Oxidative phosphorylation depends on a pair of coupled reactions – one involving the electron transport chain and the second involving ATP synthase. a) Describe the first coupled reaction that involves the electron transport chain. Which process or reaction is exergonic and which is endergonic? b) Describe the second coupled reaction that involves the ATP synthase. Which process or reaction is exergonic and which is endergonic?
