For the following questions (4-6), make a diagram summarizing the main steps in cellular respiration (glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, Krebs cycle, electron transport chain, chemiosmosis, fermentation) indicating the inputs and outputs of each process. This diagram will help you answer the questions. Draw it in paper and upload a photo or scan, post it as an image embedded in the discussion post (use the image icon, https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-10700-4212190965
Based on the diagram you drew, answer the following questions: A) How much energy is harvested during glycolysis (use ATP and potential ATPs as metric)? B) When is the oxidation of the glucose molecule completed? How could you tell? C) What part/component of the glucose molecule is used in the electron transport chain? D) How does the electron transport chain contribute to ATP production?
Explain what would happen to ATP production in a mitochondrion that has “leaky membranes”, which would allow protons to diffuse through. B) Explain how the proton gradient contributes to ATP production.
