Question
Answer
What is the first molecule that feeds into the citric acid cycle?   Acetyl-CoA  
🗑
How many NADH and FADH are produced from one acetyl-CoA entering the citric acid cycle?   3 NADH and 1 FADH  
🗑
How many ATP are produced from 1 glucose?   28 ATP  
🗑
How many ATP can be made without the reactions occurring in the mitochondria?   2 ATP  
🗑
What is a source of oxaloacetate (other than malate) in the liver?   Aspartate  
🗑
What enzyme catalyzes PEP from oxaloacetate?   PEP carboxylase  
🗑
How does alanine eventually end up in the citric acid cycle?   Alanine is converted to pyruvate and then acetyl-coA  
🗑
What citric acid cycle component is glutamate synthesized from?   Alphaketoglutarate  
🗑
Why are acetyl-CoA, fatty acids, citrate and succinyl-CoA negative regulators of the citric acid cycle?   These products regulate by feedback inhibition  
🗑
Why is ATP a negative regulator, while ADP and AMP are positive regulators?   High concentration of ADP and AMP indicate that the cell is out of energy  
🗑
In what cell is Ca2+ a regulator?   Muscle  
🗑
What fungus produces large quantities of citric acid to be used as an additive for food?   Aspergillus Niger  
🗑
Which Citric acid cycle intermediate is used for heme synthesis?   Succinyl-CoA  
🗑
What is the purpose of citric acid addition to food?   It is an antioxidant used to preserve food flavor  
🗑
How many negatively charged carboxyl groups does citrate have?   3  
🗑
What metal can citrate bind?   Aluminum  
🗑
When the pH of soil is less than 5.0, is aluminum soluble or insoluble?   Soluble- it is the Al+3 form  
🗑
When the pH of soil is alkaline, is aluminum soluble or insoluble?   Insoluble- it is in the Al(OH)3 form  
🗑
What happens to food crops when soil is high in aluminum and low in pH?   The plants take up the soluble aluminum which inhibits their growth  
🗑
How can increasing the secretion of citric acid help plants grow in certain soil conditions?   Citric acid could potentially bind the Al+3 and prevent it from being taken up by the cells  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
