Which compartment of the eukaryotic mitochondrion is responsible for the formation of NADH, and FADH2, during catabolism of pyruvate into carbon dioxide? the mitochondrial matrix the outer mitochondrial membrane the intermembrane space the inner mitochondrial membrane the thylakoid membrane
Oogenesis
The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase.
Cell Division
Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
Which compartment of the eukaryotic mitochondrion is responsible for the formation of NADH, and FADH2, during catabolism of pyruvate into carbon dioxide?
- the mitochondrial matrix
- the outer mitochondrial membrane
- the intermembrane space
- the inner mitochondrial membrane
- the thylakoid membrane
The complete catabolism of glucose into CO2 and H2O generally yields a smaller amount of ATP in aerobic eukaryotes than in aerobic prokaryotes because the aerobic eukaryotes:
- generate more molecules of FADH2 during aerobic respiration
- have transport costs to get NADH into the mitochondrion
- generate more molecules of NADH during aerobic respiration
- are able to use pyruvate as a substrate for fermentation
- always produce ethanol rather than lactic acid as a byproduct
