Isocitrate + NAD+ -> a-ketoglutarate + CO2 + H2

The amount of ATP produced from one molecule of glucose will decrease because NADH is no longer produced in the isocitrate dehydrogenase reaction. Without generation of this high energy electron carrier there will be less electrons from one molecule of glucose that are transferred to and through the electron transport chain. So there will be less protons (H+ ions) pumped into the intermembrane space. So there will be less of a H+ ion gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane to drive the synthesis of ATP by ATP synthase.

Describe how home heating and cooling has changed over time, and how it has remained the same.
Delicious77 [7]
Heating is still done largely by burning fuels, like it has been in the past, although people now have central heating to circulate the warm air throughout the house. Some people use electric heaters and people used to use cool water to cool their houses. Now people use electric air conditioners.
