Electron Transport Hydrogen Ions
778 wordsElectron transport is the last phase and most important phase of cell respiration. It accounts for most of the ATP made in cell respiration. Cell respiration makes a total of thirty eight Atp's, two from Glycolysis, two from the Krebs cycle and thirty four from electron transports. Electron transport takes place after Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle make their ATP through substrate level Phosphorylation while electron transport makes its ATP through oxidative phosp...

2 H 2 O Creatine Phosphate
1,714 wordsWith the aid of diagrams provide a summary of how the following energy systems work. Energy systems; introduction Energy systems are cellular levels processes used to produce Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) figure 1. This is an adenosine molecule linked to three high-energy phosphates that acts as an energy store for the cell. The energy is released when ATPase, an enzyme, reacts with ATP to produce ADP and Pi, e. g. ATP ADP + Pi There are three energy systems that do this; The Creatine Phosphate S...

Plasma Membrane Permeable Membrane
777 wordsThe plasma membrane is the boundary of life; this selectively permeable membrane allows the cell to maintain a unique internal environment and to control the movement of materials into and out of the cell. The phospholipid bilayer (fluid music model) with specific membrane proteins accounts for he selective permeability of the membrane and passive and active transport mechanisms. Membrane phospholipids are amphipathic. Cell membranes are phospholipid bilayers with the hydrophobic hydrocarbon tai...

England Journal Young Girls
660 wordsI discovered that mitochondria evolved from the chloroplast (Audersirk p. 369). The endosymbotic hypothesis championed most force full by Lynn Margulis of the University of Massachusetts, propose that cells acquired the precursors of mitochondria and chloroplast by engulfing certain types of bacteria. This happens by the aerobe bacteria that absorbs those molecules and used energy oxygen to complete their metabolism. By gaining a high range of energy, using large food resources, great amount of ...

Breast Cancer Ten Minute
1,507 wordsA lot of work has been done recently to establish a Human Genome Model, a genetic map, physical map and comparative DNA sequence of human chromosomes. This work with the Human Genome Model cannot be achieved without a small part upon the parallel implementation of gene mapping projects in other species. One of these other species which has been associated with the human recently has been the feline (1). With exception to the primates, of the non primate mammalian species with developing comparat...

Permeable Membrane Semi Permeable
781 wordsOsmosis is the flow of water through a semi permeable membrane that blocks the transport of salts or other solutes through it. It is also defined as the net movement of water from an area of high concentration to a region of low concentration. Osmosis is a fundamental effect in all biological systems. When two water volumes are separated by a semi permeable membrane water will flow from the side of low solute concentration to the side of high solute concentration. If external pressure is applied...

Diabetes Mellitus Type Ii
1,088 wordsScientific Rationale for Selection of the Target A. Characterization of Target Diabetes Mellitus is a heterogeneous group of metabolic diseases characterized by the presence of excessive amounts of glucose and glucagon in the blood of diabetic patients. The most frequently cited reason for Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is either a lack of insulin secretion (DM Type I) and / or , more commonly, the resistance to insulin in the peripheral tissues, particularly muscle and adipose tissue (DM type II). Henc...

N P Active Site
952 wordsGlycolysis Reaction 1 Glucose -> Glucose 6 -phosphate (G- 6 -P) The first stage of glycolysis starts from reaction of phosphorylation. Phosphorylation is catalyzed by hexokinase. It is an endothermic ATP dependent reaction and requires energy from ATP. ATP is hydrolyzed to ADP and phosphate. In such a way, glucose receives phosphate and energy. To sum up, the reaction is as follows: glucose + ATP a glucose- 6 -phosphate + ADP Reaction 2: Glucose 6 -phosphate (G- 6 -P) -> F- 6 -P (Fructose 6 -pho...

Ribosomal Rna Hydrogen Ions
1,285 wordsOrigins of mitochondria and chloroplast Both mitochondria and chloroplast have an inner and outer membrane, each a phospholipid bilayer with a unique collection of embedded proteins. The inner membrane of the mitochondria is convoluted, with infolding's called crystal which gives it a greater surface are to enhance productivity of cellular respiration, it also encloses the mitochondrial matrix, and contains built in enzymes that make ATP. The inner membrane of the chloroplast encloses the grand ...
