ke Home (Ch 12 14 15 16 17 18 19) emphill: Attempt 1 uestion 71 (1 point) d Which process is NOT a metabolic fate for pyruvate in liver tissue? a) transamination to alanine b) carboxylation to oxaloacetate c) reduction to lactate d) oxidative decarboxylation to acetyl-CoA e) phosphorylation to phosphoenolpyruvate Save Question 72 (1 point) B For mitochondria where an uncoupler for oxidative phosphorylation is p statement is TRUE? a) The rate of NADH reoxidation will decrease relative to coupled mi . b) The citric acid cycle will be inhibited relative to uncoupled mitoch

Explanation / Answer

Ans.71: phosphoenol pyruvate is not the fate of the pyruvate. pyruvate can convert into the phosphoenole pyruvate in the reverse of the glycolysis which will utilize the ATP. So, this can not be the fate of pyruvate because in the breakdown of the glucose through glycolysis pyruvate is the end pruduct and phosphoenol pyruvate is the intermediate.
