Frage 30
Frage
Electron loss during redox in the electron transport chain usually occurs when hydrogen is removed.
Frage 31
Frage
The less negative a substances redox potential, the greater the tendency to donate electrons.
Frage 32
Frage
Carriers of different redox potentials pass their electrons on to carriers with a less negative redox potential.
Frage 33
Frage
Loss of hydrogen indicates oxidation.
Frage 34
Frage
NADH has a less negative redox potential and therefore less ATP is generated from NADH's contribution to the ETC than FADH2.
Frage 35
Frage
What is the chemiosmotic coupling hypothesis?
Antworten
-
The energy from electron transport drives the efflux of hydrogen ions from the matrix into the intermembrane space. This establishes a proton electrochemical gradient. ATP synthesis is driven by ATP synthase using this proton gradient (proton motor force).
-

Frage 36
Frage
What is meant by an uncoupled system such as brown adipose?
Antworten
-
The H+ gradient generated by the energy that is released from the electron transport chain is dissipated as heat instead of being coupled to drive oxidative phosphorylation.
-
The energy released from the electron transport chain is dissipated as heat instead of being coupled to drive oxidative phosphorylation.
Frage 37
Frage
How does ATP synthase generate ATP?
Antworten
-
It allows the proton gradient, established from the energy generated by the electron transport chain, to pass through the membrane and uses this kinetic energy to phosphorylate ADP into ATP.
-
ATP synthase phosphorylates ADP into ATP from the energy from the electron transport chain.
-
ATP synthase phosphorylates cAMP into ATP using the proton gradient established from the energy from the electron transport chain.

Frage
Brown adipose is important in thermoregulation in neonats and for animals that hibernate.
Frage 40
Frage
How does an uncoupler such as dinitrophenol work?
Antworten
-
It carrys the H+ back into the matrix therefore the proton gradient that is established is not used to make ATP via ATP synthase.
-
It blocks the ATP synthase membrane bound enzyme, therefore stopping oxidative phosphorylation.

Frage 47
Frage
ATP is produced during the krebs cycle.
Frage 48
Frage
How many molecules of NADH are produced during the krebs cycle?
Frage 49
Frage
Why can the krebs cycle not occur without O2?
Antworten
-
Although the TCA/krebs cycle does not need O2 directly, regeneration of NAD+ and FAD depend upon O2 as a terminal electron acceptor at the end of the ETC. Without O2 as the terminal electron acceptor, the ETC cannot proceed as electrons are not being terminally accepted and thus FADH2 and NADH cannot reduce the ETC carriers as electrons are not passing through the system. Without NAD+ and FAD available, conversion of certain intermediates cannot occur in the TCA cycle but more importantly Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate cannot be converted to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate.
