NADH passes electrons into the electron transport chain. List the carriers that would receive the electrons, in the correct order.
What is the difference between homolactic and heterolactic fermentation routes?
Name any chemical compound that can be used as an initial electron donor by the chemolithotrophs.
ANSWER :
The correct order of carriers that would receive electrons, passed from NADH during electron transport chain (ETC) :-
Coenzyme Q (ubiquinone) Cytochrome bc1 complex Cytochrome c (Cyt c) Cytochrome c oxidase molecular oxygen (final electron acceptor).
In homolactic fermentation, the pyruvate reduced via pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme and produces lactic acid or lactate as end product while heterolactic fermentation occurs during phosphoketolase pathway, which produces CO2 and ethanol (C2H5OH) in addition to lactic acid.
Chemolithotrophs use various inorganic chemical compounds as initial electron donor e.g.- sulfide (H2S), ferrous iron (Fe++) etc.

Which of the following statements regarding electron transport is TRUE? a) Electrons passing along the electron transport chain move to successively lower energy states. b) Electron transport occurs only in eucaryotes. c) Only high-energy electrons from NADH can be used to drive the electron transport chain. d) Molecular oxygen is required as a donor of electrons to the electron transport chain. e) The proteins involved in electron transport couple oxidation to phosphorylation in much the same way that glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate...
What are the names of the four complexes in the electron transport chain? What molecules/electron carriers donate electrons to the complexes? What molecules carry the electrons between the complexes (e.g. from complex II to III)? The following are electrons carriers in the complexes: cytochromes a, a3, b, and c1, FAD, FMN. Assign them to the right complexes.

Select the correct flow of energy transfer during cellular respiration. A. NADHH gradient glucose → ATP B glucose → NADH H gradient ATP C. glucose H gradient → NADH ATP D. glucose ATPH gradient → NADH 19. If a muscle cell has low levels of oxygen, which...
1 point As you know all the intermediates in the electron transport chain receive electrons from one complex or clectron transporters, become reduced, and then transfer these electron to the next complex or transporter. What would you expect if you have a physiological condition where Oz is abundant, but NADH and FADHz are exhausted lots of oxygen but no NADH or FADH. O Complex and I will be reduced. Complex Ill and I will be oxidized O All of the...

igure 24.1: Oxidative Phosphorylation 24 Trace the flow of electrons through the electron transport chain (the yellow arrows) in Focus Figure 24.1. Arrange the following electron acceptors in the order in which they participate in electron transport, from left to right and without overlapping any labels View Available Hints) Reset Help NADH O PADH,
Overall electron flow in a cell using reverse electron transport Consider a cell that is using reverse electron transport to generate NADH and is not (for the moment) using the proton gradient for anything else. Assume the cell is not a phototroph (so electrons are not being recycled by light-driven pumping). Also assume that the proton gradient is produced solely by a Q-cycle like the one we've discussed, which pumps 2 protons per electron transferred. (This would imply that the...
27) Which one of the following best describes the electron transport chain? A) Electrons are passed from one carrier to another releasing a little energy at each B) Hydrogen atoms are added to CO2 to make an energy-rich compound. C) Electrons are pumped across a membrane by active transport. D) Glucose is broken down to a three-carbon compound 28) After completion of the citric acid cycle, most of the usable energy from the one molecule is in the form of...
