Across
- 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.
- 5. abbreviation for the Electron Transport Chain, which produces 32-34 ATP per glucose, as well as water as a byproduct.
- 7. Which mitochondrial membrane is the Electron Transport Chain located?
Down
- 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. The final electron acceptor which is happily reduced (because it’s very electronegative)
- 4. The _____ that are needed in the Electron Transport Chain come from the NADH and FADH2 (produced during Glycolysis, Intermediate Step, and Krebs Cycle)
- 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)
