Why is the formation of ATP by ATP synthase referred to as oxidative phosphorylation?
A. A phosphate is transferred from oxygen to ADP to form ATP
B. Oxygen provides the mechanical energy that is used to create ATP from ADP
C. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, which creates the proton gradient necessary to power ATP synthase
D. ADP combines with oxygen to form ATP
How is the energy used to make ATP via the electron transport chain generated?
a. The energy from electrons bound to reduced coenzymes is used to create a steep electrochemical gradient.
b. Electrons bound to NADH are used to generate a H+ ion gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane.
c. Electrons bound to FADH2 are used to generate a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane.
d. Electrons bound to NADH are used to generate a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane.
e. All of these are correct.
How will the cell shift its metabolic processes in response to the level of pyruvate and in order to produce ATP?
A. It will shift from aerobic respiration to fermentation
B. It will shift from aerobic respiration to anaerobic respiration
C.It will continue with aerobic metabolism using oxygen in the cytosol to make ATP
D. It will shift from anaerobic respiration to fermentation
