Get started for freeWhat is the primary difference between fermentation and anaerobic respiration?
Because they lose their mitochondria during development, red blood cells cannot perform aerobic respiration; however, they do perform glycolysis in the cytoplasm. Why do all cells need an energy source, and what would happen if glycolysis were blocked in a red blood cell?
Nearly all organisms on Earth carry out some form of glycolysis. How does this fact support or not support the assertion that glycolysis is one of the oldest metabolic pathways?
Dinitrophenol (DNP) is an "uncoupler" that makes the inner mitochondrial membrane "leaky" to protons. It was used until 1938 as a weight-loss drug. What effect would you expect DNP to have on the change in across the inner mitochondrial membrane? Why do you think this might be an effective weight-loss drug?
Chemiosmosis involves ________.
a. the movement of electrons across the cell membrane
b. the movement of hydrogen atoms across a mitochondrial membrane
c. the movement of hydrogen ions across a mitochondrial membrane
d. the movement of glucose through the cell membrane
