In 1906 Harden and Young, in a series of classic studies on the fermentation of glucose to ethanol and CO2 by extracts of brewer's yeast, made the following observations.

(A) Inorganic phosphate was essential to fermentation; when the supply of phosphate was exhausted, fermentation ceased before all the glucose was used.
(B) During fermentation under these conditions, ethanol, CO2, and a sugar phosphate accumulated.
(C) When arsenate was substituted for phosphate, no sugar phosphate acumulated, but the fermentation proceeded until all the glucose was converted to ethanol and CO2.

Answer the following questions.

1. Which enzyme of glycolysis requires inorganic phosphate and therefore stops when no phosphate is available?
(a) glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase
(b) phosphoglycerate mutase
(c) phosphofructokinase-1
(d) phosphoglycerate kinase

2. What sugar phosphate accumulates under these conditions?
(a) glucose 1,6-biphosphate
(b) glucose 1-phosphate
(c) fructose 1-phosphate
(d) fructose 1,6-biphosphate

3. Arsenate substitution for phosphate generated an acyl arsenate compound that immediately degraded. What glycolysis intermediate was a product of the spontaneous degradation of this acyl arsenate?
(a) glycerol 3-phosphate
(b) 3-phosphoglycerate
(c) dihydroxyacetone phosphate
(d) glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate

In a sample of oxygen gas at room temperature, the average kinetic energy of all the balls stays constant. which postulate of kinetic molecular theory best explains how this is possible? a. attractive forces between gas particles are negligible because the particles of an ideal gas are moving so quickly. b. collisions between gas particles are elastic; there is no net gain or loss of kinetic energy. c. gases consist of a large number of small particles, with a lot of space between the particles. d. gas particles are in constant, random motion, and higher kinetic energy means faster movement.

Imagine that a new planet is discovered with two moons of equal mass: moon a and moon b. the mass of the new planet is greater than the combined mass of its moons. moon a is farther away from the new planet than moon b. what is the planet's gravitational pull on moon a compared to the planet's gravitational pull on moon b? the planet's gravity repels moon a with a greater force than it repels moon b, which is why moon a is farther away. the gravitational pull on moon b is greater than on moon a because moon b is closer to the new planet than moon a. the gravitational pull on moon b is greater than on moon a because moon b is farther away from the new planet than moon a. the gravitational pull on moon a is the same as the gravitational pull on moon b because distance does not affect the planet's gravity.
