Which of these statements is incorrect?
1. Enzymes of TCA cycle are present in mitochondrial matrix.
2. Glycolysis occurs in cytosol.
3. Glycolysis operates as long as it is supplied with NAD that can pick up hydrogen atoms.
4. Oxidative phosphorylation takes place in outer mitochondrial membrane.
When an electron is shifted to a more electronegative atom, its potential energy:
1. | increases | 2. | decreases |
3. | remains same | 4. | can increase or decrease |
The correct sequence of electron flow during aerobic respiration would be:
1. food → Krebs cycle → ATP → NAD+
2. food → NADH → electron transport chain → oxygen
3. glucose → pyruvate → ATP → oxygen
4. glucose → ATP → electron transport chain → NADH
Electron is donated to the mitochondrial ETC at the lowest energy level by:
1. | Glucose | 2. | NADH |
3. | ATP | 4. | FADH2 |
When electron pass downhill in the ETC, the energy released is used to pump protons into:
1. matrix of mitochondria
2. cytosol
3. mitochondrial inner membrane
4. mitochondrial intermembrane space
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 |
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
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.
