glycolysis

Question 1

glycolysis

Answer 1

largest flux of carbon in cells, sole source of metabolic energy in mamal tissue, plants can store starch do glycolysis as well as anaerobic organisms,

Question 2

phosphorylation of glycose

Answer 2

irreversable, catalysed by hexokinase,

Question 3

anaerobic glycolysis

Answer 3

2 atp per molecule of glucose

Question 4

complete oxidation of glucose

Answer 4

32 atp per glucose

Question 5

starch

Answer 5

major source of carbs, same structure and digestion pathway as glycogen _> alpha amulase into saccarides and are hydrolysed

Question 6

glycolysis forms

Answer 6

2 pyruvate, energy is conserved in form of ATP and NADH, taken up by glucose transporters GLUT1,

Question 7

prep fase

Answer 7

2 ATP are invested to activate glucose, the bond between C-3 and C-4 is broken

Question 8

pay off fase

Answer 8

C-1 is oxidised and the energy is conserved in 1 NADH and 2 ATP per triose phosphate, many reactions are reversable

Question 9

NAD+ regeneration

Answer 9

educing pyruvate to lactate or ethanol (fermentation), a reaction prevalent under
anaerobic conditions; under conditions of sufficient [O2 ], pyruvate becomes decarboxylated and enters the
TCA cycle
