Questions

1. Identify where on a mitochondrion the ETC and oxidative phosphorylation occur.

2. Identify sites of high and low proton concentration in the mitochondrion.

3. List the major components of the ETC and where they are located in the mitochondrion.

4. Describe how the ETC feeds into oxidative phosphorylation.

5. Describe how the proton motive force is generated, and how it drives oxidative phosphorylation.

6. Calculate net theoretical ATP yield based on the number of protons pumped by NADH and FADH2 entering the ETC.

7. Determine the effects of manipulating electron carriers, ETC components, membrane permeability, and/or ATP synthase activity on acidity, proton concentration, and ATP yield.

8. Differentiate the impacts of an ETC inhibitor, ATP synthase inhibitor, and uncoupled.

9. Explain why uncouplers can be adaptive in certain animal species.

10. Describe the flow of electrons within the ETC.

11. Describe how ATP synthase leverages the proton motive force to power ATP synthesis.
