Which of the following statements about AG is correct? А. It depends on whether the cell is doing cellular respiration It is less than 0 for fast reactions В. С. It is always less than 0 for spontaneous reactions It can be found only if you know the equilibrium constant and the prevailing concentrations of products and reactants

Imagine that you are working with isolated mitochondria and you manage to double the ratio of protons outside to protons inside. In order to maintain the overall Gat its original value (whatever it is), how would you have to change the mitochondria membrane potential?
So when a cell is in electrochemical equilibrium I know for Cl there is no net movemnet because the electrical and concentration gradients have an equal effect. I also know that when K is an electrochemical equilibrium that the concentration effect is bigger than the electrical effect. Which effect is greater for Na when it is in electrochemical equilibrium the electrical or concentration gradient??

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?
A mitochondrion 1 μm long can travel the 1 meterlength of the axon from the spinal cord to the big toe in aday. The Olympic men’s freestyle swimming record for 200meters is 1.75 minutes. In terms of body lengths per day,who is moving faster: the mitochondrion or the Olympicrecord holder? (Assume that the swimmer is 2 meters tall.)

Under extensive energy needs cells are constantly converting sugar into CO2 as a result of cellular respiration. In order for this process to occur cells need a significant amount of Oxygen. Explain how the production of CO2 and other biproducts of cellular respiration leads to efficient delivery of Oxygen to the cell. ( hint: think T&R state)
A 75 kg person doing light work requires about 3000 kcal of food energy perday, 40% of which is actually used by the body’s cells. (The other 60% is lostas heat and in waste products.) Before being used by the cells, effectively allof this energy is stored in ATP, which is then cleaved into ADP and PO3−2 , with the release of 12.5 kcal per mole of ATP.(a) How many moles of ATP are turned over per day in this fashion? Whatmass of ATP does this correspond to? (The molecular weight of ATP is507 g/mol.)(b) The body actually contains approximately 5 g ATP. Estimate the averagerecycle time for an ATP molecule. You see that it is much more efficientto reuse ADP rather than to synthesize it de novo (from scratch).
