Question

9 What is A ATP FAD NAD* NADP O. F. None of above is comect 10. in addition to elutamate, what other compound in produced in the tra which alanine and a-ketoglutarate react? Select the single A. B. C. D. Co E. None of above is correct 11. into which metabolic intermediate can aspartate be converted in one step? Select the single best answer. A. pyruvate B. oxaloacetate C. citrate D. succinate E. None of above is correct What compound serves as the starting material for the biosynthesis of fatty acids? A. lactate B. acetyl CoA 12. C. bile salt D. glucose E. carnitine

Explanation / Answer

9. Option F is correct.
The terminal electron acceptor in the aerobic respiration is the molecular oxygen.

10. Option B is correct.
Alanine + alpha-KG --------> Pyruvate + Glutamine

11. Option B is correct.
Aspartate + alpha-KG --------> Oxaloacetate + Glutamate

12. Option B is correct.
Acetyl CoA serves as the precursor for fatty acid biosynthesis.

13. Option E is correct.
Acetyl CoA enters the TCA cycle for energy production in aerobic conditions.
