Document Summary

Produce 2 nadph and 2 atp (2) phase 2. Want to convert the 3c pyruvate to co2, occur in mitochondrion in 2 stages. Stage 1: convert the (3c) pyruvate to 2 carbon acetyl-coa by pdh. Stage 2: acetyl-coa to co2 --> this happens in the citric acid cycle which is. Generate 3 nadh, 1 fadh2, 1 gtp for every acetyl-coa. Nadh and fadh go on to the etc where the potential energy in the reducing equivalents --> atp. Inner membrane: invaginated to increase sa -- invaginations called cristae. Only allow small uncharged molecules -- > carbon dioxide, water. Higher concentration of proteins because it contains the transport proteins and protein complexes of the etc. Relative permeability of the etc will set up the proton gradient. One enzyme is part of protein complex ii in the etc embedded in inner mitochondrial membrane. Outer membrane: highly permeable with porins (that allow molecules less than.

		the shuttling of hydrogen ions through the inner mitochondrial membrane

Question 51

In aerobic ATP production, the role of oxygen is to...

All True orFalse

6.___ During the process of human fermentation the pyruvatemolecule produced at the end of glycolysis is converted into athree carbon molecule called ethyl alcohol while NAD+ is reduced toNADH and a CO2 molecule is released to the atmosphere.

7.___ The proton pumps of the inner membrane of themitochondrion are examples of integral transmembrane,active-transport carrier proteins.

8.___ Photosynthetic pigment molecules of plants are able torelease electrons to an ETC that are utilized to power the eventsof chemiosmosis.

9.__ Photoautotrophs (plants) use inorganic CO2 molecules astheir carbon source for building organic molecules and they usepigment molecules as their proximate source of electrons for theprocess of chemiosmosis.

10.__ The overall process of the TCA/CAC is exergonic with theproduction of ATP molecules and NADH/FADH2 all having stored energyderived from the reactants.

11.__ If a chemical reaction is catalyzed by an enzyme then thereactants will be able to initiate a chemical reaction withslightly more activation energy and the reaction would beclassified as an endergonic process if the products have lessenergy than the reactants.

12.__ The chemical reactions of glycolysis, the Krebs Cycle (TCAcycle), and oxidative phosphorylation, are all processes that canonly be performed when O2 is present (aerobic conditions).

13.___ Photophosphorylation is a type of chemiosmotic processand it possesses a key component of electron transport a finalelectron acceptor and in this case an organic molecule (FEA).

14.___ The pigment molecules, that make up a component of thechloroplasts of a plant, absorb light best in the green wavelengthsand that is why the plants appear so green.

15.___ Features in common for oxidative phosphorylation andphotophosphorylation are an electron source from dinucleotideelectron carrier molecules and an inorganic final electronacceptor.

16.___ In the metabolic pathways we discussed one would expectto find a number of points where allosteric enzymes are associatedwith positive feedback and/or negative feedback systems, and insome systems the allosteric enzyme is affected by both types ofregulatory molecules.
