If 2 NADH molecules were produced in glycolysis, it means that 1 glucose molecule was broken down. Each glucose molecule yields 2 NADH molecules during glycolysis.
Resperation
The first three-carbon compound produced in glycolysis is glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) from the six-carbon glucose molecule. This occurs after the glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate.
When starches are broken down, the primary monomer produced is glucose. Starch is a polysaccharide made up of long chains of glucose units linked together. Through the process of enzymatic hydrolysis, enzymes like amylase break these chains into individual glucose molecules, which can then be utilized by the body for energy.
576 glucose molecules would be produced upon total hydrolysis of the polysaccharide. Each glucose molecule represents one unit of the polysaccharide chain, so when it is broken down, each unit is released as a glucose molecule.
Glucose! science! Band 1! I know who you are!
Glycolysis is the process during which glucose is broken in half, and produces pyruvic acid (3-carbon compound)
Resperation
The monomer that is formed when starch is broken down is GLUCOSE.
The first three-carbon compound produced in glycolysis is glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) from the six-carbon glucose molecule. This occurs after the glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate.
It means that when one molecule of glucose is completely broken down by the process of aerobic cellular respiration, 38 molecules of ATP are produced.
The 3-carbon molecule produced when glucose is broken in half in glycolysis is pyruvic acid. It gives energy to living cells through the Krebs cycle.
That energy is stored in ATP. ATP is the currency of energy.
576 glucose molecules would be produced upon total hydrolysis of the polysaccharide. Each glucose molecule represents one unit of the polysaccharide chain, so when it is broken down, each unit is released as a glucose molecule.
Cellulose is composed of glucose molecules linked together. To calculate the amount of glucose produced from 1 gram of cellulose, you need to consider the molecular weight of cellulose and the ratio of glucose molecules per cellulose molecule. Each cellulose molecule can be broken down into multiple glucose molecules through hydrolysis.
Glucose! science! Band 1! I know who you are!
First stage only.
Large carbohydrates are broken down by hydrolysis, or the addition of water molecules.
