Cyanide is known to be an inhibitor of the electron transport chain in cellular respiration. It works by inhibiting one of the cytochrome enzymes (Cit C in the picture). So how do you cause the death of an individual? It explains from the cellular process that is affected and how this leads to the death of the individual.

- Give typed full explanation what is the pathway for beta oxidation? A-Farrow_forwarda. Cellular respiration is an energy releasing enzymatically controlled catabolic process which evolves a stepwise oxidative breakdown of organic substances inside living cells. Describe the steps involved in cellular respiration when oxygen is and is not available. In your answer, state the inputs and outputs of yeast cell respiration with and without oxygen. In the yeast respiration experiment, we saw that yeast were able to use sucrose (table sugar) for respiration, but not sucralose (the active ingredient in Splenda). b. b. Explain what these results indicate about how the specific structure of an enzyme affects its function. In your answer, make sure to include the term “active site.” c. c. Explain how you think the results may have differed if the fermentation tubes had been placed in a refrigerator (~4 degrees Celsius) over the duration of the experiment, instead of an incubator set to 40 degrees Celsius, and why. In the photosynthesis experiment with spinach,…arrow_forwardWhich of the following DOES NOT describe Cellular Respiration? * a. It provides cells with the energy they need to function. b. Cellular respiration is essential to both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells because this biochemical energy is produced to fuel many metabolic processes, such as biosynthesis, locomotion, and transportation of molecules across membranes c. Without the process of cellular respiration, there is no gaseous exchange and the cells, tissue and other organs die due to the lack of oxygen and by the accumulation of carbon dioxide within the cells and tissues. d. Cellular respiration is a type of passive cell transport. Molecules move from areas O of high concentration to areas of low concentration in order to decrease the concentration gradientarrow_forward
- ATP Synthase contains with in it one of the most conserved residues in a protein we know. Asp 61. This is the amino acid that carries the proton. a. Why would this residue be so highly conserved? What would happen if a mutation occurred that would change Asp to Ala? b. At the end of one spin of ATP synthase when the proton is in a position to leave to the intermembrane space the Asp comes into close contact with another very highly conserved residue Arg 210. Explain how this Arg residue could help the proton attached to Asp to leave. Hint think pKa Answer both parts with good explanationarrow_forwardThe complete catabolism of one molecule of C6H12O6 into carbon dioxide and water produces a larger amount of ATP in aerobic prokaryotes than it does in aerobic eukaryotes because aerobic prokaryotes: A. always produce ethanol rather than lactic acid as a byproduct B. generate more molecules of NADH during aerobic respiration C. have no transport costs to get NADH into mitochondria D. generate more molecules of FADH2 during aerobic respiration E. are able to use pyruvate as a substrate for fermentationarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about cellular respiration is TRUE in eukaryotes? A. For every molecule of NADH oxidized in the electron transport chain, 1 molecule of ATP is produced. B. ATP synthase harnesses the flow of protons (hydrogen ions = H+) from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space to produce ATP. C. ATP synthase transduces the flow of protons (hydrogen ions = H+) from the intermembrane space to the mitochondrial matrix into kinetic (mechanical) energy D. H2O is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, being oxidized to O2 and H+. E. All of the above are truearrow_forward

A. In cellular respiration the ETC transfers electrons via redox reactions whereas in photosynthesis the ETC transfers electrons using light. B. In cellular respiration the ETC creates a proton gradient with the higher concentration on the outer side of the inner membrane whereas in photosynthesis the ETC creates a proton gradient with the higher concentration on the inner side of the thylakoid membrane. C. In cellular respiration the ETC gradient is used to power ATP production by oxidative phosphorylation whereas in photosynthesis the ETC gradient is used to power ATP production by substrate level phosphorylation.arrow_forwardMany molecules move across membranes by diffusion. Which of the following statements related to membrane diffusion is correct? A. Although they require ATP, ABC transporters move molecules by diffusion. B. For large molecules, facilitated diffusion is often slower than simple diffusion. C. To support photosynthesis, CO2 gets into the Chlamy chloroplast through facilitated diffusion. D. Diffusion is an exergonic (-ΔG) process.arrow_forwardGive typed full explanation Which of the following results in the production of ATP from ADP? a. photophosphorylation b. substrate-level phosphorylation c. oxidative phosphorylation d. all are correctarrow_forward
- Cellular respiration is a very challenging topic to learn. Instead of asking you many detailed questions about the process, I would rather you show me that you understand the big picture. Why is it necessary for all organisms to do cellular respiration? It doesn't matter if you are a top tier consumer like you and I or a simple decomposing yeast, all organisms must do some sort of cellular respiration. You can answer this by describing the overall purpose and outcome of cellular respiration. You are not required to get into minute details. I DELLarrow_forwardWhich statement about metabolic pathways is false? OA. A specific enzyme catalyzes each transformational step. B. Chemical transformations occur in a series of separate chemical reactions. O C. Inhibitors that target some key enzymes in a pathway can slow the rate of reaction. D. Activators that target some key enzymes in a pathway can increase the rate of reaction. E. In prokaryotes, reactions in a pathway are located in multiple compartments.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements are correct? Explain your answers.A. Many, but not all, electron-transfer reactions involve metal ions.B. The electron-transport chain generates an electrical potential across the membrane because it moves electrons from the intermembrane space into the matrix.C. The electrochemical proton gradient consists of two components: a pH difference and an electrical potential.D. Ubiquinone and cytochrome c are both diffusible electron carriers.E. Plants have chloroplasts and therefore can live without mitochondria.arrow_forward
