please help with the following bullet points for #4.

ee 2. Why is the citric acid cycle described as amphibolic? 3. In eukaryotes, where does glycolysis and the citric acid cycle occur? 4. List the 8 steps of the citric acid cycle (3 points) a. Identify each step with a few words that describes what occurs in that step. b. Write the overall reaction for each step. c. Identify the enzyme (s), coenzymes, and cofactors involved in each step 5. What is the amount of ATP produced in the citric acid cycle per glucose molecu 6. Which three enzymes control the citric acid cycle? 7. What is the role of the glyoxylate cycle in plants and some bacteria? 8. What is an anaplerotic reaction?

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Q1.ans: The 3 steps involved in aerobic respiration are:

*The first step in is glycolysis,

*the second is the citric acid cycle and

*the third is the electron transport system.

Q2ans:An amphibolic pathway means containsboth catabolic and anabolic processes.

*The KREBS CYCLE or citric acid cycle is a series of reactions that degrades acetyl CoA to yield carbon dioxide, and energy

And that is used to produce NADH, H+ and FADH.

Q3.ans: Glycolysis in cytoplasm,

TCS in mitochondria.

Q5ans:. In TCA the products are

6 NADH molecules(6×3=18ATP),

two FADH2 molecules(2×2=4ATP),

and two ATP molecules.

So,totalATP=24.

Q6. Answer:3controling enzyme:

1.citrate synthase,

2.isocitrate dehydrogenase

3.-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase.

Q7ans:The glyoxylate cycle, it is a type ofvariation of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, is an anabolic pathway occurring in plants, bacteria, protists, and fungi.

**The glyoxylate cycle involves the conversion of acetyl-CoA to succinate for the synthesis of carbohydrates.

Q8answer:

Anaplerotic reactions ,are chemical reactions that form intermediates of a metabolic pathway.

Example: the citric acid cycle (TCA cycle).
