Intracellular concentrations in resting muscle are as follows: fructose6-phosphate, 1.0 mM; fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, 10 mM; AMP, 0.1 mM;ADP, 0.5 mM; ATP, 5 mM; and Pi, 10 mM. Is the phosphofructokinasereaction in muscle more or less exergonic than under standard conditions?By how much?
When you hold a weight at arm's length, you are not doing any thermodynamic work but the muscles supporting the weight are nevertheless consuming energy. Describe, on the molecular level, how muscles might maintain such state of constant tension without contracting. Why does this state consume ATP?
is this stement false?

- Every cell in the body has organelles called mitochondria that can generate a voltage difference between their interior and exterior. If the capacitance of a mitochondrion is 2.9×10^−11F and the potential difference between the interior and exterior is 0.20 V, how much electrical energy does it store?

If a mitochondrion were to use all of its stored electrical energy to produce ATP molecules, and each ATP molecule requires 9.5×10−20J, how many molecules could it produce?
