What molecule is the common branch point for either the anaerobic or aerobic pathway?
The molecule that serves as the common branch point for either the anaerobic or aerobic pathway is pyruvate. Depending on the availability of oxygen, pyruvate can either be converted into acetyl-CoA to enter the aerobic pathway (Krebs cycle or citric acid cycle) or undergo fermentation in the absence of oxygen.
Which metabolic pathway is common to both cellular respiration and fermentation?
The glycolytic pathway is common to both fermentation and cellular respiration. During the course of the metabolic pathway, glucose is broken down to pyruvate. In the presence of oxygen, the pyruvate molecule becomes involved in the TCA cycle. In the absence of oxygen however, fermentation occures. The process is brought about by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase.
How many protons are in an oxygen molecule?
There are 8 protons in an oxygen atom. There are two oxygen atoms in an oxygen molecule. Therefore, there are 16 protons in an oxygen molecule
How is a molecule of ozone different from a molecule of atmospheric oxygen?
Ozone is a tri oxygen molecule. While the ozone layer is formed by the collection of large number of ozone molecules.
What type of organic molecule is O2?
It is not an organic Molecule, but a Molecule of 2 Oxygen Atoms. O2 is the Oxygen we breath in air, or more scientifically correct, DiOxygen.

What is the path of an oxygen molecule when it enters the human body?
Nostrils-Pharynx-Trachea(Wind Pipe)-Bronchi-Bronchioles-Alveoli
How does the ocelot breath?
The ocelot breathes through its nostrils like other mammals. When it inhales, air enters through its nostrils and passes through the nasal passages into the lungs, where oxygen is exchanged with carbon dioxide. The ocelot then exhales, releasing carbon dioxide from its lungs through the same pathway.
How will you describe the pathway of oxygen in the breathing?
The pathway of oxygen is like a tube or pipe in the breathing system.
How will you describe the pathway of oxygen in the breathing system.?
The pathway of oxygen is like a tube or pipe in the breathing system.
What is the pathway of an oxygen molecule from the atmosphere to its combination with a hemoglobin molecule?
Oxygen reaches the hemoglobin in the blood cells by entering the lungs. The key area of the lungs where the transfer of oxygen and carbon dioxide is made is called the alveoli. The Alveoli has very thin cell walls which allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to pass freely in and out of the blood stream.
How will you describe the pathway of oxygen into the breathing system?
Oxygen enters the respiratory system through the nostrils or mouth, travels down the trachea, and then enters the lungs through the bronchial tubes. It then diffuses across the alveoli walls into the bloodstream where it is transported to cells in the body for energy production.
Is the ATP cp pathway considered the aerobic pathway?
no, it is anaerobic metabolism. (without oxygen, rather than with oxygen.)
What molecule is the source of oxygen?
oxygen is a molecule
Is oxygen a molecule or compound?
Oxygen is a molecule.
What is the atomicity of oxygen in oxygen molecule?
The atomicity of oxygen in an oxygen molecule is 2. This means that each oxygen atom in an oxygen molecule is bonded to another oxygen atom, resulting in a diatomic molecule with the formula O2.
What is said to be if it involves a pathway using oxygen?
Oxygen is transported first by air down the trachea and then transform to the hemoglobin of the blood to the cells. This is the pathway of oxygen in the human system.
