thanks to the formation of proton gradient. The electron transporters Throughout the respiratory chain, electrons from NADH and FADH2 will lose energy that will be used to form the proton electrochemical gradient between the intermem-brane space and Mitochondrial matrix. The energy-rich electrons thus recovered will be transported successively via the various complexes: Complex 1 :NADH dehygrogenase -Recover electrons from NADH and allowing the transport of 4 protons of the mito-chondrial…

1. Matter can be found everywhere and anywhere. It is anything that takes up space and consists of mass. 2. An element is a substance that includes atoms. These atoms all have the same amount of protons. 3. A compound is formed when two or more separate elements combine and mix together. An example is pure table salt. Table salt is created by two elements which are sodium and chlorine. Sodium and chlorine combine and mix together until the end result which is the table salt. 4. Atoms are…

and then they recombine along the a-plane in order to allow for the movement of one proton. In Phase II, the “V” shaped crystal structure allows for independent movement of protons, hereby causing superprotonic conductivity to take place. This is only made possible by the re-orientation of the hydrogen bonds. The protons movement is possible through the breaking and reformation of hydrogen bonds, as the protons are diffused through this crystal structure. Hence, as a result, we can…

Atoms are made up of particles called neutrons, protons and electrons. Electrons have a negative electrical charge, protons have a positive electrical charge, and neutrons have no electrical charge. The neutrons and protons group together in the middle part of the atom, which is called the nucleus. An individual atom atoms will have at least as many neutrons as protons and it will have the same amount of electrons and protons. Atoms have a large amount of energy which holds their nuclei together…

Looking at the period table, there are many elements, but Magnesium is the one needed for or enzymes to function properly. In addition to this, Magnesium has other roles to play in one’s daily life. In fact, the element is the eighth most prominent in the earth’s crust, but it isn’t a free metal. Thankfully, there are numerous minerals in Magnesium. Two of the most common minerals are dolomite and magnesite. These minerals and the element itself can be discovered in sea water. Saying this, come…

The chemical equations of both reactions are the reverse of each other. In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water work together with the protein complexes present in the chloroplast and with the aid of the energy coming from the sun to yield glucose and oxygen. Meanwhile, in cellular respiration, glucose is broken down with the aid of oxygen and enzymes present in the mitochondria into carbon dioxide and water, which are the starters of photosynthesis, and produces energy in the form of ATP.…

unstable element has a certain number of protons and neutrons that make up the nucleus. If an element is stable, there will be a proportionate amount of neutrons to protons, however, when it comes to unstable elements there is a disproportionate amount of neutrons to protons. As Iodine-131 is radioactive, when it breaks down a new element is created, Xenon-131. This occurs because Iodine-131 is unstable which then causes the neutrons to change into either protons and electrons, therefore…

Cancer, Lysosomes, and Treatment Cancer is one of the most leading causes of death across the world. Several therapies exist to fight cancer. They include surgery, radiation therapy, stem cell transplant, targeted therapy, hormone therapy, and immunotherapy. One common therapy many chose is chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is cancer treatment using one or more anti-cancer medications that are given as a standardized regimen. There are several types of chemotherapy medications. Alkylating agents attack…

therapy that treats various kinds of cancer from ovarian to lung cancer. Paclitaxel works by promoting the polymerization of microtubules and prevents depolymerization to have a cytotoxic affect on cells (DeAngelis LM, et al., 1995). Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor used clinically for gastritis that inhibits V-ATPase and increases the cytotoxicity of chemotherapies such as paclitaxel (Bae DS, et al., 2015). The metastasis of cancerous cells is known to be the leading cause of mortality in…
