    patients lose weight. This unsafe method was abandoned after a few patients died. DNP uncouples the chemiosmotic machinery by making the lipid bilayer of the inner mitochondrial membrane leaky to H+. Explain how this could cause weight loss. In chemiosmosis‚ NADH are passed along the electron transport chain‚ with energy used to pump protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane. As the protons are transferred across‚ a proton gradient is created. These protons can come back across the membrane

    Chemiosmosis. Chemiosmosis‚ by definition‚ is the diffusion of ions through a partially/selectively permeable membrane (down an electrochemical gradient). It is specifically refers to the flow of protons through the inner mitochondrial membrane. The main theory behind chemiosmosis is call Chemiosmosis theory‚ and was developed by Peter Mitchel in 1961. Here is a brief outline of the theory (now pretty much accepted as fact): Throughout respiration carrier molecules (NAD and FAD) are produced‚

    Benjamin Tiger1/16/12 Cellular Respiration Questions 1. Aerobic pathways require oxygen‚ while anaerobic pathways don’t. Anaerobic pathways only require the process of glycolysis to produce energy. Anaerobic pathways are found outside the mitochondria within the cytoplasm of the cell‚ with a low efficiency of 4%. These pathways require glucose‚ ATP‚ adolase‚ fructokinase‚ dehydrogenase‚ and NAD+. Out of one glucose molecule‚ major products include two net ATP‚ two NADH‚ and two pyruvate

    molecules in the Calvin Cycle to create glucose. In respiration‚ the process of glycolysis uses energy (ATP) to break down glucose. ATP is used in order to make more energy to perform more respiration. The process of chemiosmosis in animal cells also uses energy transfers. In chemiosmosis‚ NADH “drops off” an H+ ion. NADH then becomes NAD+‚ which is recycled. The H+ ions are actively moved into the inner membrane compartment. The active movements of the ions use energy. The H+ ions then proceed to flow

    CHAPTER 7 LECTURE SLIDES Respiration • Organisms can be classified based on how they obtain energy: • Autotrophs – Able to produce their own organic molecules through photosynthesis • Heterotrophs – Live on organic compounds produced by other organisms • All organisms use cellular respiration to extract energy from organic molecules Cellular respiration • Digestion – enzymes breaking down large macromolecules into smaller ones. • Cellular respiration is a series of reactions

    Photophosphorylation Chlorophyll in photosystems I and II absorbs light‚ which triggers the release of high energy electrons (photoactivation) The electrons from photosystem II pass along a series of carriers (electron transport chain)‚ producing ATP via chemiosmosis The electrons from photosystem I reduce NADP+ to generate NADPH + H+ Electrons lost from photosystem I are replaced by electrons from photsystem II Electrons lost from photosystem II are replaced by electrons generated by the photolysis of water
