ATP synthesis during oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria is directly driven by:
1. oxidation of glucose.
2. electron transport downhill in the ETC.
3. terminal transfer of electrons to oxygen.
4. chemiosmosis.
ATP synthase is located in the mitochondrial:
1. | matrix | 2. | electron transport chain |
3. | outer membrane | 4. | inner membrane |
Isolated inner membrane of mitochondria can carry out:
1. the citric acid cycle
2. oxidative phosphorylation
3. glycolysis and fermentation
4. reduction of
The number of oxygen molecules required each time a molecule of glucose is completely oxidized via aerobic respiration is:
1. | 1 | 2. | 2 |
3. | 6 | 4. | 12 |
Let us say there are 30 NADH and 12 in a mitochondrion. What is the maximum number of ATP generated if all dinucleotides are used in chemiosmosis?
1. | 42 | 2. | 84 |
3. | 114 | 4. | 142 |
Identify the incorrectly matched pair:
Component of ETC | Name | |
1. | Complex I | NADH dehydrogenase |
2. | Complex II | Succinate dehydrogenase |
3. | Complex III | Cytochrome b6f complex |
4. | Complex IV | Cytochrome c oxidase |
The correct chronological sequence of the stages of the glycolytic pathway is:
1. | glucose priming, cleavage and rearrangement, oxidation, ATP generation |
2. | cleavage and rearrangement, glucose priming, ATP generation, oxidation |
3. | glucose priming, oxidation, cleavage and rearrangement, ATP generation |
4. | ATP generation, oxidation, glucose priming, cleavage and rearrangement |
Chemiosmosis is coupled to energy storage by:
1. | NADH | 2. | ADP |
3. | cytochromes | 4. | ATP synthase |
Ubiquinone is:
1. a protein in the mitochondrial electron transport chain
2. a substrate for synthesis of FADH
3. a vitamin used as coenzyme in Krebs cycle
4. a small hydrophobic coenzyme
