It is a proof-based question. Consider a woman-proposing version of the Deferred Acceptance algorithm. Prove that the woman-proposing version of the Deferred Acceptance algorithm is strategy proof for women. Hint: Repeat the same steps we made in class to prove that a man-proposing DA is strategy-proof for men.

Discuss the following: The hormonal regulation of blood glucose and the effect it has on glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and glycogen metabolism.

Briefly describe one microbial fermentation. What does fermentation recycle to keep glycolysis functioning?
In: Biology
If fermentation did not occur during anaerobic metabolism, glycolysis would come to a screeching halt. Why?

Protein Denaturation:
1) If changing the pH of an enzyme solution greatly reduces the activity of that enzyme without precipitation, how could you tell in the lab if it were the result of denaturation or just going to a pH that is just not a good one for the enzyme? And how would a change in pH impact or even stop enzyme function without denaturation? (Consider the enzymes that are active in your stomach, such as pepsin-discussed in Wikipedia.)
2) For changes that precipitate a protein, are some more likely than others to be denaturation?

A two-carbon molecule, acetyl is combined with co-A as a result of pyruvate processing (with the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex). What happened to the 3rd carbon which was present in pyruvate?
How many glucose molecules are needed to make 24 acetyls in pyruvate processing?
Where and how many NADHs are generated (during glycolysis, pyruvate processing, and CAC) ?
What will happen to the NADHs after they are generated?
What is the net gain of ATP per glucose molecule which was metabolized through glycolysis and fermentation?
