Does the Krebs cycle start with pyruvic acid and yield lactic acid or alcohol?
lactic acid
What is pyruvic acid changed into lactic acid fermentation?
nm.bj;ujb;oi;poi
80 percent of the lactic acid produced by skeletal muscle is converted to pyruvic acid in the?
Liver
What does pyruvic acid convert to during exercise?
It converts to lactic acid, which is the reason why you are sore after you work out hard.
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.
When oxygen is scarce cellular pyruvic acid will be converted to?
lactic acid
What is the empirical formula of lactic acid?
C6H12O6 --> 2C3H6O3+2ATP Sugar (glucose) → Lactic Acid + Carbon Dioxide + Energy (ATP) or Pyruvic acid + NADH → Lactic acid + NAD+
Does the Krebs cycle start with pyruvic acid and yield lactic acid or alcohol?
lactic acid
What is more reduced lactic or pyruvic acid?
Pyruvic acid is more reduced than lactic acid. This is because yruvic acid contains carboxylic acid and a ketone to oxaloacetate.
What does the conversion of lactic acid to pyruvic acid require?
NADH
What is pyruvic acid converted to when there is a inadequate oxygen?
Lactic Acid.
Which type of fermentation is Glucose -- pyruvic acid -- lactic acid plus 2 ATP?
Lactic Acid fermentation :)
Lactic acid is produced as a result of the chemical reduction of?
pyruvic acid
What substance is not produced in a muscle cell under anaerobic conditions?
Lactic acid (also called lactate).The product of glycolysis in the cytoplasm is pyruvic acid (= pyruvate). If there is not enough oxygen for the mitochondria to oxidize the pyruvic acid, the enzyme lactic acid (or lactate) dehydrogenase, which is in the cytoplasm, reduces the pyruvic acid to lactic acid.
What is the by-product of lactic acid fermentation?
Lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid, carbon dioxide, and ATP.
What happens to pyruvic acid after there is no oxygen?
If oxygen is present it is converted to Acetyl-CoA and enters citric acid cycle If oxygen is not present is will become lactic acid and /or ethanol
What is lactic acid fermentaion?
ALCHOLIC FERMENTATION:- It occurs in bacteria,yeast etc. In this type of anaerobic resipiration pyruvic acid is further broken down into alcohol. Lactic fermentation:- It occurs in skeletal muscles of humans and other animals during extreme physical activities (when oxygen supply is not sufficent) and in bacteria present in milk. In lactic acid fermentation pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid.This process is involved in the production of yogurt.
