What is the terminal electron acceptor in aerobic cellular respiration?
NAD+ is the first electron acceptor in cellular respiration (O2 is the final acceptor).
What terminal electron acceptors are used in anaerobic cellular respiration?
anaerobic cellular respiration has 3 different stages, and their final electron acceptors are: pyruvate oxidation- NAD+ Krebs cycle- NAD+, FAD+ electron transport chain- Oxygen
What is Full form of NAD and FAD?
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, abbreviated NAD+, is a coenzyme found in all living cells. The compound is a dinucleotide, since it consists of two nucleotides joined through their phosphate groups, with one nucleotide containing an adenine base and the other containing nicotinamide.In biochemistry, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is a redox cofactor involved in several important reactions in metabolism. FAD can exist in two different redox states and its biochemical role usually involves changing between these two states. Many oxidoreductases, called flavoenzymes or flavoproteins, require FAD as a prosthetic group which functions in electron transfers.
How many FAD and NAD plus molecules are needed for the breakdown of each glucose molecule?
There are 2 FAD and NAD and molecules. This is to breakdown each glucose molecule.
What are the electrons carriers in cellular respiration?
NAD+, (or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide)
What are three hydrogen carriers involved in aerobic respiration?
Nad, nadp, fad
Electrons are brought to the electron transport by what high energy electron carriers?
NADP if photosynthesis. NAD or FAD if cellular respiration.
What are two examples of coenzymes used in cellular respiration?
Acetyl-CoA: CoA=Co-enzyme A; Coenzyme I, coenzyme II, coenzyme A and B-12 and coenzyme Q.
What factors affect the rate of cellular respiration?
The availability of the reactants needed for respiration (CO2, ADP, NAD+, FAD, H+, etc). The reactants are formed by photosynthesis.
What is the terminal electron acceptor in aerobic cellular respiration?
NAD+ is the first electron acceptor in cellular respiration (O2 is the final acceptor).
What terminal electron acceptors are used in anaerobic cellular respiration?
anaerobic cellular respiration has 3 different stages, and their final electron acceptors are: pyruvate oxidation- NAD+ Krebs cycle- NAD+, FAD+ electron transport chain- Oxygen
What hydrogen carriers are used in cellular respiration?
NAD and FAD are the two hydrogen carriers involved in respiration. NAD is reduced in glycolysis, the Link Reaction and the Krebs Cycle to NADH + H+; whilst FAD is reduced to FADH2 solely in the Krebs Cycle. The role of the hydrogen carriers is to transport the hydrogen atoms to the Electron Transport Chain, where their energy is used to join ADP and Pi to give a molecule of ATP.
What are NAD and FAD?
Electron acceptor that carry electrons by becoming reduced from oxidized products of respiration/photosynthesis and carry these electrons to the mitochondria.
What is NAD and FAD?
NAD stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and FAD stands for flavin adenine dinucleotide. Both are electron carriers which have many roles to perform.
What happens that causes hadh to change to nad plus and fadh2 to change to fad?
Loss of electrons causes NADH to become NAD+. This cycle of oxidation reduction helps generate ATP in cell respiration.
A. both NAD plus and FAD b. NAD plus only c. the electron transport chain d. FAD only What electron carrier or carriers function in the Krebs cycle?
A. both NAD plus and FAD
What is Full form of NAD and FAD?
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, abbreviated NAD+, is a coenzyme found in all living cells. The compound is a dinucleotide, since it consists of two nucleotides joined through their phosphate groups, with one nucleotide containing an adenine base and the other containing nicotinamide.In biochemistry, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is a redox cofactor involved in several important reactions in metabolism.
