Document Summary
Conserv of e-seen by bonding ions across memb, eq distrib of ions and use anytime. E in first place is na/k pump ions- atp/gtp. By conserve of e. conserve of e in gluc back to atp. Bioenergetics-way we extract e from resources whether its sunlight, glucose. Glucose to co2 and water, c-c bond from glucose brokem, e is released, prod lots of heat. If we combusted co2 in reg manner, conserve each step in form of atp. If high e processes not being checked, can cause a lot of damage in tissues. Cytochrome c- gets released to cytoplasm, when mitochond func begins not to work. So many things can damage a lot of cells. With plants, amt of e that comes from sun, is more than e from glucose. We have to eat, we control glucose levels in plasma, sometimes we cannot eat. If we don"t control glucose, we get diabetes. Co2- from glucose-affects ph, breathing rates, thermoregulation, etc.
