What molecule is a reactant in the first step and final product in the fourth step of the Calvin benson cycle?
RuBP
Where happen the first step of cellular respiration?
Glycolysis, where 1 glucose molecule (C6H12O6) splits into 2 pyruvate (C3H6O3) and produce 2 ATP.
What is the first stage of cell respiration?
energy is captured form sunlight glycolysis
Name one reaction were ATP is required?
The first reaction of glycolysis, where glucose is phosphorylated (a phosphate group is added) to give glucose - 6 - phosphate requires ATP. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme hexokinase
Explain why an initial investment of ATP is required for the prepatory steps of glycolysis?
In the first stage of glycolysis, there is an initial investment of ATP energy in breaking down a molecule of glucose. The phosphate from this ATP molecule (which later catabolizes to ADP) is transferred to the 6th carbon atom in the glucose molecule. Therefore, the initial investment of energy in glucose creates glucose-6-phosphate. What is so significant about glucose-6-phosphate? The phosphorylation of glucose makes it more reactive. Or you could think of it like this: What is the whole point of cellular respiration? It's to break down complex organic material to create energy, right? So a complex molecule, glucose for example, is difficult to break down in the first step. By energizing this glucose molecule, you are breaking the bonds. This breaking of bonds ultimately spurts the whole catabolysis reaction.
What is a reactant that runs out first in a reaction called?
The Limiting Reactant is the reactant that runs out first in a reaction.
What is the reactant that runs first out in a reaction called?
The Limiting Reactant is the reactant that runs out first in a reaction.
What is the reactant called that gets used up first?
The Limiting Reactant is the reactant that runs out first in a reaction.
What is the definetions of limiting reactant in chemistery?
In a chemical reaction the limiting reactant is the reactant that there is the least of in the reaction; it determines the amount of product formed. In a chemical reaction it is the reactant that gets completely "used up"
The first step in cellular respiration that splits a molecule of glucose to release energy is called?
Glycolysis.
What is a limiting reagents?
The reactant that is used up first in a reaction.
Which of these enzymes catalyzes the first reaction in glycolysis?
Hexokinase
If you double a concentration of a reactant then the rate of the reaction doubled The order with respect to the reactant is?
First order; the rate is directly proportional to the concentration of reactant.
Which molecule is a reactant in the first step in the final product in the first step of the Calvin-benson cycle?
RuBP
What is produced because of the glycolysis reaction?
The first stage of cellular respiration is glycolysis. It is an anaerobic process that is initiated by 2 ATP molecules and a glucose molecule. The end products are 2 NADH molecules, 2 molecules of pyruvic acid, and a net gain of 2 ATP molecules.
What are the starting molecules for glycolysis?
Glycolysis harvests chemical energy by oxidizing glucose to pyruvate improvement Glucose is starting molecule for glycolysis.
The first stage of cellular resperation is?
Glycolysis, in which glucose molecule is converted into pyruvic acid (pyruvate).
