What is the energy produced from digesting Turkey (protein). Turkey (protein) many essential amino acids such as tryptophan, threonine, isoleucine, lysine and phenylalanine.

Threonine is a large amino acid and will broken be down into two products: pyruvate and succinyl CoA which are then fed into the citric acid cycle and electron transport chain.

Phenylalalanine is broken down into acetyl CoA and fumarate and fed into the citric acid cycle and electron transport chain.

Please write down all the calculations to determine how much energy is produced. I want energy producing steps written down please.

Which is true about how are cells use oxygen? A. When oxygen is present pyruvate is converted to lactate which enters the citric acid cycle. The reduced coenzymes donate hydrogen ions and high energy electrons to the electron transport chain, and oxygen acts as the final acceptor of hydrogen ions and low energy electrons after the hydrogen ions have passed through ATP synthase. B. When oxygen is present pyruvate is converted to Acetyl CoA which enters the citric acid cycle....

1. Aspartate is metabolized to oxaloacetate, which we know via gluconeogenesis can be used to generate PEP. Assuming the PEP then proceeds to pyruvate and acetyl CoA and enters the citric acid cycle, how much ATP could be generated from the complete oxidation of Aspartate if we assume 1 NADH produces 3 ATP, 1 FADH2 produces 2 ATP, and GTP or ATP are equivalent (1GTP=1ATP). (Also ignore the “cost” of Nitrogen removal; don’t consider the urea cycle) 2. True or...
