Takes place...
Definition
Along inner membrane and intramembranous space of mitochondria
Term
[Picture 1]
Definition
NADH & FADH2 drop off e- to proteins in electron transport chain
Term
[Picture 1]
Definition
H+ are dropped off in the matrix
Term
[Picture 2]
Definition
Energy from e- falling down the electron transport chain is used to pump H+ into intramembranous space. This sets up proton gradient
Term
[Picture 3]
Definition
H+ passed back to matrix through ATP synthase
Term
[Picture 3]
Definition
ATP synthase combines ADP + P --> ATP
Term
[Picture 4]
Definition
O picks up low energy e- that have gone through electron transport chain and 2H+ to make H2O
Term
Oxygen is....
Definition
Final electron acceptor (No O, no ATP production)
