Understand that glucose and other food molecules are broken down to produce usable units of energy in the

form of ATP and NADH: Know the products of glycolysis fermentation, the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation and where these reactions take place in the cell. Glycolysis:

Requires 2 ATP Produces 4 ATP +2 NADH Net: 2 ATP +2 NADH

Understand why mitochondrial density and cristae density changes in response to energy demand
,itochondria that ha-e a higher density of cristae ha-e a larger area of inner membrane and therefore a greater capacity to carry out o*idati-e phosphorylation$ Heart muscle e*pends a lot of energy during its continuous contractions' whereas skin cells ha-e a smaller energy demand$ An increased density of cristae therefore increases the ATP%production capacity of the heart muscle cell$

'xplain what the proton motive force is and how it is used to generate "#$
.lectron transfer is coupled to proton pumping which generates an electrochemical proton gradient /proton moti-e force0 which has two components: (1). An electrical potential: The inside of the membrane is negatively charged relative to the outer (intermembrane) face. /&0$ " p( gradient: The matri* is more basic compared to the intermembrane spac

'xplain how mitochondria become uncoupled and why this is sometimes important)
Uncouplers' such as dinitrophenol /DNP0' dissipate the proton gradient by making the inner mitochondrial membrane permeable to protons$
They sto7 the 7roduction o! ATP by decreasing the storage o! 7rotons in the inter%e%brane s7ace *inhibitors o! electron trans!er- or sto7 the 7roduction o! ATP by inter!ering ith the !unction o! ATP synthase *uncou7lers o! o:idati6e 7hos7horylation-" "
