During aerobic respiration, H2O is formed. Where does the oxygen atom for the formation of the water come from

Molecular oxygen (O2)

In chemiosmosis, what is the most direct source of energy that is used to convert ADP to Pi to ATP

Energy released from movement of protons through ATP synthase, down their electrochemical gradient

Energy released by the ETC is used to pump H+ into which location in eukaryotic cells

Mitochondrial intermembrane space

In liver cells, the inner mitochondrial membranes are about five times the area of mitochondrial membranes. What purpose must this serve

It increases the surface for oxidative phosphorylation

You have a friend who lost abut 15 pounds of fat on a regimen of strict diet. How did the fat leave his body

It was released as CO2 and H2O

Which of the following normally occurs regardless of whether or not oxygen is present

Glycolysis

Why is glycolysis consider to be one of the first metabolic pathways to have evolved

It does not involve organelles or specialized structures, does not require oxygen, and is present in most organisms

News biospheres, applied like a temporary tattoo to the skin, can alert serious athletes that they are abut to hit the wall and find it difficult to continue exercising. These biosensors monitor lactate, a form of lactic acid, released in sweat during str

During anaerobic respiration, lactate levels increase when muscles cells need more energy, however scales cells eventually fatigue, this athletes should modify the activities to increase aerobic respiration
