Concept Introduction:
Electron transport chain
The enzymes that help in electron transport chain are embedded within the inner membrane of mitochondrion.
Mitochondria: It is a membrane bound organelle present within the cell cytoplasm of the eukaryotes.
They are also known as power houses of the cell since cellular respiration occurs there that results in ATP production.

- What are the reasons why the number of ATP produced by cellular respiration is not known exactly?arrow_forwardWhat do the electrons added to NAD do? a. They become part of a fermentation pathway. b. They go to another pathway for ATP production. c. They energize the entry of the acetyl group into the citric acid cycle. d. They are converted into NADP.arrow_forwardIs NADH a protein?arrow_forward
- Which of the 2 equations represent cellular respiration? 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy --------> C6H12O6 + 6O2 C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---------> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energyarrow_forwardWhat is the function of cristae in the mitochondrion?arrow_forwardAlong with hydrogen, what else is transferred by NADH to other molecules?arrow_forward
- The Krebs cycle occurs in the Select one: a. cytoplasm, as the compound acetyl CoA enters. b. mitochondria, as the compound pyruvate (C3) enters. c. mitochondria, as the compound acetyl CoA enters. d. cytoplasm, as the compound pyruvate (C3) enters.arrow_forwardWhat thermodynamic force drives the transport of ADP and Pi into the mitochondrial matrix for ATP synthesis?arrow_forwardEach of the cytochromes in the mitochondrion contains prosthetic groups. What is a prosthetic group? Which type of prosthetic group is associated with the cytochromes?arrow_forward
- What is the term for the process whereby the synthesis of ATP is coupled to the conversion of NADH or FADH2 to NAD+ or FAD, respectively?arrow_forwardwouldn't ADP, a reactant of the other (phosphorylating) pathway, tend to inhibit the competing non-phosphorylating pathway (in order to get more ATP made)? And the reverse for ATP (whose presence indicates that pathway may not be needed any more)?arrow_forwardwhat is NAD3?arrow_forward
