9.4 Questions
Question | Answer |
---|---|
What happens during oxidative phosphorylation? | Chemiosmosis couples electron transport to ATP synthesis` |
What accounts for most of the energy extracted from food? | NADH & FADH2 |
What do NADH & FADH2 donate their electrons to? | the electron transport chain |
Where is ETC located? | In the inner membrane or, cristae of mitochondria. |
What is the main component of the ETC? | Proteins, specifically in multiprotein complexes. |
What do carriers alternate when they give & receive electrons? | they alternate reduced and oxidized states |
What is the final electron acceptor? What does it form? | O2. It forms H2O |
ETC generates to ATP indirectly. T or F? | False, and generates ATP directly through redox reactions. |
Electron transfer in ETC pumps H+ ions from *** to ***? | From the mitochondria to the inner membrane space. |
How does H+ move back across the membrane? | Passes through ATP synthase, |
Comparable to water in a dam... | energy is stored in H+ |
Where is ATP synthase imbedded? | it is embedded in the membrane of the mitochondria. |
What does ATP synthase use. to convert ADP to ATP? | an ion's motion |
Without oxygen, can we make ATP? | NO |
In what sequence does eenergy flow? | glucose> NADH> ETC> proton motive force> ATP |
About what percentage of glucose is transferred to ATP during respiration? | 34% |
About how much ATP is produced? | about 32 ATP |
Is the number of ATP produced exactly known? | NO |
