aerobic and anaerobic glucose degeneration in a cell

... to low concentration we can think of the proton gradient as having high potential energy. The protein that utilizes this energy is called ATP Synthase and uses the proton motive force to drive the production of ATP, analagous to hydroelectric turbine that makes use of potential energy in water. ...

... environmental conditions are favorable includes DNA, RNA, to increasingly complex designs where tubulin protein based crystal designs include ATP synthase and flagellum motors. All of these are made of molecules that like magnets attract to each other then connect together only one way, resulting ...

Electrons role in Cellular Respiration

They reduce oxygen to water with help from protons; the protons going to water maintains the gradient so they keep flowing through ATP Synthase. That's why we need oxygen. Besides providing the energy to move protons, they don't do much else.

help please. pH in mitochondrion

Does it mean that With the lower pH, the function of ATP synthase would increase, and protons will be driven back to the matrix, so there will be more H+ in the matrix would therefore become acidic and there would be more positive charge in the matrix ...

help please. pH in mitochondrion

Seeing as pH is measured by the concentration of H+, and ATP Synthase's function requires protons to move down their gradient, I'd say that increasing pH would lower the function of ATP Synthase (since it's more basic there are less protons) and the function ...
