Question
Chapter 26.6, Problem 26.6QC
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The reason should be explained how the presence of a protonophore is equivalent to car idling in the driveway instead of moving.
Concept Introduction: Glycolysis is the first step that forms pyruvate. In the presence of oxygen means aerobic respiration, this pyruvate enters in the Krebs cycle and extracts energy in the form of electrons transfer.
The products of citric acid cycles act as precursors for electron transport chains and produces ATP as energy coins.
