Compare the abundance of cristae in the mitochondria in Fig. 18.11b (677) with those in Fig. 20.21 (760). Is there a difference? What might this reflect in functional terms?
If isolated mitochondria are incubated with asource of electrons such as succinate, but without oxygen,electrons enter the respiratory chain, reducing each of theelectron carriers almost completely. When oxygen is thenintroduced, the carriers become oxidized at different rates(Figure Q14–1). How does this result allow you to order the electron carriers in the respiratory chain? What is theirorder?
You are isolating mitochondria from insect cells and incubating in a test tube with 0.005 M FADH2, 0.05 M ADP and 0.05 M Pi. Assuming, these 3 can enter mitochondria at no cost,no glucose/products of glucose metabolism remain in the isolated mitochondria, and oxygen is present.
Part 1) If all expected reactions go to completion, how much ATP is expected formed?
(0 M)(0.02 M) (0.03 M) (0.05 M) (0.1 M) (0.005 M) (0.01 M) (0.015 M)
Part 2) The ratio of FADH2/FAD at completion of all expected reactions would be?
(2) (>>2) (0) (1)
Part 3) After completion of all expected reactions, ratio of H ion concentration inside vs. outside the mitochondrial inner membrane should be?
