All enzymes of TCA cycle are located in the mitochondrial matrix except one which is located in inner mitochondrial membranes in eukaryotes and in cytosol in prokaryotes. This enzyme is
1. lactate dehydrogenase
2. isocitrate dehydrogenase
3. malate dehydrogenase
4. succinate dehydrogenase
The overall goal of glycolysis, Krebs cycle and the electron transport system is the formation of:
1. ATP in small stepwise units
2. ATP in one large oxidation reaction
3. Sugars
4. Nucleic acids
How many ATP molecules could maximally be generated from one molecule of glucose, if the complete oxidation of one mole of glucose to and yields 686 kcal and the useful chemical energy available in the high energy phosphate bond of one mole of ATP is 12 Kcal?
1. | Two | 2. | Thirty |
3. | Fifty-seven | 4. | One |
In respiration from 180g of glucose, which of the following is formed?
1. 264gm +190gm + 391 Kcal
2. 264gm +108gm + 686 Kcal
3. 390gm +108gm + 686 Kcal
4. 390gm + 264gm + 391 Kcal
Glycolysis is found in the cytoplasm of virtually all types of aerobic/anaerobic cells. In this process, glucose is converted into :
1. | PEP | 2. | acetyl CoA |
3. | pyruvic acid | 4. | citric acid |
Which of the following is the connecting link between glycolysis and Kreb's cycle?
1. | Acetyl Co-A | 2. | Oxalosuccinic acid |
3. | Pyruvic acid | 4. | Citric acid |
The enzyme, decarboxylase, catalyses the following step :
1. conversion of citric acid to cis aconitic acid
2. fumaric acid to malic acid
3. oxalosuccinic acid to -ketoglutaric acid
4. malic acid to oxaloacetic acid
After glycolysis, the fate of glucose in the mitochondrial matrix is
1. oxidation
2. reduction
3. oxidative decarboxylation
4. hydrolysis
Which one is the correct sequence occurring in glycolysis?
1. G-6-P →PEP →3-PGAL →3-PGA
2. G-6-P →3-PGAL → 3-PGA →PEP
3. G-6-P →PEP →3-PGA →3-PGAL
4. G-6-P →3-PGA →3-PGAL →PEP
The dough kept overnight in warm weather becomes soft and spongy because of
1. Fermentation
2. Cohesion
3. Osmosis
4. Absorption of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
