Answer:
Each FADH2 yields about 1.5 ATP via oxidative phosphorylation.
Explanation:
Most of the ATP molecules are produced by oxidative phosphorylation, not by substrate-level phosphorylation. During glycolysis, 2 ATP molecules per glucose are produced by substrate-level phosphorylation. Similarly, Kreb's cycle also yields 2 ATP per glucose by substrate-level phosphorylation.
For each pair of electrons transferred to O2 from FADH2 via electron transport chain, 4 and 2 protons are pumped from matrix towards the intermembrane space by complex III and complex IV respectively. It generates the proton concentration gradient required to drive the synthesis of 1.5 ATP molecules. Since oxidation of FADH2 is coupled to the phosphorylation of ADP to form ATP, the process is called oxidative phosphorylation.
QUESTION:-
What is the maximum number of electrons that can be placed in the first shell/energy level?
A. 1
B. 8
C. 2
D. 18
Answer:
C. 2
The first shell, closest to the nucleus and with the lowest-energy electrons, is shell 1. This first shell has only one subshell (labeled 1s) and can hold a maximum of 2 electrons
Answer:
Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. ... Anaerobic respiration also produces energy and uses glucose, but it produces less energy and does not require oxygen.
