How many ATP would be produced during the citric acid cycle from two glucose molecules?

Match the following terms with their proper description

13.  Below are several representations of messenger RNA.  Rather than type out nitrogenous base sequences, I am representing sequences with the words Intron and Exon to indicate whether that particular segment of mRNA is an intron or an exon.  Untranslated regions of mRNA are not shown.  Which representation shows an mRNA molecule after processing (all steps of mRNA processing have taken place).

4.  Assume the letters below represent the nitrogenous base sequence of a short “parental” (original, template) DNA polynucleotide strand during DNA replication.  Type the complementary DNA strand in the space provided .  Show the 3ʹ and 5ʹ ends of your complementary strand. 5ʹ   T  G  T  C  A  T  G  T  A  A  A  T  A  G  C  T  A  C  G  T  A  A  3ʹ
