WHY?
1. Energy lost due to active transport of the NADH produced from glycolysis*
2. Some H+ ions may leak from the outer space to the matrix…. Energy is released as heat
3. Different cells may couple proton motive forces with other energy processes not ATP
Question “Why do we breathe?”
Pre-School:
If you do not breathe, you die. You need to breathe to live.
Early Grade School:
We breathe because we need Oxygen to live.
Late Grade School:
We breathe to provide oxygen for our cells and get rid of carbon dioxide
Typical Freshman Biology :
We breathe so oxygen can burn our food to make energy
Advanced Freshman Biology:
We breathe so that oxygen can burn our food to make ATP in the
mitochondria
Glucose + Oxygen  Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP
AP Biology:
We breathe because Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the
ETC. The high-energy electrons are oxidized from glucose. The
electrons are used to pump Hydrogen ions to form a proton motive force
to make ATP by chemiosmosis

Oxidative Phosphorylation
Matrix protons get pumped out
To the intermembrane space.
Then they take an inward route
Through the ATP synthase.
Feel the muscles
Feel the sun shine
Feel the ATP
See the children
See the athletes
Ox phos fuels them
you and me
In the morning
In the midday
In the afternoon
In the evening
In the midnight
Ox phos fuels them
me and you
When I feel up
When I feel good
When I move around
When I sit up
When I stand up
When I make my sound
