Question
Chapter 8.3, Problem 20CYP
Summary Introduction
To discuss:
Why does the total of ATPs generated differ between bacteria and eukaryotes.
Introduction:
Carriers in the electron transport chain like NADH coenzyme Q reductase etc accepts electrons from the Krebs cycle electron carrier nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), and passes them to coenzyme Q (ubiquinone) which also receives electrons from complex II (succinate dehydrogenase ). Depending upon the types and stages involved in the electron transport chain by these carriers, there is a difference in the consumption of ATP between prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
