For each of the following sentences, fill in the blanks with the best word or phrase selected from the list below. Not all words or phrases will be used; each word or phrase may be used more than once. ADP FADH2 H+ moderately protons ATP favorable higher NADH severely cytosol glucose lower NAD+ slightly electrons GTP matrix Pi unfavorable High-energy electrons are transferred through a series of molecules, and the energy released during these transfers is used to generate a gradient of , or . Because their concentration is outside than inside the mitochondria, the flow of , or , down the concentration gradient is energetically very and can thus be coupled to the production of ATP from ADP. Thus, oxidative phosphorylation refers to the oxidation of and molecules and the phosphorylation of . Without this process, the yield of ATP from each glucose molecule would be decreased.
