Re: Buffer capacity

... experiment.) If you now add another 0.01 mole of NaOH and the pH changes to 7.24: now the buffer capacity is 0.01/0.12 = 0.083. The change in the equivalents of base added to the solution is the same, but the change in pH is different, so the buffer capacity is different. Again, I completely made ...

Re: Clarification of the Various Metabolic Pathways

... is the 3-carbon unit, pyruvate, which enters the mitochondrion (in eukaryotes) where it is processed by the TCA cycle to produce reducing equivalents in the form of NADH, which in turn drive the electron transport cycle, producing ATP with the help of the natural EMF potentials of the ...

Cellular respiration

... mis-spoke (which wouldn't be the first time that has ever happened), or you misunderstood the textbook. To simplify: food is converted to reducing equivalents (electrons) which is used to fix oygen into water (well, hydrogen peroxide initially, but that quickly converts to water; and "fixing" ...

Viral origins?

... more mutations. So the attachment proteins and the coat would have to be acquired in some way. There would also be enzymes for protease, integrase equivalents. The integrase enzymes would have to come from somewhere. There are some more essential enzymes I cant think of right now, but basically ...
