Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The ΔG and the potential difference of redox that is required when the ATP synthesis occurs.

Introduction:

The enzyme of ATP synthase produces the ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which the molecule that helps in storing the energy. In all organisms this ATP is used as the energy currency of cells.

Uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria also uncouple photoelectron transport and ATP synthesis in chloroplasts. Give an explanation for this observation
Enzymes normally enhance the rates of biochemical reactions by preferentially binding and stabilizing the transition states rather than either the substrates or the products of a reaction. The F|-subunit of ATP synthase does not fit this norm so well as tight binding to ATP rather than a transition state is employed to make ATP. Explain the binding-change model of the mechanism of ATP-synthase. How and why is the proton-motive force used in the reaction cycle of ATP synthase?
Assuming a eukaryotic cell has complete metabolic ability to fully oxidize glucose(including all metabolic pathways ane necessary organelles).At biochemical level explain the consequence of low oxygen content on all aspects of energy production associated with glucose catabolism.
