How many total ATP can be made from a 20-carbon fatty acid? Answer the question below and show your calculations in the table below: A. How many Acetyl-CoA are produced? B. How many cycles of ?-oxidation will take place? Process | Reducing equivalents and ATP made: (Show Calculations) | Total # of ATP used/made: Step 1: "Activation" Step 2: "Transport" Step 3: "?-oxidation" | NADH: | FADH: | ATP: -CoA into Krebs Cycle: | NADH: | FADH: | ATP: TOTAL:

How much ATP can be produced from a saturated fatty acid that contains 20 carbons? Show your work for your calculation. Indicate number of electron carriers produced. Each NADH will produce 2.5 ATP, and each FADH2 will produce 1.5 ATP.

How much ATP is produced using a 19 carbon fatty acid? How much ATP is produced using a 18 carbon fatty acid? Which one produces more ATP? Please show your work for this and use 2.5 ATP for NADH, 1.5 ATP for FADH2, and 1 ATP for GTP when calculating.
Determine the number of ATPs that can be generated from the b-oxidation of the fatty acid myristate (14:0), assume 3 ATPs from each NADH and 2 ATPs from each FADH2. Show the details of each step of your calculations as follows: a) determine the number of rounds of b-oxidation b) what are the products of the rounds of b-oxidation: # of acetyl-CoAs and # of FADH2 and NADHs c) follow acetyl-CoAs to the TCA: # of NADHs, FADH2 and ATP from the acetyl-CoAs,, how many ATPs from these redox cofactors? d) amount of ATP from the redox cofactors coming directly from ATP? e) total amount of ATPs
