2 Biology Discussion

The purpose of this Biology Discussion is to help each other understand the main concepts presented in the chapters covered this week. General Biology, the required readings are Chapters 4 -7.  

Each student must make at least three (3) entries during the week. *One of the entries MUST ask a question about a concept/idea presented in the required readings in the textbook from the chapters covered this week . This should be a question pertaining to material that you personally do not understand or need clarification on and should be at least 40-50 words in length. Question topics cannot be claimed, and it is one question topic per student.  This will aid in diversifying the discussion.  Broad categories are posted already in the discussion board. Post your question under the category to which it best applies. State your question in the subject line of the post. This will create a list of questions and that everyone will be able to see.  *The two remaining entries must offer an explanation in answer to a classmate’s question. Your responses must be researched, and the content of your response must be supported by reliable and credible resources.  These  two response posts must be a minimum of 200 words each. *Ground rules for the Biology Discussion: Each post must be in your own words. Do NOT copy and paste from the Internet. [Review the Plagiarism presentation in the Student Resource Center.]  It is better to paraphrase content/information (putting the content/information in your own words) from a resource.  Paraphrased information from resource is required to be properly cited per APA requirements*, with it-text citations immediately following the information and a full reference citation at the end of the discussion board posting. [*Refer to the Getting Started area of the class for ‘Helpful Resources & Websites on Referencing Sources per APA’ and to the Student Resources tab on the left-hand side of the classroom.]

Cellular Respiration Involves Redox Reactions – Text Alternative

Return to parent-slide containing images.

In the reaction, glucose combines with six molecules of oxygen giving six molecules of carbon dioxide, six molecules of water, and energy. Both oxidation and reduction occur during cellular respiration. The glucose molecule is oxidized to produce carbon dioxide and oxygen molecules are reduced to generate water molecules.

Figure 7.3 The Four Phases of Complete Glucose Breakdown – Text Alternative

Return to parent-slide containing images.

The first stage of cellular respiration is glycolysis in which a glucose molecule breaks down into pyruvate. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. The net gain of ATP in glycolysis is 2ATP. The pyruvate enters into mitochondria and undergoes a preparatory reaction. C O2 is produced in the reaction. Further, the products of the preparatory phase undergo a citric acid cycle reaction during which 2ATP and C O2 are produced. The last step is the electron transport chain. During the process, the carrier molecule NADH transfers electrons from the original glucose molecule to an electron transport chain. In this way, the electrons move within the inner membrane of the mitochondria by NADH and FADH2, ultimately being pulled to oxygen found at the end of the chain. The oxygen and electrons combine with hydrogen ions to form water. This step generates 34 ATP molecules.

Figure 7.4 Glycolysis, Energy-Harvesting Steps – Text Alternative

Return to parent-slide containing images.

Right Top: Step 1: energy investment step: glucose is broken down to ADP and P which is converted to G3P and P. Step 2: energy-harvesting steps: G3P is converted to BPG, while N A D superscript positive is converted to NADH in the presence of P. BPG is converted to 3PG, while ADP is converted to ATP. 3PG is converted to water and P which is converted to pyruvate. Net gain: 2 ATP.

Left Bottom: In the reaction, the reactant shows a chain of three spheres having first and third spheres linked with two phosphate groups each. The bond of the first phosphate group is marked as substrate. The phosphate group attached to the third sphere binds to an enzyme and on the conversion of ADP into ATP gives the product as a chain of three spheres with the first sphere linked to a phosphate group. A dotted curvy arrow shows the linking of the phosphate group to the ADP molecule.

Return to parent-slide containing images.

The steps are as follows:

1. A 6-carbon glucose molecule converts into two molecules of a 3-carbon compound attached with a phosphate group at one end. Two molecules of ATP break into ADP with a net loss of two molecules of ATP.

2. Two molecules of a 3-carbon compound on the addition of two molecules of phosphate and conversion of two N A D positive into two NADH forms two molecules of another 3-carbon compound attached with phosphate groups at both ends.

3. Further, the 3-carbon compound on the conversion of four molecules of ADP into four molecules of ATP forms two molecules of pyruvate.

Figure 7.7 The Anaerobic Pathways 2 – Text Alternative

Return to parent-slide containing images.

In fermentation, two molecules of pyruvate form either two molecules of lactate or two molecules of alcohol. The formation of lactate during fermentation is called lactic acid fermentation (exemplified by a photo of a woman in activewear bent down with her hands on her knees). The formation of alcohol during fermentation is called alcohol fermentation (exemplified by a photo of an alcohol bottle). If alcohol is formed, then the conversion of two NADH taken from glycolysis converts into two N A D positive, and two molecules of carbon dioxide are given out. The net gain of the process is 2 ATP.
