Document Summary

Electron carrier: molecules that are capable of accepting electrons from one molecules. They can donate them to another molecule in the process of electron transport. As electrons are transferred from one electron carrier to another, their energy level decrease & energy is released. Electron carriers in respiration are nad+ & nad. Nad+/nadh: nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is a coenzyme that plays a key role in energy metabolism by accepting & donating electrons. Low energy from nad+ is raised to high energy form nadh. Intermembrane space: it"s the spa(cid:272)e (cid:271)et(cid:449)ee(cid:374) the i(cid:374)(cid:374)er & outer (cid:373)e(cid:373)(cid:271)ra(cid:374)e of (cid:373)ito(cid:272)ho(cid:374)dria. Proton gradient is created in the intermembrane by the etc. This gradient is used to drive oxidative phosphorylation. Matrix: it"s the i(cid:374)ter(cid:374)al spa(cid:272)es e(cid:374)(cid:272)losed (cid:271)(cid:455) i(cid:374)(cid:374)er (cid:373)e(cid:373)(cid:271)ra(cid:374)e. the ker(cid:271) c(cid:455)(cid:272)le o(cid:272)(cid:272)urs i(cid:374) (cid:373)atri(cid:454). Its also the site if the electron transport chain. Glycolysis: it"s a set of (cid:1005)(cid:1004) e(cid:374)z(cid:455)(cid:373)e (cid:272)atal(cid:455)zed rea(cid:272)tio(cid:374)s that (cid:271)reakdo(cid:449)(cid:374)s glu(cid:272)ose to releasing energy & pyruvates.
