Fully explain how cellular respiration is a chemical process whereby the bonds of food molecules and oxygen molecules are broken
Marianna [84]
Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Along the way, some ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose. Much more ATP, however, is produced later in a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation is powered by the movement of electrons through the electron transport chain, a series of proteins embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion.
These electrons come originally from glucose and are shuttled to the electron transport chain when they gain electrons.


As electrons move down the chain, energy is released and used to pump protons out of the matrix, forming a gradient. Protons flow back into the matrix through an enzyme called ATP synthase, making ATP. At the end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts electrons and takes up protons to form water. Glycolysis can take place without oxygen in a process called fermentation. The other three stages of cellular respiration—pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation—require oxygen in order to occur. Only oxidative phosphorylation uses oxygen directly, but the other two stages can't run without oxidative phosphorylation.).

Describe how a faulty protein alters the movement of chloride ions across the cell membrane. How does this change in the cell me
andrezito [222]

Answer:

CFTR protein facilitates the transport of chloride ions and water across the cells. Genetic defect in the CFTR gene results in defective protein synthesis.  This defect in CFTR protein disrupts the chloride and water channel across the cell.  The CFTR protein acts as a channel across the cell membranes which are specialized to produce mucus, sweat, tears etc. Failure of transport channel will result in symptoms like secretion of thick mucus. This mucus can obstruct the airflow and glands resulting in symptoms of cystic fibrosis.
