Definition
| converting energy in the chemical bonds of organic molecules to ATP |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
- ETC passes electrons from NADH and FADH2 to oxygen
- Oxygen captures electrons at the "bottom"
- Oxygen joins with hydrogen ions to form water.
- Energy from electrons in ETC is used to pump protons of the hydrogen atoms across the mitochondrial membrane
- The concentrate gradient of protons drives the synthesis of ATP by chemiosmosis.

|
Definition
- releases energy from organic molecules
- no Krebs cycle or ETC
- no oxygen
- the final electron acceptor is an organic molecule
- produces a small amt of ATP (from glycolysis)
