Concept explainers
a.
To compare: The electron transport and chemiosmosis on the basis of the source of electrons in mitochondria and chloroplast.
Concept introduction: Mitochondria are found in both plant and animal cells and are the site of oxidative phosphorylation. Chloroplasts are found in autotrophic organisms and are the site of light-dependent and light-independent reactions. Chloroplasts and mitochondria have DNA present in them to synthesize few proteins involved in few reactions inside them. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are said to be
b.
To compare: The electron transport and chemiosmosis on the basis of the mechanism by which the electrons gain high potential energy in mitochondria and chloroplast.
Concept introduction: Mitochondria are found in both plant and animal cells and are the site of oxidative phosphorylation. Chloroplasts are found in autotrophic organisms and are the site of light-dependent and light-independent reactions. Chloroplasts and mitochondria have DNA present in them to synthesize few proteins involved in few reactions inside them. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are said to be parasites that are sheltered inside the eukaryotic organisms as based on the endosymbiont theory. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are similar in several aspects.
c.
To compare: The electron transport and chemiosmosis on the basis of the molecules that collect the electron at the end of these chain.
Concept introduction: Mitochondria are found in both plant and animal cells and are the site of oxidative phosphorylation. Chloroplasts are found in autotrophic organisms and are the site of light-dependent and light-independent reactions. Chloroplasts and mitochondria have DNA present in them to synthesize few proteins involved in few reactions inside them. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are said to be parasites that are sheltered inside the eukaryotic organisms as based on the endosymbiont theory. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are similar in several aspects.
d.
To compare: The electron transport and chemiosmosis on the basis of the process by which the energy given up by the electrons is used.
