Co2 from respiration-Sugars vs Fats

lol idk, is the extra co2 just from pyruvate dehydrogenase step? so C18H36O18 vs stearic acid would only give 6 extra co2 since that would be (6) C3H6O3

ETC - purpose of having different dehydrogenases?

Hey guys, There's something I'm a bit confused by. I've been reading about how E. coli can have different NADH dehydrogenase complexes (more specifically, NDH-1 and NDH-2). One major difference between the two is the fact that NDH-1 is a coupling site (so pumps out protons while ...

Spectrophotometry - why can't some products be read?

Hi folks, I'm reading about this coupled reaction between hexokinase/glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in regards to spectrophotometry. The reaction I'm given is: glucose + ATP ----(hexokinase)---> G-6-P + ADP G-6-P + NADP+ <---(G-6-P dehydrogenase)---> 6-phosphogluconolactone ...
