Aerobic respiration statements?

Aerobic respiration is the difference in H+ concentrations on opposite sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane. This is taught in science.


What happens when sucrose is taken up by active transport?

Outside the cell is high concentration of hydrogen ions and low concentration of sucrose. Inside, is the opposite, low concentration of hydrogen ions, and high concentrations of sucrose. Cells use ATP to pump a hydrogen ion across the cell membrane, against the concentration gradient, and when the hydrogen ion goes to re-enter, it goes through a Sucrose-proton cotransporter. This means that the hydrogen ion (proton) take a sucrose molecule with it when it goes though the membrane.

What is the direct energy source that drives ATP synthesis during respiratory oxidative phosphorylation?

The difference in H+ concentrations on opposite sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane. During oxidative phosphorylation, NADH and FADH oxidizes at the hydrogen carriers to provide electrons to the electron transport chain (etc) (chain of electron carriers) and H+ ions. As electrons pass through the etc, ATP is synthesized. If energy is ever needed along the process, ATP is used. But i doubt it as the electron do not require external chemical energy to move along the carriers.
