also, the triose phosphate produced by the phosphorylation of glycerol, wouldn't it enter glycolysis and not Krebs cycle?

Yes you're right - it would enter glycolysis!!!!! I'll pin this comment

Thank you so much for this video. My book complicates everything so much, this video was extremely easy to understand and I understand the topic really well right now thanks to you!

this is unbelievably helpful. i’m failing miserably at the moment. i really feel much better for my test this afternoon. thank you!

Why does the volume remain constant in the question at 25:28 ? Surely the same amount of oxygen wouldn't be taken up since one is aerobic and one is anaerobic?

@AlevelBiologyHelp

Hi! The mark scheme is quite confusing for this one, but what it's saying is that because the yeast is now respiring aerobically, the volume of oxygen taken up and the volume of carbon dioxide is now equivalent so the total volume of gas in the syringe remains the same. I hope this makes sense :)

I thought NADP was reduced NAD, but the video stated that glycolysis produced 2x NADH. Does that mean NADP and NADH are the same? I though NADH was just normal NAD?

@AlevelBiologyHelp

Hi! NADP and NADH are not the same. NADP (used mainly in photosynthesis) is NAD with a phosphate attached to it. NADH is reduced NAD (hence the extra hydrogen suggesting a reduction). Hope this makes sense :)

for oxidative phosphorylation- would it not be 2NADH that is used?

Technically, 10NADH are used in oxidative phosphorylation, but at A level, you don't really have to know the exact numbers, just that NADH is used. It's good to know though 😁

why link reaction and krebs cycle can't happen without oxygen?

@dominikprajzner2335

Жыл бұрын

Oxygen is the terminal electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, if the electrons aren’t taken up because there’s no oxygen then NADH and FADH2 can’t be oxidised and release their electrons

at 4:59 is that meant to be the link reaction?

Hi! I'm assuming you're on about glycolysis? For AQA, you don't need to know it in much detail at all (look at the specification). You just need to know that glucose is phosphorylated and is split into triose phosphate
