Which molecules donate electrons to the electron transport chain?
I have no idea i clicked on the wrong question to answer
Most of the NADH that delivers high-energy electrons to the electron transport chain comes from?
The Citric Acid Cycle or also know as the Kreb Cycle.
Which molecule enter electron transport?
FADH2 and NADH
When NADH passes its electrons to the ETC it is?
NAD+
Why do high-energy electrons need carrier molecules?
The energy in light raises some of the electrons in chlorophyll to higher energy levels. These high-energy electrons are used in photosynthesis. Electron carriers are used to transport the electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules during photosynthesis.
The electron transport chain receives electrons directly from?
NADH
What is the process in which NADH transfers electrons to oxygen?
electron transfer phosphorylation (ETP)
What is the purpose of electron carriers in cellular respiration?
The purpose of electron carriers such as NADH and FADH2 is to dump electrons at the electron transport chain. This creates a proton gradient and allows oxidative phosphorylation to take place.
Which molecule could be termed the final resting place last molecule to be reduced final electron acceptor of the electrons donated by nadh and fadh2 to the etc?
oxygen
What combines to make NADH and FADH?
NADH and FADH2 lose their electrons, and the energy from those electrons is used to produce ATP. At the end of the electron transport chain, the energy of the glucose molecule is converted to a form that the cell can use to power cellular work. NADH and FADH2 interact with proteins embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane, losing their electrons to them in the process. These electrons will move through a series of proteins in the membrane, which make up the electron transport chain. The oxidized NAD+ and FAD are then able to accept more electrons from glycolysis and the Krebs cycle to keep the process going.
In eukaryotic cells nadh and fadh2 are transported along electron carriers of the?
In eukaryotic cells, NADH and FADH are transported along electron carriers of the inner mitochondrial membrane. NADH stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide.
When NADH loses a hydrogen ion?
It becomes NAD. This happens during electron transport where NADH drops off its H+ and electrons to be used in oxidative phosphorylation. NAD now must move to glycolysis or citric acid cycle to regain its hydrogen.
When NADH passes its electrons to the ETC it is?
NAD+
Most of the energy extracted from food is stored in the molecules of NADH and FADH2 How is the energy released Explain.?
NADH and FADH2 are electron carriers (they store energy in the form of energetic electrons) and pass these electrons to the electron transport chain, which uses a series of redox reactions driven by the energetic electrons to pump protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The protons re-enter the mitochondrial matrix via ATP synthases, leading to the production of ATP - the energy currency of the cell.
What is the overall of an atom?
The overall of an atom is a nucleus (protons and neutrons), and 1 or 2 electrons. The rest are for large atoms: an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons.
Which two compounds react during fermentation?
During fermentation NADH reacts with pyruvic acid by passing high-energy electrons back to pyruvic acid. This action converts NADH back into the electron carrier NAD+, allowing glycolysis to continue producing a steady supply of ATP.
What is the electron donor in lactic acid fermentation?
During lactic acid fermentation of glucose,Pyr + NADH --> Lactic acid + NAD(+)During this process NADH donates it's 2 electrons associated with its proton of H, pyruvate acceptsthoseelectrons, and lactic acid is the final reduced product
