Describe redox reactions involved in the three steps of aerobic cellular respiration under the following topics:
1. Description of the two coenzymes NAD and FAD and link them to each enzyme in glycolysis; pyruvate oxidation and citric acid cycle using the backpack analogy that I described in class. (20%)
2. Describe energy harvesting of the electrons and hydrogens carried by the coenzymes in the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis using the battery analogy I described in class. (20%)
3. Describe the steps of DNA replication in bacteria as shown in our slides emphasizing the need for the Okazaki fragments (20%)
4. Describe RNA transcription emphasizing the two strands of DNA and the orientation of mRNA (20%)
5. Describe mRNA translation emphasizing the role of ribosomes and tRNA for two amino acids (20%)
Explain in detail of the process of cellular respiration, including all the stages of cellular respiration (glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation) and explain the substrate and product of each pathway. And make a table of the products formed at the end of glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation (ATPs, NADHs, water, and carbon dioxide). Then discuss about oxidation-reduction of various molecules that are a part of these pathways.
for aerobic respiration, anaerobic respiration and fermentation, briefly explain How are they processes similar?
