BIOL 005A Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Electron Acceptor, Anaerobic Respiration, Facultative Anaerobic Organism
Document Summary
Biol 005a lecture 10 - respiration part 2 and fermentation. Learning goals: respiration parts 1 and 2. Diagram the flow of energy in an ecosystem. Explain what a redox reaction is and be able to identify which reactant is oxidized and which is reduced. Explain what electron carriers are and why they are important for metabolism. Describe the inputs and outputs of cellular respiration (reactants/products and their purpose, location where reactions take place and why) Explain how oxidative phosphorylation couples electron transport to atp synthesis. Diagram how other macromolecules (besides glucose) are broken down to feed into cellular respiration. During oxidative phosphorylation, chemiosmosis couples electron transport to atp synthesis. The total yield per glucose from glycolysis + the citric acid cycle is 8 nadhs, 2. Totsal yield per glucose from oxidative phosphorylation is 28 atp. The inner mitochondrial membrane couples electron transport to atp synthesis.
