Document Summary

Substrate level phosphorylation: atp generation from adp (pep pyruvate) Each member of the chain is reduced by the carrier that precedes it and oxidized by the carrier that follows it. Final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration is oxygen. In anaerobic respiration it can be nitrate, sulfate etc *glycolysis anaerobic (glucose to pyruvate; some atp) Goes through the krebs (tca) cycle (pyruvate to co2, generates nadh and fadh2 which are electron carriers in the etc). As electrons are passed down the respiratory chain, the energy released is used to pump h+ across the cm via atpase. This generates a gradient which drives the phosphorylation of adp + The cm is impermeable to h+ so atpase necessary for transport across membrane. Macromolecules like starch and cellulose are too large to be transported. So they are degraded by extracellular enzymes and converted to smaller more transportable units monomers, disaccharides, trisaccharides. Molecules move from high concentration to low concentration.
