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 |
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 |
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
A multienzyme complex amongst the following would be:
1. | sucrase |
2. | |
3. | hexokinase |
4. | pyruvate dehydrogenase |
The processes that occur in the cytosol of a eukaryotic cell is/are:
I. glycolysis
II. fermentation
III. oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl CoA
1. | Only I | 2. | I and II only |
3. | I and III only | 4. | I, II, III and IV |
The corresponding yield of ATP from one molecule of is:
1. | 2 | 2. | 3 |
3. | 4 | 4. | 6 |
All the following will normally occur during the electron flow in ETS in mitochondria except:
1. NADH and are oxidized.
2. the pH of the matrix decreases.
3. the electrons lose free energy.
4. an electrochemical gradient is formed.
