Question

Differentiate between the following: (5)
4) Salting and pasteurisation
5) Glycolysis and krebs cycle

Answer 1

Answer:

4)Salting and sugaring are chemical methods of food preservation that rely on soaking food in a weak solution of salt or sugar.

Pasteurisation of milk kills all microorganisms by rapidly heating the milk until it boils and then allowing it to cool slowly.

5)Glycolysis: the enzymatic breakdown of a carbohydrate (such as glucose) by way of phosphate derivatives with the production of pyruvic or lactic acid and energy stored in high-energy phosphate bonds of ATP.

Krebs cycle: is a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
