aerobic and anaerobic glucose degeneration in a cell

... these "spent" electrons from Complex 1 and 2 across the cristae membrane to Complex 3 which again uses them to create a proton gradient. Cytochrome c shuffles these "spent" electrons to Complex 4 which uses them to create a proton gradient but also dumps these electrons onto ...

pI's of 2 proteins

... and collected a sample and then used a pH and of 9 and collected sample 2. So now I have to comment on the charge properties and likely pI's of (cytochrome C and haemoglobin).. CM contains a negative charge right? So that means in order for those 2 proteins to bind to it they both proteins must ...

Electrons role in Cellular Respiration

... So the NADH + H+ and FADH + H+ drop of their electrons at the different I believe they are called proteins present in the ETC (NADH Dehydrogenase, Cytochrome Reductase, and Cytochrome Oxilase). Now I am somewhat lost. THe electrons help diffuse H+ up the proteins (I understand what the H+ does ...
