The ATPase Synthase Complex Q12.1: Why are 4 H needed for every ATP synthesized and exported by mitochondria, even though only 3

H need to be translocated by the ATP Synthase Complex to synthesize one ATP

Answer:

1 H is consumed in exchanging the synthesized ATP in mitochondria with ADP in cytosol by adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT).

Explanation:

The electrons from NADH and FADH2 are transported in electron transport chain through various complexes that act as electron transporter, to oxygen. In this process, the pumping of protons from mitochondrial matrix to intermembrane space causes a concentration gradient and hydrogen ions diffuses out of matrix space through ATP synthase causing the production of ATP.

          3 H are enough to pass through ATP synthase for the phosphorylation of ADP to produce ATP. 1 H or 25% of energy yielded from electron transfer is required to exchange the matrix ATP with the ADP in intermembrane space by adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT). This process provides continuous supply of ADP to mitochodaria and ATP which is exported to cytosol is utilized by cell to perform various functions. There will be no ATP production in mitochondria without ADP. So 4 H are required for 1 ATP production.

1 H for importing ADP to mtichodaria + 3 H for phosphorylation of ADP to ATP

What is used to break the bonds of nodules??
olga_2 [115]
<span> </span><span>Bean roots will have no nodules if there are no compatible Rhizobium bacteria in the soil. The nodule is a symbiotic relationship between the plant and the bacteria. Nitrogen fixing root nodules are pinkish in color. Green root nodules indicate actively reproducing bacteria that are not fixing nitrogen. The number of nodules depends on the amount of innoculant (Rhizobium) available in the soil. Look at the photos and make an estimate like x nodules per y linear inches of root. Hope this helps.

The edible part of the radish root functions as a food storage organ. The string parts of the radish root function as normal roots absorbing water and dissolved nutrients. Bean roots have no modifications for food storage. Radish roots don't have nodules. The radish root is a "tap root". The bean root is a "fiberous root" 

Beans don't grown faster than radishes because of the root nodules. Bean seeds are large. Radish seeds are small. The energy stored in the bean cotyledons helps the seedling get a fast start. The radish gets a slower start from less stored energy.</span>
