Exam 5: Cell Respiration and Metabolism

Ketone bodies are produced by

How many H⁺ do the first two proton pumps of the electron transport system transport?

Fatty acids are NOT an energy source for

Theoretically,complete catabolism of glucose generates a maximum of 32 ATP.

The Cori cycle involves formation of glucose made by gluconeogenesis in the liver from lactic acid produced by fermentation in skeletal muscles.

Beta-oxidation of an 18 carbon fatty acid will yield _____ acetyl CoA molecules.

What is the inadequate supply of blood to an organ called?

What type of tissue is especially dependent on adequate plasma glucose levels?

During the conversion of one pyruvic acid to acetyl coenzyme A,______________ molecule(s)of carbon dioxide is/are produced.

Formation of the maximum number of acetyl CoA molecules from one glucose,produces ______________ molecules of carbon dioxide.

Glycolysis would be inhibited by

Glucose 6-phosphate can diffuse out of a cell.

Prior to entering the Krebs cycle amino acids must be reductively deaminated.

Skeletal muscle contains glucose 6-phosphatase to produce free glucose from glucose 6-phosphate.

To form lactic acid from pyruvic acid it is necessary to have

The electron transport chain system is responsible for the production of the majority of cellular ATP.

In the complete process of aerobic respiration,the major source of reduced NAD and FAD is glycolysis.

To go through glycolysis,_________ ATP per glucose molecule must be "invested" in order to activate the glucose molecule.

______________ cells normally produce ATP exclusively by anaerobic respiration metabolism.

What percentage of energy released by aerobic respiration of glucose is captured by ATP?
