any type of heavy metal.  Like Mercury for example.

Steroids, Creatine, or working out like your life depended on it. All three ways could kill you though.

Its poisonous. Its multiple hydroxyl groups can pass it off as a sugar into tissues where it can wreck havoc.

(m)\n\nmetabolic pathway analysis, it should be considered that many enzymes operate with low specificity (e.g. nucleoside diphosphokinase, uridine kinase, transketolase, aldolase), so that various substrates and products can be converted. Here, we analyze the effect of enzymes with low substrate specificity on the elementary flux modes (pathways). We also study the benefits of two different approaches to describing multifunctional enzymes. The usual description is in terms of (overall) enzymatic reactions. At a more detailed level, the reaction steps (half-reactions, hemi-reactions) of the formation and conversion of enzyme-substrate complexes are considered. Multifunctional enzymes operate according to various mechanisms. This is illustrated here by the reaction schemes for the different enzyme mechanisms of bifunctional enzymes. For enzymes with two or more functions, it is important to consider only linearly independent functions, because otherwise cyclic elementary modes would occur which do not perform any net transformation. However, the choice of linearly independent functions is not a priori unique. We give a method for making this choice unique by considering the extreme pathways of the hemi-reactions system. A formal application of the algorithm for computing elementary flux modes (pathways) yields the result that the number of such modes sometimes depend on the level of description if some reactions are reversible and the products of the multifunctional enzymes are external metabolites or some multifunctional enzymes partly share the same metabolites. However, this problem can be solved by appropriate interpretation of the definition of elementary modes and the correct choice of independent functions of multifunctional enzymes. The analysis is illustrated by a biochemical example taken from nucleotide metabolism, comparing the two ways of description for nucleoside diphosphokinase and adenylate kinase, and by several smaller examples.

The answer is C.  Glucose + oxygen are metabolized through glycolysis, the krebs cycle and electron transport chain to produce a net gain of 38 ATP (energy) and produce H20 and CO2 as byproducts.

glycolysis-occur in the cytoplasm\nelectron transport chain-occur in the mitochondria\nkrebs cycle-occur in the mitochondria.\nif you consider mitochondria as part of the cytoplasm then all of the above..\nbut if not then it will be (a)

The quickest absorption will be of the 2-glucose "polymer."  That way, every cut by the enzyme yields two glucoses.  With any other chain length, each cut would yield one glucose until the last cut, which would yield 2.\n\nAnything wrong with amalyse?

Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate.  It occurs in the cytosol of the cell.  There are 10 enzyme-catalyzed steps, in which 2 net molecules of ATP are produced.

Kreb cycle and glycolysis - is what I initially answered\n\nHowever, if it is a standard test/textbook question the questioner is asking, then the answer is probably going to be 2 different mechanisms/pathways. It probably is going to be AEROBIC and ANAEROBIC metabolism.

Glycolysis.\n\nOne molecule of glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvic acid generating energy in the form of ATP and NADH. This is one of the most common metablic pathways known, being found in the majority of living organisms.

Hi Cogitum.  Arsenic poisoning can lead to abnormal accumulation of pyruvate.  "Arsenite (the trivalent form of arsenic) forms a stable complex with thiol (-SH) groups of lipoic acid, making that compound unavailable to serve as a coenzyme.  When it (arsenite) binds to lipoic acid in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, pyruvate (and consequently lactate) accumulate.  ...this particularly affects the brain, causing neurologic disturbances and death."\n\nThis is taken directly from "Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews; Biochemistry, 3rd edition by Champe and Harvey and published in 2005.\n\nIn plain english, the textbook is saying that arsenic (a common heavy metal that is very toxic) prevents the enzyme that converts pyruvate into acetyl coA from doing just that.  The result is a buildup of pyruvate and lactate in the blood and a significant loss of energy production by the body.  The net result of all this is brain injury.  \n\nI encourage you to share this with your doctors.  Best wishes and good luck!

E.  Your not going to hit the citric acid cycle or electron transport chain in an anaerobic environment so its not a or d.  B is impossible you can't just make more ATP during glycolysis.  I'm pretty sure when you oxidize pyruvate and NADH you just make Lactate and NAD.  The replenishing of NAD allows glycolysis to occur more quickly.
