Respiration involves oxidation and reduction.

An organic compound (glucose) is oxidisedwhile ADP is reduced to ATP

In cell processes biochemical processesare coupled to the oxidation of ATP to ADP

8.1.2

Outline the process of glycolysis, including phosphorylation, lysis, oxidation and ATP formation.

Aerobic respiration, gives a higher yield of

ATP.

Energy

Time

There is an increase in

energyPhosphorylation uses 2 ATP to add 2 phosphate groups to glucose.

This makes the glucose molecule more unstable so it becomes easier to break bonds.

The phosphate groups also allow the hexose bisphosphate to bind more effectively with its enzyme.

Lysis

hexose diphosphate

triose phosphate

Triose phosphate or TP is an intermediate in many biochemical reactions.The phosphate groups help the TP to bind to its enzyme.

There are 2 TP molecules made from each glucose.

A total of 4 ATP molecules are made.

But, we used 2 during phosphorylation.

So, we have a net production of 2 ATP

8.1.3

Draw and label a diagram showing the structure of a mitochondrion as seen in electron micrographs.

8.1.6

Explain the relationship between the structure of the mitochondrion and its function.

Mitochondria

Site of aerobic respirationPyruvate is further

oxidised to release more ATP.

Only found in eukaryotic cells.

Cells that need a lot of energy will have many mitochondria ( liver cell) or can develop them under training (muscles cells).

Features of mitochondria

Surrounded by a double membrane.

Inner membrane folded to form 'cristae'. LSA for ATP production.

Space between the two membranes which is narrow creating a place to concentrate H+

The inner space is called the matrix.It contains the enzymes needed for

respiration.especially those of the Kreb’s cycle.

An example of compartmentalisation (isolation of substances needed for a particular function)

Mitochondria also contain some of their own DNA (mDNA). http://genome.wellcome.ac.uk/doc_WTD020876.html

(b) cristae provide surface area for oxidative phosphorylation;

inner membrane contains electron transport chains/ATP synthase (which

carry out oxidative phosphorylation);

outer membrane separates the mitochondrion from the rest of the cell;

mitochondrial DNA/ribosomes make (mitochondrial) proteins;

small volume intermembrane space allows for higher concentration

of protons;matrix has enzymes for the Krebs cycle; 3 max

This is a metabolic cycle.

Each step requires enzymes to reduce the activation energy.

The reactions take place in the mitochondrial matrix.

This reaction occurs within the matrix where each intermediate becomes the substrate for the next step.

Task

Reorder the sentences in the booklet to explain the process of chemiosmosis

(answers on the next page)

The inner membrane is folded into cristae andembedded in this membrane are proteinswhich form an electron transport chainReduced NAD+ and FAD are oxidised releasing electrons and

H+ ions.The electrons are passed along the chain while theH+ are pumped by the membrane proteins into the inner

membrane space.These H+ ions accumulate and their concentration increases.When they diffuse back to the matrix they pass through a membrane protein called ATP synthase.The flow of electrons through ATP synthase drives an enzyme reaction which converts ADP + Pi to ATP.

ATP synthase is an enzyme embedded in the cristae membrane.

H+create an electrochemical gradient (chemical potential energy).

The H+pass through a channel in the enzyme driving the motor.

The motor spins bringing together ADP and Pi to produce ATP
