Answer each of the following with the BEST answer. Value: 3 A molecule with an upaired electron, known as a can cause damage, also known as v , by stealing electrons from other molecules in the body. Vitamin C is an example of a powerful v that provides electrons to these molecules and reduces risk of such damage.

An image of the electron transport chain is shown below. Which of the following statements about the electron transport chain is true? Choose the best answer. Protein complex of electron carriers H+ NADH (carrying electrons from food) Copyright © 2018 Pearson Canada Inc. NAD+ H+ III FADH₂ FAD Cyt c IV 2 H+ + 1/2O₂ 1 Electron transport chain H+ H₂O All of the other options are correct. Electrons have higher free energy when present in ubiquinone (shown as Q) than they do when they are present in cytochrome c (shown as Cyt c). The transport of protons from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space occurs by facilitated diffusion. Complex I and cytochrome c (shown as Cyt c) are peripheral membrane proteins.
Explain from a chemical stand point why ATP has a high phosphoryl-transfer potential. Make sure to compare ATP with its hydrolysis products, ADP and inorganic phosphate.
A critical reaction in the production of energy to do work or drive chemical reactions in biological systems is the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate, ATP, to adenosine diphosphate, ADP, as described by the reaction ATP(aq)+H2O(l)⟶ADP(aq)+HPO2−4(aq)ATP(aq)+H2O(l)⟶ADP(aq)+HPO42−(aq) for which Δ?∘rxn=−30.5 kJ/molΔGrxn∘=−30.5 kJ/mol at 37.0 °C and pH 7.0. Calculate the value of Δ?rxnΔGrxn in a biological cell in which [ATP]=5.0 mM,[ATP]=5.0 mM, [ADP]=0.10 mM,[ADP]=0.10 mM, and [HPO2−4]=5.0 mM.[HPO42−]=5.0 mM. Δ?rxn=ΔGrxn= kJ/mol
