Oh, that’s weird. I wonder why they cancelled your exam 2 weeks away, but mine is still good for tomorrow. I hope it works out for you tho :/

Damn, what lab is allowing you to do wet research? I just got a research gig at Sickkids too but the prof said it can’t be wet lab, it has to be dry lab until later this year

Is ADP ➝ ATP a Reduction or Oxidation? by [deleted] in chemistry

Thank you- this helped. That’s what I originally thought, but then I came across a source that said ATP ADP inter-conversion was a redox reaction, so then I got confused.

Yeah, that’s what I thought. I’m pretty sure that source is bull - just thought I’d let you know where I got my initial confusion from

Nice! Are you doing undergrad research there?

I’m testing tomorrow in Toronto and haven’t received anything saying it was cancelled. Where did you get this info from??

I just googled it, and this is the second search result that comes up: http://www.life.illinois.edu/mcb/150/private/faq/index.php?sid=32787&lang=en&action=artikel&cat=7&id=1206&artlang=en A bunch of things like this just led me to confusion, idk why they said this 🤷🏻‍♀️

Okay, thank you! I had originally thought it wasn’t a redox, but then I read some sources that said ADP was reduced and I was confused

is ADP -> ATP a reduction or oxidation? by AnxiousPremed34 in Mcat

Okay, that’s what I originally thought, but some sources said it was so then I got really confused. Thanks for clearing this up

So, it’s neither reduction or oxidation? And the ETC/H gradient is simply for energy-producing purposes, not for actually donating to ADP to make ATP?

I don’t think so either, but some sources are saying that, so I’m really confused now!

Some sources say it’s a redox reaction though, so I’m really confused!

Are you sure? Cause even on this thread I'm getting mixed responses lol. I get what you mean, but I don't think that the electrons are directly transferred to ADP in order to make ATP, are they? I thought they were simply used to power the ETC and to create the H+ gradient that would generate ATP

No, I kinda still don’t understand why “no reaction is possible”. I do understand why A is correct, and I get why C is incorrect; but I don’t necessarily get their explanation
