This question is about the pentose phosphate pathway and interconnected metabolic pathways (glycolysis, gluconeogenesis.)
a) What reactions would occur if the cell needed lots of NADPH and only NADPH?
b) What reactions would occur if both NADPH and ATP were both needed?
c) What reactions would occur if nucleotides were needed for DNA synthesis and that was the primary need?

Yeast are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that have been utilized for thousands of years to produce leavened (risen) bread and alcoholic beverages. To make leavened bread yeast are added to the bread dough and once it is placed in a warm place, the yeast cause the bread to rise. Knowing what you do about glycolysis and the fates of pyruvate, explain biochemically why the bread rises.
