Hi can you please answer to those questions explain this to me , if possible giving examples . Thanks A 45 year old man was rushed to the ER after ingesting "Galaxodin," a hypothetical poison. Explain why Galaxodin is toxic knowing that it increases the pH of the intermembrane space of mitochondria! You will need to give a comprehensive explanation of the process of energy conversion starting from NAH ending in ATP under normal conditions. Include details such as the transfer of electrons, the proton gradient, and chemiosmosis, NADH and FADH2, and ATP synthase must be mentioned. The majority of your grade will come from this part. Then explain why Galaxodin is so toxic!

Concerning human biology, the major role of a cell's mitochondria is to provide the cells with usable energy in the form of ATP. In regard to the cellular respiration equation: Food + x(consumes) -----> y(produces + energy (ATP). As for "x" (what the cell consumes), I believe the answer is oxygen. As for "y" (what the cell produces), I'm guessing the answer is carbon dioxide. Could you please verify this, and better explain it to me?

DRAW IT The graph here showsthe pH difference across theinner mitochondrial membraneover time in an actively respiringcell. At the time indicated by thevertical arrow, a metabolic poisonis added that specifically andcompletely inhibits all function ofmitochondrial ATP synthase.

Read all the parts of this question before answering. Thermogenesis is a metabolic process used to generate heat in many homeothermic/endothermic/warm-blooded animals and a few species of plants. Thermogenesis involves an uncoupling protein that allows protons to flow from the intermembrane space back into the mitochondrial matrix. a. What two processes – which are normally energetically coupled – become uncoupled by the action of uncoupling proteins? b. What kind of a protein allows ions such as H+ to diffuse through a membrane?
In phase II of ETS diagram and label the ATP synthase along with the inner mitochondrial membrane it is sitting in. Your diagram must show the intermembrane space and the mitochondrial matrix. Describe how it works step by step
a) Explain how in oxygenated tissue your cells use your MITOCHONDRIA to produce energy: DESCRIBE the processes occurring in your MITOCHONDRIA (intermediate stage, Krebs, and ETC), Make sure to mention where those processes occur.b) How many ATP per glucose are formed in your mitochondria? Where are they formed?
Luckily, protons (a.k.a. hydrogen ions or H+) are small enough to passively go right through a membrane, otherwise mitochondria would have to work too hard to regenerate ATP! True or False?
Describe the main functions of the different components of the ATP synthase enzyme in the mitochondrion. A structurally similar enzyme is responsible for the acidification of lysosomes and endosomes. Given what you know about the mechanism of ATP synthesis, explain how this acidification might occur.
EVOLUTION CONNECTION ATP synthases are found in theprokaryotic plasma membrane and in mitochondria andchloroplasts. (a) Propose a hypothesis to account for anevolutionary relationship of these eukaryotic organelles andprokaryotes. (b) Explain how the amino acid sequences ofthe ATP synthases from the different sources could be usedto support or refute your hypothesis.
In living cells, the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP + P is the main supply of energy. ATP releases its energy in areas of the cell where some work is being carried out. If ATP underwent hydrolysis spontaneously, anywhere and at anytime within a cell, would life as we know it be possible? Please answer asap and in short and content should not be palgarised please
It has been estimated that mitochondria occupy 20% of the volume in the human body. For a 70- kg adult, the average number of mitochondria has been estimated to be 1 × 10 (10,000 trillion). Using this information, provide a rough estimate of the average mass of a mitochondrion.
Please explain the Krebs Cycle how you understand it. Explanation The Krebs cycle is most often referred to as the TCA cycle or the citric acid cycle. During this cycle, a multitude of metabolic events take place in the mitochondrial matrix, which is involved in cellular respiration during aerobic respiration. During this cycle, glucose and other molecules are broken down into ATP , therefore the cell's energy currency, and carbon dioxide are created. To create ATP, the Krebs cycle produces NADH and FADH2 that are necessary in the process stage of cellular respiration known as the electron transport chain. An enzyme called acetyl CoA is applied in the Krebs cycle, which provides ATP and carbon dioxide. Question: Please respond to the explanation post above on Krebs cycle.
