Oxidative phosphorylation is the process by which ATP is synthesized in the mitochondria during aerobic respiration in the electron transport... View Article
During phosphorylation, phosphate is added to a compound mostly by ATP. Phosphorylation is an endergonic process. Energy is required to form an... View Article
No, fermentation does not produce or utilise oxygen. Instead, alcoholic fermentation produces carbon dioxide gas along with ethanol. Fermentation... View Article
The two pathways of fermentation are alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation, where pyruvate is converted to ethanol and lactic acid,... View Article
NADH is the reduced form of NAD+. They are involved in various metabolic steps including cellular respiration. Also Check: Where Does the... View Article
NADH dehydrogenase is the first enzyme complex of the electron transport chain in the mitochondria. It converts NADH, the reduced form of... View Article
FAD acts as an enzyme cofactor. It is a coenzyme, which is involved in various redox reactions of metabolism, e.g. Citric acid cycle. Also... View Article
NADPH and NADH are coenzymes, which take part in various metabolic processes. NADPH contains an extra phosphate group. NADH is involved in... View Article
Succinate dehydrogenase is also known as the complex II of the electron transport system. It is also called succinate-coenzyme Q reductase (SQR).... View Article
Succinate dehydrogenase belongs to the class of oxidoreductase enzymes. One substrate is oxidised and another gets reduced in the reaction. It... View Article
NADH is a dinucleotide containing adenine and nicotinamide bases. The two nucleotides are joined through 5' phosphate groups. It is a coenzyme... View Article
2 NADH molecules are produced in the glycolysis, when 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde (PGAL) is oxidised to 1, 3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPGA). NAD+ is... View Article
Succinate dehydrogenase plays a key role in aerobic respiration. Succinate dehydrogenase is involved in the Krebs cycle as well as in the... View Article
Succinate dehydrogenase catalyses the conversion of succinate to fumarate in the TCA cycle and also is a part of the electron transport chain. It... View Article
NAD+ is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and FAD+ is flavin adenine dinucleotide. These are cofactors and are involved in various metabolic... View Article
After complex II, electrons are passed to ubiquinone and then to complex III, i.e. cytochrome bc1. Also Check: Where Does the Krebs Cycle... View Article
Endosmosis occurs when a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution. Water enters the cell causing it to get turgid. As a result of the entrance of... View Article
Different ions from soil involve in active transportation into the vascular tissues found in roots. Water follows their potential gradient thus... View Article
The transpiration process causes the pulling of water upwards with the aid of adhesion and cohesion attributes properties of molecules of water.... View Article
