Question

Briefly describe the oxidative phosphorylation in plants

Answer 1

The conversation of ADP into ATP in the presence of inorganic phosphate is called phosphorylation

Answer 2

Oxidative phosphorylation is the process in which ATP is formed as a result of the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH 2 to O 2 by a series of electron carriers. ... For example, oxidative phosphorylation generates 26 of the 30 molecules of ATP that are formed when glucose is completely oxidized to CO2 and H2O.The enzymes that help catalyze oxidative phosphorylation are embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The events of the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation take place in the matrix. The outer membrane of the mitochondria is largely permeable and allows many molecules to freely diffuse across it.
