respiration

  • uses an external electron acceptor (O2)

  • flow of electrons through or within a membrane, from reduced coenzymes to an external electron acceptor usually accompanied by the generation of ATP

  • coenzymes such as FAD and CoQ are involved

2
New cards

cristae

  • foldings of the inner membrane

  • increase SA

  • intracristal spaces

  • cells with high metabolic activity seem to have more cristae in their mitochondria

New cards

aerobic respiration

  • pyruvate is oxidized completely

  • up to 38 ATP molecules produced/glocuse

  • NADH is continuously reoxidized
