    (energy)‚ glucose and fructose need to go through glycolysis and enter the Krebs cycle. -Fructose needs enzymes to break it down further‚ before it can enter the glycolysis process. -Initially‚ fructose is broken down by the enzyme fructokinase into fructose-1-phosphate. -The substrate fructose-1-phosphate (F-1-P) is then further broken down by an enzyme aldose B to form two products—DHAP and glyceraldehyde. These two products are what enter glycolysis to make ATP. (Hudon-Miller‚ Enzymes‚ 2012)

    Action of enzymes as catalysts in biochemical processes * Enzymes acts as catalyst and increase the rate of all the chemical reactions. * Enzymes are also described by two properties like all other catalysts. It composed of two main functions. * The first function is that‚ they increase the rate of chemical reactions by without consumed themselves or undergo any change or alteration in the reaction. . ( Zemitec et‚al 2008). * The second function is‚ they increase reaction rates

    glucose molecule that happens to be using oxygen. The three stages of cellular respiration are: Glycosis‚ the Krebs cycle‚ and the electron transport chain. What is the role of glycolysis? Include the reactants and the products. Where does it occur? Glycolysis is the first stage in cellular respiration. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm also. Glucose is converted and then passed onto the Krebs cycle. What is the role of the citric acid cycle? Include the reactants and the products. Where

    BIO 205 Professor: Jill Raymond Aerobic Energy Production Glycolysis Also known as sugar splitting. Takes place in the cytoplasm. There are 8 steps in glycolysis and each steps need a specific enzyme to catalyze. At the end of glycolysis‚ glucose (6 C) is broken into 2 pyruvic acid (3 C) 2 ATP is produced and 2 NADH come in to keep the energy released from broken bonds. The Bridge Before going to the Kreb’s cycle 2 pyruvic acid (3C) becomes 2 Acetyl CoA (2 C). As a result‚ 2CO2 is produced

    1 Two critical ingredients required for cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen. Cellular Respiration‚ process in which cells produce the energy they need to survive. In cellular respiration‚ cells use oxygen to break down the sugar glucose and store its energy in molecules of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cellular respiration is critical for the survival of most organisms because the energy in glucose cannot be used by cells until it is stored in ATP. Cells use ATP to power virtually all of

    the lock and key model does not have to be exact depending on the enzyme and substrate. There is "wiggle room" which allows the two components to adjust to each other‚ similar to a pair of shoes that has "worn in" and become more comfortable. Glycolysis is the cellular process of breaking glucose down into energy. In one of the initial stages of the process‚ glucose is broken down into fructose-6-phosphate‚ a deficiency in aldolase B stops the process. In the case of Hereditary Fructose Intolerance

    breakdown of fructose. Energy obtained from carbohydrates goes through a process called glycolysis. Glycolysis a series of biochemical reactions in which one glucose molecule is oxidized into two pyruvic acid molecules and a small amount of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Generation of high energy molecules are used as cellular energy sources in aerobic and anaerobic respiration. The products formed through glycolysis usually enter into the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain to produce
