CELL RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The 6 water molecules and ATP from the electron transport reaction in cellular respiration are created in the ____ of the mitochondria?
A
Stroma
B
Matrix
C
Inner membrane
D
Thylakoid
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During the process of aerobic respiration, there are six molecules of water released with the oxidation of glucose .

Detailed explanation-2: -Making ATP ATP synthase acts as a channel protein, helping the hydrogen ions cross the membrane. It also acts as an enzyme, forming ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. After passing through the electron-transport chain, the “spent” electrons combine with oxygen to formwater.

Detailed explanation-3: -A Chemiosmotic Process Converts Oxidation Energy into ATP These electrons, carried by NADH and FADH2, are then combined with O2 by means of the respiratory chain embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Detailed explanation-4: -The third and final stage of cellular respiration, called electron transport, takes place on the inner membrane of the mitochondrion. Electrons are transported from molecule to molecule down an electron-transport chain.
