaerobic conditions has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Aerobic conditions are those conditions in which process occur in presence of oxygen or oxygen is used as a reactant to produce the product. Anaerobic conditions are those conditions in which the process occurs in absence of oxygen.
(b)
Interpretation:
The relationship between the role of the citric acid cycle in the catabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The citric acid cycle includes a series of biochemical reactions to form carbon dioxide and play an important role in energy production and biosynthesis. It is the last stage of carbohydrates, fats, and amino acids breakdown.
(c)
Interpretation:
The relationship between the structure of mitochondrion, the citric acid cycle, and ATP synthesis have to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Mitochondria are capsule-shaped organelles similar to the size of a bacterial cell also known as the powerhouse of the cell. Mitochondria are double-membrane organelle surrounded by an outer mitochondrial membrane and an inner mitochondrial membrane. The space between the outer membrane and inner membranes is called intermembrane space.
