How many ATPs all together does Cellular Respiration Produce?

-
ATP
step
-2
priming glycolysis
+4
substrate level phosphorylation (glycolysis)
+6
2 NADH produced (glycolysis)
-2
transportation of two NADH into mitochondria
+6
2 NADH produced in conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA
+18
6 NADH produced during Kreb's cycle
+4
2 FADH2 produced during Kreb's cycle
+2
substrate level phosphorylation (Kreb's cycle)
+36
total ATPs produced from one glucose from aerobic respiration in eucaryotes. Compare with total from glycolysis alone (i.e., 2 ATP).

Boom in Brooms: The Potentials of Tiger Grass Industry

-

Marigondon Norte is a tiger grass growing village in San Andres, Romblon. It is located in the northeastern part of the municipality along the lush and rolling mountains of central Tablas. It is bounded by San Agustin in the east and Calatrava in the north. It has an approximate total land area of 2,800 hectares and is home to about 221 households of 1,175 (NSO, 2005) people. It is a typical remote agricultural Philippine village, barely reached by technological breakthroughs because of its rugged trails and far-flung distance (about 14-18km) from the town proper. Although passable to robust motorcycles and sturdy vehicles, transportation remains a major problem because large portions of the service road are still in bad shape and condition.

Lightning and Mushroom Growth

-
One time in my class several years ago, a student asked me why do mushrooms flourish after lightning. All I could mutter was, mushroom absrobed the nitrogen in the air because there is no way it can be directly absorbed but through that process. (lols). Here's one that gives a better explanation:

Rubrics

As opposed to most traditional forms of testing, performance assessment does not have clear-cut or wrong answers. Rather there are degrees to which a student is successful or unsuccessful. This can be accomplished by creating rubrics. Airasian, (1991) Popham, (1995) and Stiggins, 1994) were cited by Brualdi (2000) on their definition of rubric as a rating system by which teachers can determine at what level of proficiency a student is able to perform a task or display knowledge of a concept. With rubrics, the different levels of proficiency for each criterion can be defined. Scoring rubrics are descriptive scoring schemes that are developed by teachers or other evaluators to guide the analysis of the products or processes of students’ efforts (Brookhart, 1999). Scoring rubrics are typically employed when a judgment of quality is required and maybe used to evaluate broad range of subjects. In the article by Heidi Goodrich Andrade published in American Leadership in 1999, he defined rubr...
