Explanation:
the Krebs cycle occurs on the mitochondrial matrix and generates a pool of chemical energy from the oxidation of pyruvate, the end product of glycolysis. pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria and loses carbon dioxide to form acetyl-CoA, a 2-carbon molecule
Mutations Are the Raw Materials of Evolution. A mutation is a change in the sequence of an organism's DNA. What causes a mutation? Mutations can be caused by high-energy sources such as radiation or by chemicals in the environment
The energy for ATP synthesis comes from organic molecules (such as carbohydrates), or from sunlight, or from inorganic electron donors. We can classify organisms according to their source of energy and organic carbon:
<span><span>heterotrophs – get energy and organic carbon from metabolism of pre-existing organic compounds (food)</span><span>photoautotrophs – use energy from sunlight to make ATP and their own organic carbon compounds from carbon dioxide chemoautotrophs</span><span> – use energy from inorganic chemicals to make ATP and their own organic carbon compounds from carbon dioxide</span></span>
Metabolic pathways carry out reactions that capture energy from these various sources (organic compounds, sunlight or chemicals) and couple them to synthesis of ATP from ADP.
