what is RQ? how does RQ help in identifying respirator substrate? how many ATP molecules are generated in one cycle of glycolysis |
|
Answer» The respiratory quotient, is a DIMENSIONLESS number USED in CALCULATION of basal metabolic rate when estimated from carbon dioxide production.Respiratory quotient is the moles of carbon evolved per mole of oxygen consumed. It is INDIRECT but a fairly rapid method of measurements to determine the lack of substrate in the growth medium.Overall, the process of glycolysis produces a net GAIN two pyruvate molecules, two ATP molecules, and two NADH molecules for the cell to use for energy. |
