oxidative phosphorylation

Cards (5)

    1. NADH and FADH are oxidised and deliver hydrogen atoms.
    A) FADH
    B) NADH
    C) hydrogen atoms
  • 2. The hydrogens are split into electrons and H+ ions 
    A) H+ ions and electrons
  • 3. The electrons are passed down carrier proteins in the membrane, the energy from the electron transport chain moves H+ ions into the intermembrane space against the concentration gradient 
    A) carrier protein
    B) H+ ions
    C) H+ ions
  • 4. At the final carrier protein oxygen collects the 2 electrons along with 2 H+ ions to make water
    A) final protein
    B) oxygen
    C) water
  • 5. The H+ moves back into the matrix via ATP synthase to combine ADP and Pi to make ATP
    A) H+ ions
    B) ATP synthase
    C) ADP + Pi
    D) ATP
