What happens to electrons as they are transported along the the electron transport chain?
The electrons are transported through a series of carrier proteins via simultaneous oxidation-reduction reactions. The carriers harvest energy from these electrons to pump H+ ions across the inner mitochondrial membrane. When the electrons reach the very end of the chain i.e. complex 4, they are transferred to Oxygen atoms to form O2- ions. O2- ions then combine with H+ ions in the mitochondrial matrix to form H2O.
What are electrons passed from during electron transport chain?
Electrons are passed from one protein complex to another in the electron transport chain, which is a series of protein complexes embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. This process generates a proton gradient that drives the production of ATP, the cell's energy currency.
How many electrons does it take to equal to the mass of one proton?
electrons are a 2000th of the mass of a proton/neutron. Because of this very low mass, electrons dont affect the mass number of elements on the periodic table
What is hydrogen called when it gives up electrons?
When a hydrogen atom loses an electron, it is simply a proton.
How many electrons does it take to equal the mass of 1 proton?
It would take about 1836 electrons to equal the mass of 1 proton. This is because the mass of an electron is much smaller than that of a proton.
When electrons are transported to enzyme complex 1where is a proton transported?
To the intermembrane state :)
What enzyme is primarily responsible for removing electrons from organic molecules?
Oxidases perform oxidation reactions (remove electrons) on organic molecules. Dehydrogenases perform a similar action but removes a hydride ion instead (2 electrons and a proton).
What part of the photosynthetic cycle involves an enzyme taking a molecule of NADP and adding two electrons and one proton to it?
The part of the photosynthetic cycle that involves an enzyme adding two electrons and one proton to a molecule of NADP is known as the Calvin cycle. Specifically, this process occurs during the reduction phase, where NADP+ is reduced to NADPH. This reaction is facilitated by the enzyme ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR), which plays a crucial role in transferring electrons from photosystem I to NADP+, ultimately contributing to the formation of glucose and other carbohydrates.
Which protein complex in the electron transport chain after photosystem 2 produces ATP?
The protein complex in the electron transport chain after photosystem II that produces ATP is ATP synthase. This enzyme is responsible for converting the energy stored in the proton gradient into ATP through a process known as oxidative phosphorylation.

When tracing the flow of electrons in the mitochondria which represents the correct pathway?
Electrons flow through the electron transport chain (ETC) in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The pathway starts with NADH and FADH2 passing their electrons to complex I and complex II, respectively. The electrons then flow through the complexes, generating a proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis.
What is the proton neutrons and electrons of hydrogen?
1 proton and 1 neutron
Where does a pair of electrons reaches the second electron carrier enough energy has been released to pump a proton from the stroma?
The pair of electrons reaches the cytochrome complex, where energy is released. This energy is used to pump a proton from the stroma into the thylakoid space against a concentration gradient, contributing to the proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis during photosynthesis.
Is an atom or a proton more complex?
A proton is just one constituent of an atom therefore the atom is more complex.
How many electrons in one proton?
Electrons do not fit inside a proton or neutron. Electrons move around the nucleus where the protons and electrons are, and the mount of electrons depends on the atom. For a neutral atom the number of electrons = the number of protons. If that does not hold true the atom will receive a (+) or (-) charge. It will be a (+) if it is missing one electron and a (-) if it has an extra electron. To the guy who wrote that, the question was asking (in size) how many electrons could fit inside a proton relative to its size. The answer is about 1/1836 electrons could fit inside a proton.
Can you attract electrons or proton?
yes
What particle does the proton attract?
Electrons
