Biochemistry Glucose Metabolism (Glycolysis) quiz with correct answers (verified)Graded A+
What about Fructose? - Answer-Fructose has two entry points in the body. 1) most tissues have Fructose converted into F-6P with HK, but 2) in the liver Fructose becomes F-1P which becomes DHAP and glyceraldehyde with the help of Fuctose 1-Phosphate Aldose NAD+ Stucture - Answer- Three fates of Pyruvate - Answer-Lactate (anaerobic animal), ethanol (anaerobic yeast), acetyl CoA (aerobic conditions). Role of Fermentaion - Answer-Fermentation is responsible for generating ATP in the absence of O2, using organic compounds (such as pyruvate) as electron donors and acceptors. How is Pyruvate converted into ethanol? - Answer-Pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) removes CO2 to create acetalydehyde, then alchohol dehydrgenase (ADH) turns the carboxyl oxygen into an alcohol. How is Pyruvate converted into Lactate? - Answer-Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) takes the carbonyl oxygen and turns it into an alcohol, making Lactate.
