The electrons stripped from glucose in cellular respiration end up in which Compound?

The electrons stripped from glucose in cellular respiration end up in the molecule NADH (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). NADH then carries these electrons to the electron transport chain to generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.


What happens to glucose when it has been stripped of all its protons and electrons?

When glucose has been stripped of all its protons and electrons, it becomes a completely ionized form known as gluconate, which carries a negative charge. This process typically occurs under extreme conditions, like in a plasma state.


What is the source of energy in electron transport?

IN electron transport chain, NaDH2 and FaDH2 get reduced to give electrons. NaDH2--->DH2+ + 2e- FaDh2---->DH2+ + 2e-


How is the role of oxygen in cellular respiration similar to the role of NAD plus in fermentation?

As they both accept electrons and are reduced, but NAD carries stripped electrons from glucose ( becoming NADH ) to the electron transfer chain while oxygen is the final electron acceptor.

Which molecule loses electrons in cellular?

glucose--> novanet


What is the smallest particle in a glucose?

There are so many particles in a glucose molecule! The smallest atom is the hydrogen atom, but the hydrogen atom is made out of protons, neutrons, and electrons, the smallest being electrons. Who knows what electrons are made out of?


What molecules supply electrons to an electron transport chain?

Glucose. Glucose is oxidized and oxygen is reduced here.


Which moleculs loses electrons in cellular respiration?

The electrons from glucose are carried to the electron transport system by which of the following?

NAD+


What do motichondria break down?

Pyruvate ( the result of glucose breakdown in glycolysis ), a three carbon molecule, enters the Citric acid cycle and through a series of oxidation and reduction events electrons are stripped for the electron transport chain while another organic molecule is reconstituted so the cycle can begin again. Then the mitochondria uses those electrons in the transport chain to synthesize ATP.
