Glucose 6-phosphate can A) Continue along with glycolysis. B) Be stored as glycogen. C) Be converted to five carbon sugars (pentoses). D) All of the above are fates of glucose 6-phosphate E) Only A and B are fates of glucose 6-phosphate 10.The main purpose of fermentation is: A) Generate lactate for gluconeogenesis. B) Generate ethanol to use as an antibiotic. C) Allow glucose to be completely oxidized to H20 and CO2 D) Provide a means for glycolysis to proceed even under anaerobic conditions E) To oxidize pyruvate 11.Why is overconsumption of fructose thought to lead to obesity? A) It enters glycolysis after the highly regulated phosphofructokinase step. B) Fructose binds to fat and increases fat absorption into the blood. C) It is much more reduced compared to glucose. 7 2 8 9

Explanation / Answer

9.when the ratio of NADP : NADPH increase in the body then body realizes to produce more NADPH , hence it becomes a need to use glucose 6 phosphate which will then dehyrdogenate to produce glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase.This is a irreversible reaction where glucose 6 phosphate uses pentose pathway...

If the cells in the body needs more energy for synthesis then glucose 6 phosphate is Targeted for glycolysis...

glucose 6 phosphate can be converted into glycogen or starch for storage in the body...tgis storage is generally the liver or muscles in the form of glycogen for most of the multicellular organisms....

10.Main purpose of fermentation is to produce more ATP even in the absence of oxygen by regenerating more NAD+ which can take part in glycosis to produce more ATP....

11.Unlike glucose , fructose cannot be consumed by any part of the body other than liver....so it develops a large amount of pressure for liver to consume it ...hence a fatty liver is produced...which in turn directly produces insulin resistance....
