  1. 3. These _____ protons (H+, also known as cations) are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space using the energy released from the electronics moving down the ETC.
  2. 5. abbreviation for the Electron Transport Chain, which produces 32-34 ATP per glucose, as well as water as a byproduct.
  3. 7. Which mitochondrial membrane is the Electron Transport Chain located?
Down
  1. 1. The pumping of protons into the intermembrane space from the matrix creates an _____ gradient (high concentration of protons in the intermembrane space), which stores potential energy used to drive the production of ATP via ATP synthase (chemiosmosis).
  2. 2. The final electron acceptor which is happily reduced (because it’s very electronegative)
  3. 4. The _____ that are needed in the Electron Transport Chain come from the NADH and FADH2 (produced during Glycolysis, Intermediate Step, and Krebs Cycle)
  4. 6. This byproduct is produced when electrons finally combine with oxygen and protons (H+) at the end of the electron transport chain. (Oxygen + 2 electrons + 2 H+ = H2O)
