Electron Carriers01:24

Electron Carriers

91.5K
Electron carriers can be thought of as electron shuttles. These compounds can easily accept electrons (i.e., be reduced) or lose them (i.e., be oxidized). They play an essential role in energy production because cellular respiration is contingent on the flow of electrons.
Over the many stages of cellular respiration, glucose breaks down into carbon dioxide and water. Electron carriers pick up electrons lost by glucose in these reactions, temporarily storing and releasing them into the electron...

Electron Affinity03:07

Electron Affinity

43.1K
The electron affinity (EA) is the energy change for adding an electron to a gaseous atom to form an anion (negative ion).

Overview
Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles that are attracted to an orbit around the positively-charged nucleus of an atom. They reside in locations that are associated with energy levels called shells and are further organized into sub-shells and orbitals within each shell.
Electrons Orbit the Nucleus
Electrons are found in specific locations outside of the nucleus. The shell in which an electron resides indicates the general energy level of the electron: those closer to the...

Electron Transport Chains01:28

Electron Transport Chains

111.9K
The final stage of cellular respiration is oxidative phosphorylation that consists of two steps: the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis. The electron transport chain is a set of proteins found in the inner mitochondrial membrane in eukaryotic cells. Its primary function is to establish a proton gradient that can be used during chemiosmosis to produce ATP and generate electron carriers, such as NAD+ and FAD, that are used in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle.
The ETC is comprised of...

Electron Orbital Model01:18

Electron Orbital Model

72.0K
Orbitals are the areas outside of the atomic nucleus where electrons are most likely to reside. They are characterized by different energy levels, shapes, and three-dimensional orientations. The location of electrons is described most generally by a shell or principal energy level, then by a subshell within each shell, and finally, by individual orbitals found within the subshells.
The first shell is closest to the nucleus, and it has only one subshell with a single spherical orbital called the...

Electron Configuration of Multielectron Atoms03:26

Electron Configuration of Multielectron Atoms

64.7K
The alkali metal sodium (atomic number 11) has one more electron than the neon atom. This electron must go into the lowest-energy subshell available, the 3s orbital, giving a 1s22s22p63s1 configuration. The electrons occupying the outermost shell orbital(s) (highest value of n) are called valence electrons, and those occupying the inner shell orbitals are called core electrons. Since the core electron shells correspond to noble gas electron configurations, we can abbreviate electron...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Public Health
  • Toxicology

Background:

  • Electronic cigarette use is increasing globally.
  • Limited literature exists on the dermatologic effects of e-cigarettes.
  • E-cigarette use is a growing public health concern.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review existing literature on skin manifestations linked to e-cigarette use.
  • To enhance awareness of adverse dermatologic effects associated with e-cigarettes.
  • To address the impact of this evolving public health issue.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature search was conducted using the PubMed database.
  • Studies focusing on the cutaneous or mucosal effects of e-cigarette use were retrieved.
  • Evidence from relevant studies was systematically reviewed.

Main Results:

  • Reported dermatologic manifestations include contact dermatitis.
  • Thermal injuries associated with e-cigarette devices have been documented.
  • Oral mucosal lesions are another reported side effect.

Conclusions:

  • E-cigarette use is associated with significant dermatologic adverse effects.
  • Awareness of these risks is crucial for public health.
  • Further research, potentially including randomized controlled trials, is needed.
