What is the role of hydrogen ion gradient used for in cellular respiration in the mitochondria?

The hydrogen ion gradient is used to drive ATP synthesis. 32 to 34 molecules of ATP are produced. The hydrogen ion gradient is the result of NADH in the electron transport system of the mitochondria.


Are all mineral crystals are made of ions?

Yes mineral crystals are made of ion's


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'.
