ETC
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the purpose of ETC? | convert energy from electron pairs to a proton gradient (out of the matrix) |
| Waste product of ETC? | Water |
| Complex 1 job | move protons across membrane (inner to outer) |
| Complex 3 job | electrons are drained of energy and more protons moved across membrane |
| Complex 4 job | O2 is split in half, water is a product (O2 is final electron acceptor) |
| What type of electrons are in complex 1 only? | NADH electrons |
| what changes about the proteins as electrons move through them? | the shape |
| How many protons are deposited on the other side of the membrane? | 4 |
| Q and cytochrome C job | shuttle electrons from one complex to the next |
