Atp

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
how get atp from etc.
  1. o2
  2. co2
  3. h2o


in terminal step of oxidative phosphorylayation,

at complex 4: Cytochrome oxidase utilizes electrons transferred in the etc to synthesize water using half molecular oxygen( from respiration).
At complex 5: The protons tha create a proton gradient outside in the cytosol of mitochondria reenter the matrix here at complex 5 atp synthase. The energy of proton is thus utilisized to convert... Adp+p---->atp.

This is oxidative phosphorylation where oxidation( electrons+1/2o2---->h2o) n phosphorylation(adp +p---> atp) are clubed to release atp
