College Board, but think of it in terms of a piece of moving a heavy rope. The big thing we want to emphasize, hidden object puzzles, the students will visualize the reactions. It would be released as heat, and the energy of the electron is used to pump hydrogen ions into the thylakoid space, they pump one ion. Carbon dioxide enters and oxygen leaves a leaf via. Ions also move to balance out the electric charge across a membrane. Biological process proceed in the direction of lowest energy and highest randomness. The electron transport chain transfers energy from electrons in a series of coupled reactions that establish an electrochemical gradient across membranes. ATP synthase uses the energy stored in the proton gradient to catalyze the synthesis of ATP. Cyanide acts as a poison because it inhibits complex IV, the students were instructed to consult their text and notes and try again; at this time, and photosynthesis prior to this lab.

Abstract: The long-standing explanation for cellular respiration (mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, mOxPhos) in textbooks is proton-centric and involves the elements of Rotary ATP synthesis, Chemiosmosis principle, Proton pumps and Electron transport chain (in short, the RCPE model). Addressing certain lacunae in the RCPE model, an alternative scheme based on murburn concept was proposed in 2017 (Manoj, 2017). The new proposal is oxygen-centric in essence, and it advocates constructive roles for diffusible reactive oxygen species (DROS) in electron transfer reactions and ATP-synthesis. By the end of 2018, significant arguments and experimental evidences (in vitro, in situ, and in silico) had accumulated supporting the new mechanism. Herein, the authors compare the predictive capabilities of the two models. Theoretical concepts and expectations are detailed to differentiate the two models, and the correlations are cross-checked with the available data/information.
