What energy carrier cells use to transport high-energy electrons?
pigment
What energy carrier molecules are produce by glycolysis?
NADH and ATP
What is energy-carrying molecule called?
carrier molecule1. A molecule that plays a role in transporting electrons through the electron transport chain. Carrier molecules are usually proteins bound to a nonprotein group; they can undergo oxidation and reduction relatively easily, thus allowing electrons to flow through the system. There are four types of carrier: flavoproteins (e.g. FAD), cytochromes, iron-sulphur proteins (e.g. ferredoxin), and ubiquinone.2. A lipid-soluble molecule that can bind to lipid-insoluble molecules and transport them across membranes. Carrier molecules have specific sites that interact with the molecules they transport. Several different molecules may compete for transport by the same carrier. See transport protein.
How many types of molecules can a carrier protein transport?
There are nine main types of energy. There are three main types of energy carriers; ATP, NADPH, and NADH. An energy carrier is a incredible molecule that, in itself, sends, receives, and carries.
How does the structure of the membrane speed up or help speed up certain molecule transport without the use of energy?
Fluid membranes such as cellular membranes allow the passage of small and neutrally charged atoms and molecules, such as oxygen. In cells there are also carrier proteins that do not require ATP to transport larger molecules such as water.
What allows the passage of electrons along the series of carrier molecules from higher to a lower energy level?
The electron transport chain.
What is a carrier molecules?
A carrier molecule is a compound that can accept a pair of high energy electrons and transfer them along with most their energy to another molecule. Straight out of the 9th grade textbook
Why do high-energy electrons need carrier molecules?
The energy in light raises some of the electrons in chlorophyll to higher energy levels. These high-energy electrons are used in photosynthesis. Electron carriers are used to transport the electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules during photosynthesis.
When chlorophyll a molecules absorb energy the molecules?
release electrons and energy
Which is a role of photosystem 1 in the light reactions?
to make energy-carrier molecules like NADPH Apex
What is the carrier for energy and high energy electrons during glycolysis?
nadh!
What is NAD?
NAD+ is an electron carrier molecule that helps pass energy from glucose to other pathways in a cell by taking high-energy electrons and holding on to them until they can be transferred to other molecules.
What energy carrier cells use to transport high-energy electrons?
pigment
What kind of energy is the energy of moving electrons?
The energy of moving electrons is electricity. Electrical What_energy_is_the_energy_of_moving_electronsis the passage of electrons through a materials, usually metals.
A type of diffusion that uses carrier molecules but no energy?
diffusion
What energy carrier molecules are produce by glycolysis?
NADH and ATP
