Q

T or F? ATP, NADH (high energy status) stimulates Krebs Cycle

A

False, inhibits not stimulate

22
Q

T or F? ETC is a series of electron carriers (protein complexes) located in the outer mitochondrial membrane

A

False, inner not outer

23
Q

As pairs of electrons are passed down the complexes, H+ are pumped into the intramembrane space resulting in an electrochemical gradient for H+ (proton motive force). Where did the electrons come from?

A

from NADH and FADH2

24
Q

As H+ flows back down its electrochemical proton gradient, passing through a special H+ channel (ATPase synthase) back into the _______, ATP is synthesized

A

Matrix

25
Q

NADH averages how many ATP?

A

2.5

26
Q

FADH2 averages how many ATP?

A

1.5

27
Q

Which of the 5 complexes pump protons into the innermembrane space?

A

1, 3, and 5

28
Q

Complex I: NADH dehydrogenase complex, NADH is _______ to NAD+.

A

Oxidized

29
Q

What enzyme shuttles electrons from complex I to complex III?

A

Coenzyme Q

30
Q

Complex II: (Succinate dehydrogenase-ubiquinone oxidoreductase) Accepts electrons from _____ and passes them to _____.

A

FADH2; Coenzyme Q

31
Q

T or F? Complex III: (Cytochrome b-c1 complex) passes the electrons to Complex IV.

A

False, to Cytochrome C then to to Complex IV

32
Q

Complex IV: Cytochrome c oxidase complex (COX), where do the electrons go from here?

A

Oxygen picks up the electron and forms H2O with 2H+

33
Q

_______ is the final electron acceptor.

A

Oxygen

34
Q

T or F? 2H+ 2e- + ½ O2 → H2O

A

True

35
Q

The enzymatic phosphorylation of ADP to ATP coupled to electron transfer from a substrate to molecular oxygen is called ___ ____

A

oxidative phosphorylation

36
Q

T or F? Complex V: (ATP synthase); Forms a hydrophilic tunnel through the inner mitochondrial membrane allowing H+ to move into the matrix following their electrochemical gradient (aka mitochondrial membrane potential, proton motive force)

A

True

37
Q

As H+ passes through the complex, ______ force is converted into ______ _______ energy: ADP + Pi→ATP

A

mechanical; chemical bond

38
Q

T or F? NADH → 10 H+ pumped out and 4 H+ required to make 1 ATP via ATP synthase = 2.5 ATP

A

True

39
Q

T or F? FADH2 → 6 H+ pumped out and 4 H+ required to make 1 ATP via ATP synthase = 1.5 ATP

A

True

40
Q

Why does FADH2 make less ATP than NADH?

A

FADH2 passes its electrons to Complex II, electrons only passes through 2 pumps instead of 3.

41
Q

A

False, stimulates

42
Q

T or F? Regulation of ETC: ATP (high energy status) inhibits ETC

A

True

43
Q

A

No

44
Q

How many protons does Complex 1 and 3 pump each?

A

4

45
Q

How many protons does Complex 4 pump?

A

2

46
Q

How many protons does it take to pass through complex 5 produce 1 ATP

A

4

47
Q

Cyanide inhibits which complex?

A

Complex 3

48
Q

How does shutting down the ETC shut down the Krebs Cycle?

A

NAD+ and FAD cannot be recycled and a build-up of NADH inhibits the Kreb Cycle.
