This clear and detailed lesson describes the process of oxidative phosphorylation, including the roles of the electron carriers, oxygen and the mitochondrial cristae and explains the role of chemiosmosis. The PowerPoint has been designed to cover points 5.2.2 (g) and (h) of the OCR A-level Biology A specification and includes details of the electron transport chain, proton gradients and ATP synthase.
The lesson begins with a discussion about the starting point of the reaction. In the previous stages, the starting molecule was the final product of the last stage but in this stage, it is the reduced coenzymes which release their hydrogen atoms. Moving forwards, the process of oxidative phosphorylation is covered in 7 detailed steps and at each point, key facts are discussed and explored in further detail to enable a deep understanding to be developed. Students will see how the proton gradient across the inner membrane is created and that the flow of protons down the channel associated with ATP synthase results in a conformational change and the addition of phosphate groups to ADP by oxidative phosphorylation. Understanding checks are included throughout the lesson to enable the students to assess their progress and prior knowledge checks allow them to recognise the clear links to other topics and modules.
This lesson has been written to tie in with the other uploaded lessons on glycolysis, the Link reaction and Krebs cycle and anaerobic respiration

Module 5.2: Photosynthesis & Respiration (OCR A-level Biology A)
Photosynthesis and respiration are two of the most commonly-assessed topics in the terminal A-level exams but are often poorly understood by students. These 14 lessons have been intricately planned to contain a wide range of activities that will engage and motivate the students whilst covering the key detail to try to deepen their understanding and includes exam-style questions so they are prepared for these assessments. The following specification points in modules 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 of the OCR A-level Biology A course are covered by these lessons: * The structure of a chloroplast and the sites of the two main stages of photosynthesis * The light-dependent stage of photosynthesis * The fixation of carbon dioxide and the light-independent stage of photosynthesis * The uses of triose phosphate * Factors affecting photosynthesis * The need for cellular respiration * The structure of the mitochondrion * The process and site of glycolysis * The link reaction and its site in the cell * The process and site of the Krebs cycle * The importance of coenzymes in cellular respiration * The process and site of oxidative phosphorylation * The chemiosmostic theory * The process of anaerobic respiration in eukaryotes * The relative energy values of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins as respiratory substrates * The use of the respiratory quotient Due to the detail of these lessons, it is estimated that it will take in excess of 2 months of A-level lessons to cover this module If you would like to sample the quality of the lessons, download the uses of triose phosphate, link reaction and respiratory substrates lessons as these have been shared for free

Module 5.2.2: Respiration (OCR A-level Biology A)
All 9 of the lessons included in this bundle are fully resourced and have been designed to cover the detailed content of module 5.2.2 (Respiration) of the OCR A-Level Biology A specification. The following specification points are covered by this bundle of lessons: * The need for cellular respiration * The structure of the mitochondrion * The process and site of glycolysis * The link reaction and its site in the cell * The process and site of the Krebs cycle * The importance of coenzymes in cellular respiration * The process and site of oxidative phosphorylation * The chemiosmotic theory * The process of anaerobic respiration in eukaryotes * The difference in the relative energy values of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins * The use and interpretation of the respiratory quotient All of the lessons are detailed and engaging and contain regular progress checks so that students can assess their understanding of the current topic as well as prior knowledge checks to enable links between topics and modules to be seen It is estimated that these lessons will cover in excess of a month's A-level Biology teaching time
