... complexes (more specifically, NDH-1 and NDH-2). One major difference between the two is the fact that NDH-1 is a coupling site (so pumps out protons while transferring electrons) while NDH-2 is not; will not pump out any protons. As a result of this, the NET ATP produced will be different. ...

... to the generation of ATP by the movement of hydrogen ions across a membrane during cellular respiration.It will diffuse from an area of high proton concentration to an area of lower proton concentration. This could be harnessed to make ATP. He likened this process to osmosis, the diffusion ...

... bit confused by the biological oxidation. It is performed by the release of hydrogen instead of addition oxygen, right? And hydrogen acts as a proton. So why is NAD reduced instead of oxidized when it becomes positive? And following this logic, in biological oxidation are reducers donors, and ...

... Nuclear decay changes the nuclide. There are atomic species for an element; these species we distinguish as “nuclides”. For example P-31 with 15 protons and 16 neutrons is the stable phosphorus nuclide, which is not radioactive. When the neutron number increases to 17 it becomes P-32 and its ...
