What is the ideal temperature for sperm production?

.What is the ideal temperature for sperm production? The sperm production is best when the temperature is approximately 93.2 F (34*C). This is 5.4"F (3’C) lower than that of the average body temperature of 98.6’F (37*C). However, your testicles might get too chilly for optimal sperm production. Cold temperatures induce the scrotum and testicles to […]

Draw the structural formulas for glucose,

Draw the structural formulas for glucose, glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate, fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, dihydroxyacetone phosphate, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and pyruvate. How is the glucose that is processed in glycolysis taken up in the cell? Is this an energy-intensive process? What is the total reaction if a glucose molecule is processed into the end product of glycolysis? How many moles of ATP, […]
