Figure 5.8 -Refer to Figure 5.8. In aerobic respiration, where is water formed?

Which of the following statements about photophosphorylation is FALSE?

Fatty acids are oxidized in

Figure 5.4 -How is ATP generated in the reaction shown in Figure 5.4?

Which of the following statements regarding the Entner- Doudoroff pathway is TRUE?

Figure 5.3 -How would a noncompetitive inhibitor interfere with a reaction involving the enzyme shown in Figure 5.3?

Figure 5.6 -The rates of O₂ and glucose consumption by a bacterial culture are shown in Figure 5.6. Assume a bacterial culture was grown in a glucose medium without O₂. Then O₂ was added at the time marked X. The data indicate that

Cyanobacteria are a type of

Figure 5.8 -In Figure 5.8, the path labeled "2" is the flow of

Which of the following uses glucose for carbon and energy?

A bacterial culture grown in a glucose- peptide medium causes the pH to increase. The bacteria are most likely

Which of the following statements about beta oxidation is FALSE?

Both respiration and photosynthesis use water molecules for the donation of hydrogen ions.

Which of the following statements regarding the glycolysis pathway is FALSE?

Figure 5.8 -In Figure 5.8, the structure labeled "1" is

Once an enzyme has converted substrates into products, the active site reverts back to its original form.

You look in the refrigerator and find some orange drink you had forgotten was there. The drink now has an "off" taste and bubbles. What is the most likely explanation for the changes in the drink?

Both respiration and photosynthesis require the use of an electron transport chain.

In general, ATP is generated in catabolic pathways and expended in anabolic pathways.

Catabolic reactions are generally degradative and hydrolytic.
