Metabolism http://quizlet. com/20427637/metabolism-flash-cards: what is a redox reaction, coupled reactions where an electron donor transfers electrons to an acceptor. Why is it necessary for pyruvate to be reduced to lactate or other fermentation product: if glucose is fermented: glycolysis (oxidation of glucose to pyruvate. What organelle do these microbes lack: atp made in hydrogenosome, hydrogenosome oxidize pyruvate to generate atp by substrate level phosphorylation, glucose (through glycolysis) pyruvate pyruvate (now in hydrogenosome) acetyl coa . No3^-, so4^2-, fe^3: what is the terminal electron acceptor for aerobic respiration, o2, what is the terminal electron acceptor for anaerobic respiration, no3^-, so4^2-, fe^3+ or another non-oxygenic molecule, list 4 protein electron carriers. How many electrons and protons can they accept and donate: quinones, receives 2e"s and 2h"s, donates 2 e"s to next electron carrier, which electron carriers contribute to the proton motive force needed to make. 21. 14a in the 12th edition)], anaerobic respiration [fig. 21. 14b in the 12th edition)], and fermentation [fig.

Can you answer the following questions:

1. Carbon monoxide is considered toxic because it acts on Complex IV. How would the addition of carbon monoxide to actively respiring mitochondria affect the relative oxidation-reduction states of all components of the electron-transport chain?

A) All four complexes would remain oxidized because they function as a multisystem complex.

B) Complexes I and III would be reduced, but complexes II and IV would be oxidized because the

electrons come from FADH2 oxidation, not NADH.

C) Complexes I, II, and III would be oxidized but Complex IV would remain reduced.

D) Complexes I, II, and III would be reduced and Complex IV would be oxidized.

E) All four complexes would remain reduced because they function as a multisystem complex.

2. Electrons are not very soluble in hydrophobic environments such as a bilipid membrane. What evidence is there that electrons move from complex to complex through the lipid membrane?

A) Cytochrome C is the electron carrier in the membrane and undergoes a head-over-heel flip to set up the proton gradient.

B) Cytochrome C is the electron carrier in the membrane and contains a cydrophoric porphyrin center.

C) CoQ is the electron carrier within the membrane and seems to be confined to the respirasome.

D) CoQ is the electron carrier within the membrane and it contains a hydrophobic porphyrin center.

E) FeS clusters are the carriers within the membrane and the electrons move from one cluster to the

next in a chain-like fashion.

3. What is the rationale for saying that âelectrons flow down the electron-transport chainâ?

A) Electrons flow from oxidized carriers to reduced carriers in discrete steps like a staircase.

B) Electrons flow from half-reactions with more positive redox potentials to more negative.

C) Electrons flow from reactions that continuously generate negative free energy values.

D) Electrons flow from the outer surface to the inner surface, a top down perception.

E) Because we think of electrons flowing like a liquid, the only direction electrons can flow is down.

1. During the TCA cycle, four reactions occur in which a pair of electrons are transferred from a substrate to an electron accepting coenzyme. These reactions are catalyzed by?

2.During the TCA cycle, four reactions occur in which a pair of electrons are transferred from a substrate to an electron accepting coenzyme. These reactions are catalyzed by?

8.When FADH₂ is the electron donor, electrons are passed directly to ____ in the respiratory chain

9.With the exception of ____, all of the redox centers within the respiratory chain that accept and donate electrons are prosthetic groups.

10.It iis evident fromt eh net equation fo the TCA cycle that the primary products of the pathway are the reduced coenzymes _____.

11. Complex III catalyzes the transfer of electrons from ___ to ___.

12. The passage of a pair of electrons from NADH to ubiquinone in the respiratory chain is accompanied by movement of roughly four protons from (the) ___ to (the) ___.

13. When NADH is the electron donor, electrons pass the respiratory chain by means of ____.

14. The matrix of the mitochondrion has a gel-like consistency owing to the presence of a high conentration of _____.

These are questions I missed on a quiz the instructor does not post what the answers should be and has not responded to my emails please help.

Thanks,
