What is the difference between pyruvic acid butyric acid and acetic acid?
One way that pyruvic acid, butyric acid, and acetic acid are different is that their molecular masses are all different. They all also have different molecular formulas.
What molecules are considered key molecules at metabolic crossroads?
glucose-6-phosphate, pyruvic acid, acetyl CoA
What membrane do pyruvic acid molecules pass through?
the inner/outer membranes of mitochondria
Does the total number of bonds in glucose equal the total number of bonds in both pyruvic acid molecules?
no
Series of reactions that produce two ATP molecules by breaking down a glucose molecule to pyruvic acid?
Glycolysis
What is the difference between pyruvic acid butyric acid and acetic acid?
One way that pyruvic acid, butyric acid, and acetic acid are different is that their molecular masses are all different. They all also have different molecular formulas.
When o2 is not present to which compound is pyruvic acid converted?
If oxygen is not present, the pyruvic acid molecules will begin to undergo fermentation. They remain in the cell during aerobic respiration.
What are some carbonic acids?
Formic, acetic, lactic, citric, tartaric, butyric, pyruvic, ...... , mevalonic acid and ........ and thousands more
How many molecules of pyruvic acid are derived from glucose?
Two molecules of pyruvic acid are derived from each glucose that goes through glycolysis.
In which step are ATP molecules produced?
The Two molecules of pyruvic acid produced in ATP molecules
Is this true or false The pyruvic acid produced in electrolysis enters the chloroplasts if the oxygen is present in a cell?
It is false that if oxygen is present in a cell, pyruvic acid in glycolysis enters the chloroplasts. The pyruvic acid enters the mitochondria if oxygen is present in a cell.
During glycolosys glucose molecules is broken into?
In glycolysis, one 6-carbon glucose molecule is converted into two 3-carbon pyruvate molecules. If no oxygen is present then each of those two pyruvate molecules will be converted into 3-carbon lactate (lactic acid).
Does Glycolysis provide the pyruvic acid molecules used in fermintation?
Yes.
How is pyruvic acid used in the Kreb's cycle?
Durning the Krebs cycle, pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in a series of energy-extracting reactions.
What molecules are considered key molecules at metabolic crossroads?
glucose-6-phosphate, pyruvic acid, acetyl CoA
What molecules have the highest energy content glucose pyruvic acid or ATP?
ATP
What is the pathway in which two molecules of pyruvic acid are produced called?
cellular respiration!
