Question 1

Describe the components and functions of the ETS

Answer 1

It is composed of a substrate dehydrogenase, which receives a pair of electrons from an organic or inorganic substance. It donates the electrons to a mobile electron carrier, such as quinone.
A terminal oxidase complex receive the elctrons from quinol, while the H is transclocated outside and this process is also couple to the pumping of two H outside

Question 2

Answer 2

Dissimilatory denitrification reduces the oxidized form of nitrogen and excruded from the cell.
Assimilatory reduction increases the biomass of an organism

Question 3

Answer 3

The use of photoexcised electrons to power cell growth

Question 4
