8. Many types of cancer cells have been detected to secrete significant levels of lactate. Do
you think these cells are likely undergoing beta-oxidation?
A. Yes, because beta-oxidation can generate intermediates that would lead to the production
of lactate.
B. No, because if lactate is being produced, the cell is not likely making use of the pathways
needed to make use of the products of beta-oxidation.
C. Yes, because lactate stimulates beta-oxidation.
D. No, because lactate is consumed in beta-oxidation

The Warburg effect was discovered by Otto Warburg. Through his observations and many
subsequent observations by other scientists, it has been seen that many cancer cells produce
their energy primarily through use of the glycolytic pathway coupled with lactic acid
(lactate) fermentation. If lactate is being produced, that suggests that these cells are not
making use of the Krebs cycle, and/or electron transport chain. This is because they are
utilizing fermentation to regenerate NAD+, instead of making use of the electron transport
chain. Since beta-oxidation generates acetyl-CoA, which can only be used in the Krebs cycle,
the observation that these cells are generating lactate suggests that they are not undergoing
beta-oxidation. Beta-oxidation does not lead to the generation of intermediates that can lead
to the production of lactate, nor does lactate stimulate beta oxidation, and lactate is not
consumed through the process of beta-oxidation.

from pyruvate, rendering that enzyme completely non-functional. Assuming that there is
ample glucose present, how would this cell generate energy in the presence of oxygen?
A. Glycolysis coupled with ethanol fermentation

18. If you take into account the amount of ATP generated by ATP synthase per molecule of
NADH produced in aerobic respiration, the net number of ATP molecules produced by
substrate-level phosphorylation, and the fact that NADH molecules produced in the cytoplasm
have to be transported into the mitochondria, what is the predicted energy yield of glycolysis
in eukaryotic cells?
A. 2 ATP
B. 5 ATP
C. 7 ATP
D. 32 ATP
E. 30 ATP

In glycolysis, a net of 2 ATP molecules are produced, as 2 ATP molecules are invested
during the priming reactions and 4 new ATP molecules are formed. In addition, 2 molecules
of NADH are produced during glycolysis. Each molecule of NADH is predicted to yield 2.5
molecules of ATP, through chemiosmosis, for a total of 5 additional ATP molecules.
However, each molecule of NADH generated by glycolysis has to be transported into the
mitochodria via active transport, which requires 1 ATP molecule per NADH to be
transported. Therefore, the final total energy yield of glycolysis in a eukaryotic cell should
be: 2 ATP + 5 ATP - 2ATP = 5 ATP.

NADH and per molecule of FADH2 produced, and the number of ATP molecules produced

molecule of glucose in eukaryotic cells?

A. 1 ATP
B. 2 ATP
C. 10 ATP
D. 20 ATP
E. 30 ATP

Per molecule of glucose, the Krebs cycle runs twice. This is because glucose is broken down
into two molecules of pyruvate, which each are converted to acetyl-CoA through pyruvate
oxidation. Each acetyl-CoA can enter the Krebs cycle. As a result, per molecule of glucose,
6 NADH, 2 FADH2, and 2 ATP are made via the Krebs cycle. Since it is predicted that for
each NADH, 2.5 ATP are made, and for each FADH2, 1.5 ATP are made, the total number of
ATP that are made v

A. During the priming reactions in glycolysis
B. During the oxidation and ATP formation reactions in glycolysis

Carbon dioxide is lost at the following six steps of aerobic respiration, in this order: two
carbons are lost as carbon dioxide during pyruvate oxidation (one per each molecule of
pyruvate), two carbons are lost during the first oxidation reaction in the Krebs cycle (one per
each molecule of acetyl-CoA), and two carbons are lost during the second oxidation reaction
in the Krebs cycle (one per each molecule of acetyl-CoA). As a result, the second oxidation
in the Krebs cycle is the point at which glucose has been completely broken down from one
6C molecule into 6 molecules of CO2.

32. Cardiac muscle cells need to generate significant amounts of ATP to allow for constant
contractile activity. As a result, they primarily depend upon beta-oxidation of fatty acids,
which has a higher energy yield than the catabolism of glucose. What would be the ATP
yield for beta-oxidation of a hypothetical 10-carbon fatty acid?
A. 32 ATP
B. 35 ATP
C. 50 ATP
D. 62 ATP
E. 65 ATP

For each round of the Krebs cycle, the ATP yield is 10 ATP ((3*2.5 ATP/NADH)+(1*1.5
ATP/FADH2)+1 ATP). For each round of beta-oxidation, one molecule of ATP is invested,
and one molecule of NADH and FADH2 are generated. This means that for each round of
beta-oxidation, 3 ATP are generated. For a 10-carbon fatty acid, there would be four rounds
of beta oxidation to cleave a 10-carbon molecule into five 2-carbon molecules. Thus, from
beta-oxidation there would be a yield of 12 ATP. Each of these 5 2-carbon acetyl-CoA
molecules could enter the Krebs cycle, thus the Krebs cycle will run five times for a total
yield of 50 ATP. Taken together, the oxidation of a 10-carbon fatty acid would yield 62 ATP.

34. If citrate levels are high in the cell, but ATP levels are low, what do you think will
happen in the cell?
A. In the presence of glucose, glycolysis will run to generate energy for the cell, but the
Krebs cycle will be inhibited.
B. Glycolysis will be inhibited, but the Krebs cycle will be functional, allowing it to be
utilized to breakdown acetyl-CoA generated from beta-oxidation.
C. The electron transport chain will be inhibited, causing a build-up of NADH and FADH2.
This will inhibit the Krebs cycle, but in the presence of glucose, glycolysis will still run
coupled with fermentation to regenerate NAD+.
D. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle will both be inhibited, thus under these conditions there
will be no mechanism to generate ATP.

Citrate inhibits phosphofructokinase, and thus inhibits glycolysis. Low levels of ATP will
actually stimulate the Krebs cycle, and thus the Krebs cycle will still be functional. Thus,
acetyl-CoA, generated from beta-oxidation or the breakdown of amino acids, can be further
broken down by the Krebs cycle to generate energy for the cell.

40. Aerobic respiration involves the transfer of many electrons from glucose to electron
carriers such as NAD+ over a series of multiple steps. Ultimately though, it is the reaction of
glucose with oxygen to generate carbon dioxide, water and energy. Why doesn't glucose react
directly with oxygen in cells?
A. Oxygen cannot accept electrons, and thus an electron carrier like NAD+ is needed.
B. Oxygen and glucose are localized in different subcellular compartments.
C. The direct reaction of oxygen with glucose would be extremely destructive to cells.
D. The reaction of oxygen with glucose is not spontaneous.

pyruvate in a eukaryotic cell?
A. 10 ATP
B. 12.5 ATP
C. 25 ATP

molecules are generated. Per acetyl-CoA, the Krebs cycle yields 10 ATP ((3 NADH * 2.5) +
(1 FADH2 * 1.5) + 1 ATP). Therefore, the yield would be 12.5 molecules of ATP.

directly by cyanide?

51. Phosphofructokinase is regulated by a number of factors, including high levels of ATP.


Why is this enzyme regulated by ATP levels?
A. If ATP levels are high, this provides a mechanism to directly inhibit the Krebs cycle, thus
preventing further generation of NADH, FADH2 and ATP molecules that are not needed.
B. If ATP levels are high, it is important to directly inhibit the reaction that commits the
substrate to glycolysis to allow the substrate to be available for other reactions, since the cell
has ample energy.
C. If ATP levels are high, it is important to inhibit ATP synthase, and phosphofructokinase
directly inhibits ATP synthase.
D. If ATP levels are high, this provides a mechanism to directly inhibit the electron transport
chain, thus preventing the formation of a proton gradient in the intermembrane space of
mitochondria.

58. In order to lose weight and reduce body fat, a friend of yours has decided to eliminate all
fat from his diet, while consuming unrestricted amounts of carbohydrates. What do you think
of this idea?
A. It is a good idea, because if your friend doesn't eat any fat, he cannot store any additional
fat.
B. It is a bad idea, because consumption of fat is required to provide cofactors for the
electron transport chain.
C. It is a good idea, because under conditions where ATP levels are low in cells,
carbohydrates will be stored, and fat stores will be catabolized via beta-oxidation to generate
energy.
D. It is a bad idea, because if ATP levels are high in cells, excess acetyl-CoA from the
metabolism of carbohydrates can be used for fatty acid synthesis.
