30 - 32 ATP produced
21. Terminal End O2 at the low energy end of the chain
Electron Acceptor accepts electrons to form H2O: O2 +
2e- + 2H+ ----> H2O
ETC + Chemiosmosis
NADH + H+ and FADH2 transfer electrons
to the ETC
electrons released loose energy as they
go down gradient
finally, e- are "drawn" to the O2 at the end
because it wants to form H2O
ATP is forms as H+ flows down gradient
This process accounts for 90% of the ATP
production in Cellular Respiration
18. Parts of Glycolysis + regenerate reaction of NAD+
Fermentation
19. proton - motive refers to the hydrogen ion gradient
force maintained between the matrix and the
membrane of the mitochondria
