Why is the citric acid cycle a cyclic pathway rather than a linear pathway? in the oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl coa, one carbon atom is released as co2. however, the oxidation of the remaining two carbon atoms—in acetate—to co2 requires a complex, eight-step pathway—the citric acid cycle. consider four possible explanations for why the last two carbons in acetate are converted to co2 in a complex cyclic pathway rather than through a simple, linear reaction. use your knowledge of the first three stages of cellular respiration to determine which explanation is correct.

You have a solution that contains phospholipid vesicles in a test tube. these vesicles have phospholipid bilayers, but do not contain any membrane transporters. you add a number of different molecules to the solution, and wait a period of time for them to equilibrate. if you could measure the concentration of each molecule, for which of the following would you expect to measure equal concentrations inside and outside of the vesicles? assume for this question that the overall osmolarity inside and outside the vesicles is the same (that is, there is no appreciable diffusion of water across the membrane). (select two answers) an amino acid with a hydrophobic side-chain a small non-polar molecule a negatively charged ion a small polar molecule a small lipid hormone
