When one glucose molecule is converted into lactic acid in anaerobic metabolism, three ATP molecules are generated. When a glucose molecule is converted into carbon dioxide and water via aerobic metabolism, it produces 39 molecules of ATP.However, glycolysis requires powerful enzymes that compensate for the lower energy efficiency of anaerobic metabolism. What limits the anaerobic process is the byproduct, or lactic acid.hen a glucose molecule is converted into carbon dioxide and water via aerobic metabolism, it produces 39 molecules of ATP. However, glycolysis requires powerful enzymes that compensate for the lower energy efficiency of anaerobic metabolism.
Corneal topography, also known as photokeratoscopy or videokeratography, is a non-invasive medical imaging technique for mapping the surface curvature of the cornea, the outer structure of the eye.ince the cornea is normally responsible for some 70% of the eye's refractive power, its topography is of critical importance in determining the quality of vision and corneal health.
Also known as videokeratography, corneal topography is a process for mapping the surface curvature of the cornea, similar to making a contour map of land. The cornea is a clear membrane that covers the front of the eye (See Anatomy of the Eye) and is responsible for about 70 percent of the eye's focusing power.orneal topography is used in the diagnosis and management of various corneal curvature abnormalities and diseases such as: 1  Keratoconus, a degenerative condition that causes a thinning of the cornea. 2  Corneal transplants. 3  Corneal scars or opacities. 4  Corneal deformities. 5  Fitting contact lenses.
