Chemiosmosis Theory
Understanding the relationship of the chemiosmotic process in the cell's whole energy production is essential for any student. It allows him to understand how the cell creates and spend energy, in the form ATP (adenosine triphosphate) even after the end of the Citric Acid Cycle.
Accordingly, the chemiosmosis theory provides an apt explanation about this process. According to this theory, most of the ATPs produced through synthesis within respiring cells are produced by the difference in electrochemical gradient within the cell's mitochondria walls. This takes place in four different complexes.
In the first and second complexes of the ETC, the acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) oxidation leads to a process wherein both NADH and FADH2 are oxidized into smaller electron carriers. On the one hand, during the first complex, NADH is oxidized into NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) as the former donates a Hydrogen...
