Module 3: BIOD 101/ BIOD101 (Latest 2025/ 2026 Update) Essential Biology I W/Lab | Questions & Answers| Grade A| 100% Correct (Verified Solutions)- Portage Learning QUESTION True or False: The electron transport chain is an anabolic pathway. Answer: False; the electron transport chain is catabolic pathway QUESTION How does the electron transport chain generate ATP? Answer: Notably, the ETC does not directly produce any ATP. However, establishing a proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane will lead to the production of ATP via ATP synthase QUESTION Explain the process of oxidative phosphorylation. Answer: Oxidative phosphorylation is the process of generating ATP via a two-step process that involves (1) the oxidation of the high-energy end products NADH and FADH2 from the CAC and (2) the phosphorylation and conversion of ADP into ATP QUESTION What role do electron carriers play in the electron transport chain and what are the 3 electron carriers of the chain? Answer: Electron carriers experience changes in electronegativity as they accept (reduced) and then donate (oxidized) electrons. Ubiquinone, cytochromes, and oxygen are the electron carriers of the electron transport chain QUESTION What is the role of ATP synthase in the electron transport chain? Answer: The ATP synthase is responsible for generating ATP through chemiosmosis. Chemiosmosis is an energy-coupling process which harnesses the energy that exists within the proton ion gradient and uses it to drive ATP synthesis QUESTION What are the two main forms of fermentation? Answer:
