What is preferred monosaccharide of the mitochondria?
Glucose is used in it. It is the fuel of mitochondria
What octane fuel for 1996 maxima is preferred?
It is not preferred or recommended it is required or you will do damage to the engine. Premium fuel of 91 Octane is required and must be used.
What is meant by the term fuel?
Fuel is the source of energy that makes an engine or machine function. Gasoline is the fuel used in most automobiles. The wind is the fuel for wind-turbine generators, and for sailing vessels. Uranium is the fuel for atomic powered submarines.
Where is coal kept on board a ship?
Coal is not used as fuel for any current vessels, but a freighter may carry coal in its hold.
What is prefered fuel for most body functions?
the most preferred body fuel is taken from the carbohydrates, that is easy to break into sugar molecules, which is subsequently converted into ATP (the energy molecule). Once the sugar is enter into the cell, the glycolysis, Krebs cycle, citric acid cycle and finally it end up with the production of energy by the oxidative phosphorylation inside the mitochondria.
Was there an oil spill when the titanic hit the iceberg?
Oil was not yest used in Titanic's time. Her fuel was solid coal. But oil was not long off. It was used for newer vessels but nothing could be converted during wartime (1914-18). After the war, all vessels were converted to oil.
What is the fuel used in space shuttles while landing?
The space shuttle only use the liquid fuel that is onboard to start the decent process. They burn their engines to slow down just enough for the earths gravity to begin pulling them back to earth. After that, they are simply big gliders.
What is D6 fuel?
D6 is a type of residual fuel, mainly used in power plants and larger ships. The fuel requires to be preheated before it can be used. It is not possible to use it in smaller engines or vessels/vehicles where it is not possible to pre-heat it. D6 is its name in the USA. In other parts of the world it has other names.
Why are fats not the body's preferred exercise fuel?
Because cells use sugar not fat and therefore the fat needs to be converted back to sugars before it can be used.
What is the fuel factor for carbohydrates for fat?
Carbohydrate Fuel Factor: 4kcal/g Fat Fuel Factor: 9kcal/g Protein Fuel Factor: 4kcal/g Carbohydrates are the preferred source of energy and used quickly. Fat is then a backup source of energy when carbohydrate fuel availability is insufficient. Protein fuel is used when both carbohydrate and fat available fuel is inadequate; however, it is a less efficient back up source.
Can blood vessels from the other parts of the body be used to replace the damaged ones?
Yes, blood vessels from other parts of the body can be used to replaced damaged ones. For instance, in heart bypass, veins from the leg or other areas are used to replaced blocked coronary arteries.
What is the most preferred fuel used by the body?
Carbohydrates (specifically glucose) are the preferred fuel for the human body due to the metabolic pathways used to produce ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate). The body produces ATP by both glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation and the starting point for this production cycle is glucose. However, both protein and fat can be converted into glucose should carbohydrates be temporarily unavailable. However, in the case of fat, too much oxidation of fat into glucose can cause ketoacidosis.
