    So unbelievably unfortunate that a channel with this kind of quality production and clarity of explanation only has like 12k subscribers and hasn’t posted in 2 years. I truly wish your videos reach the right audience at some point and you get the success you deserve

    I’m begging you. (Oh by the way thank you for your series on ADT synthase! 👍 )
    Where was I… Oh yeah: I’m begging you: Please oh please try to go one layer deeper on how the electrons know where to go. I’m most interested in the Krebs cycle, especially in reverse, but I’ll take whatever you wanna do…. The Calvin cycle is excellent and I’ll happily follow along there, too. But cancer sounds really weird, in biochemical terms. 😮
    …That’s all I’ve got right now.
    Either way (obviously I have no idea what I just asked of you!) please keep doing this UA-cam thing! Awesome!
    One day, I thought it was weird that there’s this trope in literature about how bumblebees can’t fly, or don’t know they can’t fly, or something similarly silly. So I looked up bee muscles because I figured they had to be different. 🤯🤯🤯
    😵‍💫 You know exactly what happened to my brain after that! Next thing you know I’m looking at the differences between airplane lift vs bee lift, and then bug juice vs blood, and then I got “biochemistry for dummies” and learned how dish soap works…. Nowadays, I’m expecting Severus Snape to pop up as a caterpillar that talks about muchness, and then turns into The English Patient. (I’m not at all confused about my Kevin Bacon movie linkage. Rather, I’m trying to explain the effect biochemistry has had on my curiosity.) Your animations are fantastic! 👍 May I have some more please?

    I came here from the new vlogbrothers video, and I couldn't be more thankful that they recommended you. I am a big (BIG) sucker for science, especially biology, but I was never good enough to actually go into it as a major, but because I was good enough, I was able to major in psychology. My passion and curiosity for science are still there, waiting to be nourished, so I dedicate my free time to indulge in my guilty pleasure, and I look for simple yet interesting and entertaining ways to learn (it's my free time, after all). I fell in love with this channel, you are so underrated, I hope other people get to see that as well!!!!

    @Abigail-hu5wf 4 роки тому +2

    Thank you so much for this summary! As fascinating as they are, plants are definitely my least studied eukaryotic kingdom and so I'm really missing some of this foundational biochemistry despite how incredibly crucial it is to literally every other member of Eukarya. While I do remember learning some of this, it rapidly became swamped by mammalian biochemistry and so it's wonderful to have it all recapped and a few new things added on as well. Had no idea just HOW oxidising the P680/P700 complexes are!
    I think my main question for my own further reading: how do the different forms of chlorophyll convey different advantages? Chlorophylls A through E (A being the most common and found in all known photosynthetic life) each seem to have different use-cases. I wonder how each of them interact with each other (given that many cells have multiple types) to convey different advantages over using chlorophyll A alone!

      What are the differences between CoEnzyme Q (in oxidative phosphorylation) and Plastoquinone? I can't help but get the impression they're almost the same as they both take two electrons and transfer them to a cytochrome. Thanks in advance.

  • @vidhunandhu
    @vidhunandhu Рік тому +1

    My question is that if the p860 and p700 are positively charged then why do they transport the electrons to the other parts instead of absorbing them???

    • @Gelatinocyte2
      @Gelatinocyte2 7 місяців тому +1

      They're only positively charged from the subsequent transfer of electrons; they're positive because they've just donated that electron. They can only absorb electrons from another molecule where it is energetically preferable or feasible, no take-backs.

    I don't need to remember it as Cyt bf because "Cytochrome" is already kind of a badass name that sticks in your head. Guessing the "bf" has to do with the fact that this is the plant version rather than the human version.
