If a cell is able to synthesize 30 atp molecules for each molecule of glucose completely oxidized to carbon dioxide and water, approximately how many atp molecules can the cell synthesize for each molecule of pyruvate oxidized to carbon dioxide and water?
possible answers:
a. 0
b.1
c. 12
d. 14
e. 15

E =15

Explanation:

Basically, 1 molecule of glucose  molecule after substrate level phosphorylation in glycolysis gives 2 molecules of 3 carbon compounds called pyruvate, for complete oxdation .

                           1 GLUCOSE molecule       ⇒ 2Pyruvates.

Each pyruvate molecule can produce  15 ATPs .( in citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation),.Since 30ATPs were produced,;each pyruvate molecule  must have contributed 15 ATPs each for a total of 30ATPs

the answer is; comparing the frequency of collisions with and without the device

this makes the anti-collision system an independent variable and the collisions a dependent variable. if there are fewer collisions with an anti-collision system that without, then it can be stated that the system is a success. essentially, collisions under an anti-collision system are compared with the frequency of collisions by cars with the human drivers.

answer; i believe the correct answer to the above question is ( friction)
