Breaking down food for energy without using oxygen is?
Anaerobic cellular metabolism/respiration.Oxygen is used as the ultimate electron acceptors in the electron transport chain which produces a proton gradient for the chemiosmosis (ATP formation). Certain organisms use nitrate or sulfate instead of oxygen. Fermentation is an example of anaerobic respiration.
How do you convert proximate analysis of coal to ultimate analysis?
how to convert proximate analysis of coal to ultimate analysis
The ultimate goal of both diffusion and osmosis is?
The ultimate goal of both diffusion and osmosis is to reach a state of balance.
What is ultimate carcinogen?
Ultimate carcinogen: It is activated and chemically reactive form of a carcinogen or procarcinogen that is capable of direct covalent binding to nucleic acid or protein macromolecules. For example: Benzo(a)pyrene is an ultimate carcinogen.
What is the ultimate serum on 39 clues?
Alist on how to mix the serum to get it work and once u drink it u become the ultimate cahill
What is considered the ultimate electron acceptor?
Oxygen in aerobic respiration.
What cell respiration process reduces molecular oxygen to water?
Oxygen is the ultimate electron acceptor in cellular respiration, with water as the byproduct.
What is the ultimate electron acceptor in photosynthesis?
nadp+
What is the ultimate electron acceptor in aerobic respiration?
oxygen
Is respiration organic?
Cellular respiration, in a nutshell, is a serial flow of electrons through the cell membrane, from oxidizable substrates (like sugars) to the ultimate electron acceptor (like oxygen), resulting in generation of energy, which is utilized for various cellular processes. When the ultimate electron acceptor is oxygen it is called aerobic respiration, whereas when the ultimate electron acceptor is the elemental sulfur or copper or a ferric ion (in the absence of oxygen) it is called anaerobic respiration. But when the oxidizable substrate was an inorganic hydrocarbon chain and the electron acceptor was an inorganic element, such as one of the above elements, occurring through an inorganic membrane, it may be called 'inorganic respiration', which was the way the initial respiratory process took place and the purpose of this was to keep the membrane potentials 'alive'.
The electrons that are passed to NADPH during noncyclic photophosphorylation were obtained from?
The electrons that are passed to NADPH during noncyclic photophosphorylation were obtained from water. The ultimate electron and hydrogen acceptor in the noncyclic pathway is NADPH+.
What complex process is required for the actual formation of ATP molecules?
This is a very vague question. Catabolism would be the best answer. Different organisms use different pathways to generate ATP. Humans can use respiration (glycolysis, citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation) where O2 is the ultimate electron acceptor. Certain microbes use other electron acceptors like Sulfur to generate ATP in the electron transport chain.
What is the ultimate electron donor?
The final electron acceptor is NADP. In oxygenic photosynthesis, the first electron donor is water, creating oxygen as a waste product. In anoxygenic photosynthesis various electron donors are used. Cytochrome b6f and ATP synthase work together to create ATP.
Is the electron transport part of cellular respiration?
Yes, it's ultimate goal is to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), and its end product is a oxygen molecule which then combines with a free floating hydrogen proton to form H2O. The H2O is what is used to start the process of photosynthesis over again because that is where the electron particle comes from to aid in making NADPH (energy).
What are the functions of NAD and FAD?
To oxidize the intermediate products of glycolysis and the citric acid cycle and then, in reduced state, take their electrons and hydrogens to the systems of the electron transport chain where ATP production is the ultimate result.NAD + --> NADHFAD + --> FADH2
What is the ultimate aim of respiration?
the ultimate aim of respiration is to produce energy and to purify blood to sustain life
In noncyclic photophosphorylation what is the ultimate acceptor of electrons that have been produced from the splitting of water?
Carbon dioxide is a noncyclic photophosphorylation and is the ultimate acceptor of electrons that have been produced from the splitting of water. A product of both cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation is ATP.
