The gain of electrons is called _______. Reduction
The uneven distribution of ______ drives the formation of ATP in the ETC. H+ (Hydrogen ions)
In a reversible reaction, if there is more product, which way will the reaction proceed? Toward the production of Reactant.
How many ATP's are produced in both fermentation pathways? 2 ATP only
The loss of electrons is known as _______. Oxidation
How many ATP's are obtained per NADH in the ETC? 3
The type of allosteric control whereby product feeds back allosterically to turn off the enzyme. Feedback Inhibition
