Question
Differentiate between
Glycolysis and Krebs' cycle

Answer

Difference between Glycolysis and Krebs' cycle
GlycolysisKrebs' Cycle
1. It is found in the cytoplasm. It does not require O₂.1. Occurs in the matrix of mitochondria. It requires $O _2$.
2. This process takes place in aerobic and anaerobic respiration.2. Occurs only in aerobic respiration.
3. Its product is pyruvic acid.3. Contains $CO _2$ and $H _2 O$.
4. It uses 2 ATP molecules, net gain of 2 ATP and 2 NADH are obtained.4. 30 ATP molecules are formed. 6 ATP are formed from 2 NADH obtained from glycolysis and a total of 36 ATP are formed.

Structures of the bacterial ribosome have provided a framework for understanding universal mechanisms of protein synthesis. However, the eukaryotic ribosome is much larger than it is in bacteria, and its activity is fundamentally different in many key ways. All ribosomes are composed of two subunits, both of which are built from RNA and protein. Bacterial ribosomes, for example of Escherichia coli, contain a small subunit (SSU) composed of one 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and 21 ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) and a large subunit (LSU) containing 5S and 23S rRNAs and 33 rproteins. In contrast to their bacterial counterparts, eukaryotic ribosomes are much larger and more complex, containing additional rRNA in the form of so-called expansion segments (ES) as well as many additional r-proteins and r-protein extensions.
