What else can I help you with?
Why is the electron transport chain aerobic and not anaerobic?
The electron transport chain is aerobic because it requires oxygen to function. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the chain, allowing for the production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. In contrast, anaerobic processes do not require oxygen and can occur in the absence of oxygen.
Does electron transport chain need oxygen?
Yes, the electron transport chain requires oxygen to function effectively. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the chain, which allows for the generation of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. Without oxygen, electron transport and ATP production are significantly impaired.
In which membrane is the electron transport chain located?
The outer membrane is where the electron transport chain is located.
Why is the process of etc considered an aerobic process?
The process of etc, or electron transport chain, is considered an aerobic process because it requires oxygen to function. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, allowing for the production of ATP, the cell's main energy source. Without oxygen, the electron transport chain cannot proceed, making it dependent on aerobic conditions.
In prokaryotes, where is the electron transport chain located?
In prokaryotes, the electron transport chain is located in the cell membrane.
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 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 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 biochemical uncoupling?
Biochemical uncoupling is a process where the electron transport chain in mitochondria is disrupted. This disruption leads to a decrease in ATP production and an increase in heat generation. This can happen through the actions of certain compounds like uncoupling proteins or chemical agents.
Why is oxygen needed for the electron transport chain?
Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, which allows for the production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. Without oxygen, the electron transport chain cannot function properly, leading to a halt in ATP production and ultimately cell death.
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
Gas needed for electron transport chain?
The "gas" needed for the electron transport chain is Hydrogen. In the electron transport chain its not Hydrogen gas H2 but a Hydrogen Ion H negative that flows across the membrane to produce engery.
