Question

Please Help! If someone could at least tell me what two processes are illustrated, I may be able to figure out the rest. Thanks!

2. (20 points) The following questions relate to the Figure below. a. What two processes are illustrated in the diagram? b. What are the objects labeled A. B, c and D that are embedded in the lipid bilayer? c. What are the subcellular compartments labeled in E and F that are separated by the lipid bilayer membra rane? d. What is labeled by G that is pumped across the lipid bilayer membrane by A. Cand D? e. What are the substances labeled H and I that are interconverted by J?

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

a).

The total diagram indicates Electron transport system, in which ATPs are synthesized.

One process is electron transport.

Second process is ATP synthesis.

b). The labeled objects, A, B, C, D are electron carrier complexes present in the electron transport system.

A: Complex I

B: Complex II

C: Complex III

D: Complex IV

c).

E: Intermembrane space

F: Mitochondria matrix

d). G: Protons

Protons are pumped from matrix to intermembrane space by electron carrier complexes during the transfer electrons from one carrier complex to other complex.

e).

H: ADP + iP

I: ATP

J: ATP synthase enzyme
