Is pyruvate a chiral molecule?
yes
A pyruvate molecule is broken down into chemicals such as ethanol or lactate in a process called?
fermentation
What distinguishes an organic molecule from and inorganic molecule?
Organic molecules have carbon while inorganic do not. An example of an organic molecule is that of proteins and carbohydrates. Inorganic examples are table salt and hydrochloric acid (stomach acid).
Which molecule is an organic compound out of 6CO2 6H2O and C6H12O6 6O2?
C6H12O6 is an organic molecule: glucose
Is c6h12o6 an organic or inorganic molecule?
DEfinitely ORGANIC , because it contains carbon atoms. It is a sugar molecule.
Glycolysis is the breakdown of what organic molecule?
....conversion of glucose to pyruvate.
Which molecule can be made from acetyl CoA molecules?
Pyruvate
Is pyruvate a cell?
No, pyruvate is a molecule produced from the breakdown of glucose during glycolysis.
Is pyruvate a chiral molecule?
yes
How many C atoms are in a molecule of pyruvate?
There are three carbon atoms and three oxygen atoms in each pyruvate molecule.
What molecule is pyruvate initially converted in the anabolism of glucose?
Pyruvate is initially converted to oxaloacetate in the anabolism of glucose. That molecule in turn is converted to phosphoenolpyruvate.
Is Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis?
Yes. Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis. This molecule contains three carbons. For every molecule of glucose that enters the glycolytic pathway, two molecules of pyruvate are formed
Is an oxygen molecule an organic molecule?
No, it's not organic (an organic molecule has to contain carbon.)
What are the Products of the Krebs cycle per molecule of pyruvate?
For one molecule of Pyruvate (pyruvic acid) the Krebs cycle produces 2 molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2), 3 molecules of NADH, one molecule of FADH2, and one molecule of ATP.Also, the change from pyruvate to acetyl CoA produces one NADH and one carbon dioxide molecule; CoA is recycled in and out of the cycle.
What molecule is needed to start glycolysis?
Glucose-->Pyruvate(2x)
Is glucose a organic molecule?
yes glucose is an organic molecule
What is the molecule that enters glycolisis?
Glucose is the raw material. It is converted into pyruvate.
