What happens to the 62 percent of the total energy of glucose that is not used to make ATP molecules?

The remaining energy is lost as heat due to the 2nd law of thermodynamics. According to that law, only part of the energy will transfer and the rest will be lost as heat. For example, and engine uses part of the energy for motion and the rest dissipates through heat.


What type of transport is used during glucose reabsorbtion?

Solutes are selectively moved from the glomular filtrate to the plasma by active transport in the kidney. This includes glucose. Your kidneys receive 20–25 percent of your total cardiac output. Normally about 1200 ml of blood flows through the kidneys each minute.


What is the total ATP generated for 1 molecule of glucose using oxidative phosphorylation in eukaryotes?

Approximately 30-32 ATP molecules are generated from 1 molecule of glucose during oxidative phosphorylation in eukaryotes. This process occurs in the mitochondria and involves the electron transport chain and ATP synthase to produce ATP from the energy released during the breakdown of glucose.


How many ATP molecules are produced per molecule of glucose during glycolysis?

In glycolysis two net molecules of ATP are formed. Four ATP are formed but two are required in the initial activation of glucose.


Why is cellular respiration considered an efficient process?

Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration. Glycolysis produces much less ATP (2) than the combined total ATP of the rest of aerobic respiration (about another 30). The majority of ATP is produced by the electron transport chain. Cellular respiration is considered more efficient than glycolysis because it produces significantly more ATP. ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate.

Why can 18 times as much ATP be generated from glucose in the presence of oxygen than when oxygen in not available?

The Krebs Cycle and ETC enable the cell to produce 34 more ATP molecules per glucose. The 62 percent of the total energy of glucose that is not used to make ATP molecules is released as heat.

What happens to the total energy in an inelastic collision?

In an inelastic collision, some of the total energy is transformed into other forms such as heat or sound, resulting in a decrease in the total energy of the system.


What is the mass percent of a solution formed by dissolving 50 g of glucose in 1000 g of water?

The total mass of the solution is the sum of the mass of the solute (glucose) and the mass of the solvent (water), which is 50 g + 1000 g = 1050 g. The mass percent of the solute (glucose) in the solution is the mass of the solute divided by the total mass of the solution, multiplied by 100. Therefore, the mass percent of glucose in the solution is (50 g / 1050 g) x 100 = 4.76%.


How can i make a 10 percent glucose solution from 50 percent glucose solution?

Let's say the total solution is 100 liters. 50 of the liters is glucose and 50 is water. We want to make the 50 glucose equal to 10% of the total solution. For that to happen, we need to make the total solution 500 liters (50 of the 500 would be a 10% solution). So we add 400 liters of water to the original 100 liter (50/50) solution. Take the total number of units and multiply by 4. Add that much in water.
