Q

once in mitochondria matrix, pyruvate turns into

A

Acetyl CoA + CO2 ++NADH

17
Q

citrate is formed when Acetyl CoA combines with

A

Combines with
oxaloacetate

18
Q

CO2,
GTP, NADH and FADH2 are released from what?

A

Citrate in KREBS Cycle

19
Q

TRUE or FALSE: Each citrate molecule
goes to 3NADH &1FADH2
that act as sources of
hydrogen atoms

A

TRUE

20
Q

a source of hydrogen from WHERE feeds the Electron Transport Chain?

A

hydrogens come from KREBS Cycle from the NADH and FADH

21
Q

flow of electrons along electron transport chain provides energy to pump ??? across the membrane.

A

protons are pumped across the membrane

22
Q

why are protons pumped across the membrane in ETC system?

A

the proton gradient that is creates provides the energy to
phosphorylate ADP to
ATP

23
Q

Citric acid cycle produces how many ATP molecules?

A

2

24
Q

Electrons transport chian produces how many ATP?

A

26-28

25
Q

TRUE or FALSE: Fatty acids, Lipids, Glycerol, and proteins are substrate sources for aerobic metabolism

A

TRUE

26
Q

What is the use of lactate?

A

Lactate can regenerate glucose which is stored as glycogen

27
Q

what is lactate made of

A

amino acids and glycerol

28
Q

where is lactate commonly found to be used in the process of gluconeogenesis

A

liver, kidney cortex
and skeletal muscle

29
Q

gluconeogenesis can be started with

A

lactate

30
Q

why is protein synthesis important

A

serve as enzymes,
channels, active transporters,
structural elements, intracellular
highways (e.g. tubulin)

31
Q

TRUE or FALSE: Glycerol can be made during the
process of glycolysis and fatty
acids from Acetyl CoA

A

TRUE

32
Q

Peroxisomes detoxify ??? and other harmful substances by using powerful ??? to strip off hydrogen

A

Detoxifies H2O2 … by using powerful oxidative enzymes (use oxygen to strip off
hydrogen) -

33
Q

what do lysosomes use to breakdown dead
organelles, proteins, lipids,
polysaccharides, etc

A

enzymes
