Parent topics

Subtopics

  • Cellular respiration [r]: A series of metabolic processes by which living cells produce energy through the oxidation of organic substances. [e]
  • Citric acid cycle [r]: A series of enzyme-catalysed chemical reactions of central importance in all living cells that use oxygen as part of cellular respiration. [e]
  • Carbon dioxide [r]: Chemical compound composed of two oxygen atoms covalently bonded to a single carbon atom. [e]
  • Electron transport chain [r]: (ETC) A series of biochemical reactions that couple a chemical reaction between an electron donor and an electron acceptor to the transfer of protons across a membrane. [e]
  • Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide [r]: (NAD+/NADH) A coenzyme found in cells that is involved in redox reactions, carrying electrons from one reaction to another; NAD+ is an oxidizing agent, accepting electrons, and becomes reduced to NADH. [e]
  • Photosystem II [r]: A multi-subunit protein pigment complex embedded in thylakoid membranes, mediating the initial light harvesting and electron transfer steps in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis in plants, algae and cyanobacteria. [e]
  • Photolysis [r]: Chemical process by which molecules are broken down through the absorption of light. [e]
  • Oxidoreductases [r]: A group of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of electrons between molecules. [e]
  • Vitamin C [r]: Required by a few mammalian species, including humans and higher primates. It is water-soluble and is usually obtained by eating fruits and vegetables; associated with scurvy (hence its chemical name, ascorbic acid). [e]
