Document Summary
Release of energy to do the work of the cell. Stages: glycolysis (cytoplasm) breaking down of sugars carried out by nearly every cell in the world. Oxidation: loss of electrons/decrease in electron density. Carbon atoms are oxidized and oxygen atom in water is reduced. Energy must be carried by a molecule (usually atp) Electrons are carried with electron carriers (ex: nadh) 2 atp used during phase 1 and 4 atp made in phase 3 (gain of 2 atp) The space between the outer and inner membranes is the intermembrane space. The space inside the inner membrane is the mitochondrial matrix. Donation of electrons from nadh to become nad+, fadh2 becomes fad: nadh = complex 1, fadh2 = complex 2. Electron flow through the chain to the terminal electron acceptor oxygen. When electrons are donated to complex 1, a hydrogen is transported through complex 1 to the intermembrane space.
