Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The reason for the net ATP production being 2 less than the gross production during a β-oxidation process has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The total ATP molecules produced by the oxidation of a fatty acid molecule is the sum of all the ATP molecules produced from the

- O Macmillan Learning Incorrect Answer Choose all the true statements about oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation and the electron transport chain are called coupled reactions. Oxidative phosphorylation occurs in the matrix of the mitochondria. Oxidative phosphorylation is an aerobic process. The oxidation of NADH provides enough energy to produce two ATP molecules. The oxidation of FADH, provides enough energy to produce two ATP molecules. Macmillan Learning Feedback Sorry, that's incorrect. There are three correct answers. Determine the product of oxidative phosphorylation. Consider where this process gets the energy needed to run this reaction.arrow_forward15.7) Determine whether each of the following changes is an oxidation or reduction. a) gain of electrons reduction b) loss of electrons oxidation c) Fe²+ to Fe³+ oxidation d) NADH to NAD+ oxidation lost bond to hydrogen atom e) FAD to FADH₂ reduction gained bond to hydrogen atom f) CH4 to CO₂ oxidation gained bonds to oxygen atoms and lost bonds to hydrogen atoms g) NAD+ to NADH reduction gained bond to hydrogen atom EXPLANATION: A useful mnemonic to differentiate oxidation and reduction is the term "OILRIG" (Oxidation is the Loss of electrons; Reduction is the Gain of electrons). It is possible to identify redox reactions for inorganic compounds by inspecting the chemical equation and determining if electrons are transferred from one species to another. If the charge of an atom or ion in a reactant was increased (toward positive) in the conversion of reactants to products, an oxidation occurred. If the charge of an atom or ion in a reactant was decreased (toward negative) in the…arrow_forwardPlease correct answer and don't used hand raitingarrow_forward
