8.Oxidation of the 10 molecules of NADH produced from each glucose therefore accounts for almost 80 percent of the total energy released from the sugar. What does the ETC do with all this energy?

  2.Compare the functions of starch and glycogen with a note about their different linkages. answers:  Difference between Starch, and Glycogen The table below shows the main differences between starch, cellulose and glycogen. Starch Glycogen It is a polymer of 𝜶-glucose subunits It is a polymer of 𝜶-glucose subunits It contains two types of polymers, amylose (unbranched and coiled) and amylopectin (branched) It is highly branched and similar to amylopectin The 𝜶-glucose subunits are joined by 1,4 glycosidic bonds in amylose and 1,4 and 1,6 glycosidic bonds in amylopectin The 𝜶-glucose subunits are joined by 1,4 and 1,6 glycosidic bonds Amylose is unbranched and amylopectin is branched It is highly branched It is the main storage carbohydrate in plants It is the main storage carbohydrate in animals and fungi Structure of Starch Starch is the main storage carbohydrate of plants. It is made up of 𝜶-glucose subunits. It contains two types of polymers, amylose and amylopectin....

  11.Explain the relationship between electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation. What does ATP synthase look like, and how does it work? answer:  How is electron transport couple to oxidative phosphorylation? Reactions of the electron transport chain take place in the inner mitochondria membrane, and production of ATP in the mitochondria comes from oxidative phosphorylation [ADP is phosphorylated to give ATP] Proton gradient is created by the pumping of electrons and represents stored potential energy, and provides basis for a coupling mechanism.      “Oxidative phosphorylation is the process of ATP formation, when electrons are transferred by electron carriers from NADH or FADH2 to oxygen” What is Oxidative Phosphorylation? Oxidative phosphorylation is the final step in cellular respiration. It occurs in the mitochondria. It is linked to a process known as electron transport chain. The electron transport system is located in the inner mitochondrial membr...

  12.Discuss the different kinds of interactions that stabilize the tertiary structures of proteins.   answers: Protein is made up of polypeptide chains that are the polymers of amino acids. It is a biomolecule. Protein exists in primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structures. The tertiary structure is the three-dimensional structure. It is found in a globular protein. When linear protein is coiled and makes loops it is called tertiary structure. It becomes round. The bonds that provide stabilisation to the tertiary structure of the protein are disulphide bonds, ionic bonds and hydrophobic bonds and wander Waal's interactions. Myoglobin is an example of the tertiary structure of the protein.
