What are 3 major steps in cellular respiration?
Actually there are 4 steps of aerobic cellular respiration Glycolysis, Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, kreb's cycle, electrton transport chain
Adenosine triphosphate is produced in greatest quantity during?
electron transport chain.
What step of respiration produces the most energy for the organism?
electron transport chain?
What is the final stage of aerobic respiration?
Glycolysis --> Pyruvate Oxidation --> Krebs Cycle--> Electron Transport Chain
In which membrane is the electron transport chain located?
The outer membrane is where the electron transport chain is located.
What procces in respiration happens last?
Electronic transport chain
What is the role of NAD plus in the electronic transport chain during respiration?
NADH+ provides electrons for the é transport chain.
When oxygen is not present what does not function?
electron transport chain does not function
What provides the electron transport chain in cellular respriration with the energy it needs function?
what provides the elctrons transport chain in cellular resporation with the energy it needs function
What is the slowing or stopping of an early reaction in a biochemical pathway when levels of the end product become high called?
The slowing or stopping of an early reaction in biochemical pathway when levels of the end product become high is to stimulate electron transport chain. Electron transport chain is a series of linked chemical reactions.
What is the function of oxegyn in the electron chain transport?
The final electron acceptor, pulling, by virtue of it's high electronegativity, electrons down the transport chain.
What is a series of biochemical reactions that release carbon dioxide and result in fermation of ATP?
I think you are looking for either "the citric acid cycle" or "the electron transport chain"
What is the purpose of electronic transport chain?
To use energy from the passing of electrons in electron carriers into a high concentration of hydrogen ions
What are 3 major steps in cellular respiration?
Actually there are 4 steps of aerobic cellular respiration Glycolysis, Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, kreb's cycle, electrton transport chain
What are the final product of electron transport chain?
An electron transport chain couples a reaction between an electron donor(such as NADH) and an electron acceptor (such as O2) to the transfer of H+ ions across a membrane ,through a set of biochemical reactions. These H+ ions are used to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which is the end product of the ETC.
Oxygen is known as the "terminal electron receptor" in the electron transport chain. Suppose an organism lacks the ability to breathe in oxygen.What is the most likely effect an oxygen deficit would have on the electron transport chain in mitochondria?
Cyanide binds the electron transport chain at the level of complex IV
Without a terminal electron acceptor, the electrons of and would have nowhere to be released, and all of the enzyme complexes involved with the electron transport chain?
Cyanide binds the electron transport chain at the level of complex IV
