Chapter 9.3, Problem 9CC
Summary Introduction

To determine: The two metabolic pathways for aerobic metabolism of glucose.

Introduction: The process of producing energy in the presence of oxygen is known as aerobic respiration. This process occurs only in the cytoplasm and mitochondria. Oxygen is the basic requirement for aerobic respiration. The aerobic respiration takes place only in the presence of molecular oxygen.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The use of NADH produced in two metabolic pathways that are involved in the aerobic metabolism of glucose.

Introduction: Glucose is a six-carbon molecule that metabolizes aerobically to produce energy. The two pathways that are used for aerobic metabolism of glucose are glycolysis and citric acid cycle.

Students have asked these similar questions
If α-ketoglutarate is removed from TCA cycle and used to make glutamate, how many of each of the cofactors (not intermediates) and high energy molecules in the TCA cycle are lost? How much ATP does this equate to (NADH = 2.5 ATP, FADH2 = 1.5 ATP)?
The conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate reduces NAD+ to NADH. Under anaerobic conditions, how is NADH oxidized back to allow for continuing glycolysis? (name the compounds involved in the reaction besides NADH and their draw structures)
What enzymes from the citric acid cycle that are allosterically regulated by ATP and/or NADH?  What enzymes from the citric acid cycle that allosterically regulated by NAD+?
