Glucose breakdown is exergonic! Energy is given off as heat and ATP. Redox reactions Occurs in matrix Net result: 4 carbon dioxide 2 ATP 6 NADH 2 FADH2 H pumped into inner-membrane space Oxygen is final electron acceptor Occurs on inner mitochondrial membrane – produces energy that drives oxidative phosphorylation Noncyclic electron flow Calvin cycle – end product is G3P (sugar) which will later be metabolized Into larger carbs Photorespiration: An Evolutionary Relic? • In photorespiration – O2 substitutes for CO2 in the active site of the enzyme rubisco – The photosynthetic rate is reduced – Energetically less efficient – Early atmosphere contained little oxygen • Enzyme rubisco could not distinguish between O2 or CO2 and thus today this continues • Or free radical preventer? C4 Plants • C4 plants minimize the cost of photorespiration (reduce uptake/use of O2) – By incorporating CO2 into four carbon compounds in mesophyll cells – Increasing CO2 levels • These four carbon compounds – Are exported to bundle sheath cells where O2 concentration is low, and then release CO2 used in the Calvin cycle.
