aerobic and anaerobic glucose degeneration in a cell

... go to what is called the Electron Transport Chain (ETC) which makes use of the reduced state of these molecules to fuel the production of a proton gradient. During this process NADH and FADH2 donate electrons to ETC Complex 1 and 2. Complex 1 uses the electrons to pump hydrogen ions (protons) ...

Egg Yolk Coacervates & pH Imaging

... things get complicated is in explaining the movement. I think I see the pH indicator outside the vesicles changing color to what looks like ion or proton propulsion. Or it could be just that I have junk for a setup and am seeing something not actually there. In either case, I'm seeing these very ...
