cellular life into the fast lane.

that function so valuable?

b. Where does the ETC get its electrons?

c. What is the name of the last electron carrier protein in the
ETC?

d. What does it do with its electron?

e. Name at least one additional electron carrier.

f. How many total ATP’s can be generated from the oxidative
breakdown of one molecule of glucose?

g. How does this compare to the anaerobic breakdown of the same
glucose?
