Chapter 8, Problem 13TYU

CONNECT How are the endergonic reactions of the first phase of glycolysis coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP, which is exergonic? How are the exergonic reactions of the second phase of glycolysis coupled to the endergonic synthesis of ATP and NADH?

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Solve the following problems using the basic assumptions:  1 NADH --> 2.5 ATP; 1 FADH2 --> 1.5 ATP NADH produced in glycolysis is transported to the mitochondria where the electron is transferred to FADH2. At the end of the total degradation of a pyruvate, how many ATPs will be produced by oxidative phosphorylation only?
Use drawings, flow charts, or a table to compare and contrast the energy inputs and outputs during each phase of aerobic respiration vs. fermentation.  Be sure to directly discuss inputs and outputs of BOTH processes. Include all phosphorylated compounds and high-energy electron carriers, and briefly EXPLAIN HOW these are produced at each stage of respiration. WHERE does each stage happen? Explain HOW energy from high energy electron carriers is converted to ATP during respiration in mitochondria or aerobic bacteria.
Explain how the mechanism of ATP generation in the chloroplast similar to that in the mitochondria? What molecule serves as the terminal e- acceptor in the electron transport system of aerobic respiration? (Or how is this acceptor different from the terminal e- acceptor of the electron transport system in the chloroplast?) Why does respiration rarely meet its theoretical maximum energy yield? (Hint: In class we identified three potential reasons. Sketch the "dumbbell" model of a plant with equal size leaf and root compartments. On the model identify the major environmental controllers of respiration rate in the leaf and What are the major environmental controls over respiration rate in the above and below ground compartment of a plant? On a graph of respiration rate (Y-axis) and time of day, 0 through 24 h (X-axis) sketch the diurnal time course of leaf respiration and root respiration.
