Document Summary

There is nothing eukaryotic about this, there are aerobic bacteria out there. Metabolism is catabolic (exergonic, negative gibbs free energy) which produces atp, which in turn drives anabolic processes (endergonic, positive gibbs free energy) such as protein synthesis. In this example it is shown that hydrolyzing atp provides more than enough energy to produce glutamine. Oxidative phosphorylation as a term means you are oxidizing nadh and phosphorylating adp to make atp. Nadh, the intrinsic energy by proton pumping is used to drive. The products of respiratory electron transport are water, Atp synthesis is not linked to electron transport. It is coupled to it but it is only driven through the built up energy. High rates of electron transport lead to high rates of atp production, and visa versa. Chemiosmosis is the use of a chemical (proton) gradient (electrochemical) to do work (making. The more negative the redox potential, the easier it is to oxidize.
