Shоrt аnswer questiоns, аnswer оn blаnk paper. These questions cannot be answered without work, you must show all work for full credit. You must include units with all numbers. Show conversion factors for converting between molecules. Change this to carb synth, then #2 will be complete oxidation in the muscle cell and a comparison of the energy invested 1. (14 points) Consider the synthesis of sucrose in sugarcane, a C4 plant. Sucrose is made from one molecule of glucose-6-phosphate and one molecule of fructose-6-phosphate via a process that requires 1 equivalent of ATP. Answer the following based on making one mole of sucrose. © 2022, Arizona State University How many molecules of CO2 must be fixed to make a mole of sucrose? How many NADPH and ATP are required? How many photons are required by each photosystem to produce the NADPH? How many protons are pumped in conjunction with NADPH production? (round up to nearest whole number) If sugarcane has an ATP synthase with 14 c subunits, how many protons are required to produce the necessary ATP? (round up to nearest whole number) Use the answers to the above two questions to determine the number of protons that must come from cyclic electron flow. How many additional photons are required by photosystem I to produce the needed protons? Arguably the best sugarcane comes from Kauai where they actually divert a stream to grow it resulting in a waterfall going dry for months out of the year (it's really disappointing if you go to the waterfall when it is off). At that latitude, the average wavelength of sunlight during the sugarcane growing season is about 500 nm, resulting in an energy per mole of photons of 239 kJ/einstein. Using this value and the total number of photons, how much energy is required to make a mole of sucrose? 2. (14 points) Let's assume that you ate some of the above sucrose which was hydrolyzed in your intestine to glucose and fructose, followed by absorption and transportation to a muscle cell. Remember that in the muscle, fructose is phosphorylated by hexokinase to give fructose-6-phosphate. © 2022, Arizona State University In the muscle cell, what is the typical ATP yield if both the glucose and fructose were completely oxidized to CO2? If the ∆G for ATP synthesis in the muscle cell is 51 kJ/mol, how much energy does this amount of ATP represent (do this calculation based on 1 mole of sucrose)? What percentage of the sunlight energy that was required by sugarcane to produce the sucrose is actually captured in the form of ATP in the muscle? 3. (15 points) Consider a situation where valine was used by the liver for gluconeogenesis. Valine is metabolized via the following pathway. © 2022, Arizona State University How many molecules of valine would be required for one molecule of glucose? Using the appropriate amount of valine determined above, how many NADH, FADH2, and ATP would be produced or consumed by the conversion of valine into glucose? Assume that any net production of NADH and FADH2 is used in electron transport. What is the maximum net ATP production in the human mitochondria (10 c subunits)? Don’t forget to add/subtract the ATP determined in the above question. Immediately before submitting your exam, you must show your answers to the camera for documentation. What you show to the camera must match exactly with what you submit for grading. Hold your paper about 12 inches from the camera and slowly move your paper to capture the entire page. If you have multiple pages, make sure to show all pages in the proper order. Please only show your work and answers for the short answer questions, do not show any scratch work for the multiple choice section. If you do not show your short answer work to the camera as the last thing you do prior to submitting the exam, you will not receive credit for your short answer work. It is your responsibility to check the Honorlock camera window making sure that you can clearly read what you are showing to the camera. Submit your short answer portion within 10 minutes of your exam submission.
