26
Q

Where in mitochondria (Free electrons are taken up by a final electron acceptor)

A

matrix

27
Q

Where is the electron transport chain located?

A

Inner membrane of mitochondria or thylakoid membrane

28
Q

What creates a proton gradient in the ETC?

A

Proton pumps and electron carriers alternate

29
Q

Explain the ETC

A

High energy electrons pass from electron carriers which provides energy to drive the proton pumps
Protons are pumped into the space between the membranes
Gradient allows protons to pass back into the matrix via ATP synthetase
Electrochemical gradient provides the energy needed for the phosphorylation of ADP to from ATP
Chemiosmosis

Catabolic and Anabolic

34
Q

What catabolic metabolism does

A

Breaks down

35
Q

39
Q

Where is energy stored

A

High energy bonds between phosphate groups

40

42
Q

ATP is produced in 2 sets of reactions

A

Photosynthesis and Respiration

43
Q

Advantages of using ATP as an energy carrier

A

Only one enzyme needed to break/combine
30.5kj mol-1 released so less energy wasted
Energy release is controlled

44
Q

Substrate level phosphorylation

A

A donor molecule will donate a phosphate group

45
Q

Oxidative Phosphylation

A

Occurs in the ETC
Energy for synthesising ATP comes from a series of redox reactions
