BioChem C785 WGU Module 4

The polysaccharide cellulose is composed of sugar monomers linked through beta linkages, with their CH2OH groups in opposite direction relative to the neighboring monomer. True Nutrient that can not be broken down to a substance that can participate in the production of ATP via aerobic cellular metabolism Vitamin E Glycolysis produces 2 ATP molecules, through what process are these ATP molecules made? Substrate level phosphorylation What product of beta oxidation is able to enter the citric acid cycle? AcetylCoA What process is shared between anaerobic and aerobic metabolism? glycolysis A defect occurs that prevents pyruvate from converting to lactate under anaerobic conditions - what is a possible consequence? glycolysis stops because NAD+ levels are too low What differentiates aerobic from anaerobic cellular metabolism? utilization of 02 as an electron acceptor What takes place in the mitochondria of a cell? production of FAHD2 production of CO2 in the citric acid cycle creation of a proton gradient What does not take place in the mitochondria of a cell? conversion of pyruvate to lactic acid
