FUework Chapter 03. Energy. Chemical Reactions, and Cellular R i Saved Required information 1 2 The mitochondrial electron transport system moves electrons from a donor molecule to a receptor molecule, which in the process drives a proton (H+) pump. In order to establish a proton gradient, the protons accumulate in Part 1 of 3 O the outer membrane the Intermembrane space 3.57 O the matrbx points O the cristae elook 3. How does the proton (H+) gradient created by the electron transport system actually cause the production of ATP? O In order for the protons to flow back Into the matrix of the mitochondrion, they must go through the ATP synthetase enzyme. and that flow provides the power to generate the ATP The retrograde flow through cytochrome b drives an ATP synthetase 4. As we know from the reading, energy Is conserved and can be converted from one form to another Chemical energy from the food we eat is converted into a form of energy that is used in all cellular activity That common form of energy is AMP ADP NADH ATP of 28 Next > Prev 1 23 Mc t ed Type here to search

Answer 1

2. b . intermembrane space

The accumulation of protons in the intermembrane space generates an electrochemical gradient or proton motive force

3. In order for the protons to flow back into the matrix of the mitochondrion, they must go through the ATP synthase enzyme, and that flow provides the power to generate the ATP.

4. ATP

ATP is the form of energy which is utilized by the body
