The Importance of Oxygen 

This is probably one of the finest, well explained videos that I have ever watched. Knowledge is real power because I felt so empowered after watching. Thank you for posting.

you literally cleared up all my questions with just one video. a living legend

those 9 dislikes are from fermentation

Man, you’re such a gift to the world thanks for all you do.

I never click " Skip" on ad button every educational video. Thank you, Mr. Andersen.

Your voice is calm, soothing and clear. I don't know if you are going to read this but thank you very much.

beautiful. Love this channel. 3 of my children have mitochondrial disease and you explain things so well. Thank you!

Q: "Was that helpful?" A: YES!!! Thank you Paul.

wow, this guy is a brilliant teacher! you are teacher of the year man!

Wow, this goes so much more in depth than any of the other videos. Thank you.

Thanks a million Paul ! Crystal clear explanation of the role of oxygen in the production of ADP.

I'm so glad I came across this video! was really confused about the electron transport chain, but you explained it really well. Thank you so much!!!

THANKYOU! I have watched various vids about the electron chain without getting to understand why O2 is needed. Simply, O2s are pulling all e-.

I want to know who disliked this? Some nerd who saw a screw up, some kid forced to watch this? A candle?

Holy cow, that explanation was flawless!

Thank you very much for taking the time to do this informative video. You likely don't read all the comments, but if you do, a thank you from a botanist.

I was looking for answers of what oxygen exactly does in cellular respiration and could not find an answer till now. Thank you so much for posting!

No words.... To thank u..... Great work for humanity as a teacher😊

Thank you so much for your amazing explanation. Words cannot express how thankful I am!

i gave thumbs up because each little video teaches me one more little thing. i will say that all the other videos say the protons are on the inside of the membrane (no big deal)

The best description ever! Well done!

Thanks for the great explanation even for somebody like me who has written books and articles on mitochondria

Awesome Explanation.

One of the Finest explanations on ETC....😃

Thank you for your videos! These helped me through online classes.

That was helpful... Better explanation than any of my chemistry professors

Nothing replace a teacher. Congratulations.

Amazing explaining, I'm helped so much!

Really good explanation and visualisation!

this is the best video ive ever watched

Do a video on energy dynamic in an ecosystem!

It's the details for me🙌. Thank you.

Excellent explanation.Really wonderful concept.

You are really good. You explain things well.

Thanks for the explanation!

Video Request!! Hi your videos are the reasons i pass biology, can you please make a separate chemiosmosis video please before the next 2 or 3 weeks, thank you!!!!

Best explanation.

Greatest video you 're a great explainer

That was really helpful...... Really u explained it so easily.... My science book is really a mess....I bet your brain will blow up if u see my book!!!!

excellent analogy !

thx hank green, i was stuck on my hw. xxx

Hi I so much like that but maybe I 'mean missing one point. So if water molecule wasn't formed, couldn't those ions of H pass through the ATP syntase and form ATP? Maybe I don't quite understand what is ADP..? any link you could guide me to? thank you

Thanks, that was very informal and interesting examples

you rock mister anderson. thanks :)

God bless you! That was the best explanation ever.

What happens with those electrons when the oxygen doesn't receive them? Do they stay there in the electron chain complexes?

Thankyouuuuuu my all doubts are clear 🥺🥺🥺💜💜👍

Excellent video.Thank you very much.

Note that by "ATP," what is really referenced is Mg(2+)-ATP. ATP is worthless without the magnesium attached. Oh, and without bio-copper (ceruloplasmin-bound copper), that oxygen in complex four won't split cleanly and oxidants (accidents with oxygen) will occur. Where are you getting your magnesium and bio-copper.

Many thanks and much appreciated! Can you explain "hydrolysis"? I'm guessing: In an automobile, "Internal combusion." In a human body: "Hydrolysis"? Yes? Same basic principle?

That was great and absolutely helpful. Thank you

Super clear. Thank you sir.

Thanks for saving my midterm grade!

I love his intro!

I think Oxygen is the mediator which connects light (wavelength) and life (dna) . Partial existence of two destroying or making oxygen disappear.

it was helpful.thank you.

Question : from where do the ADP and Pi come from ?

That was excellent

Thank you so much. Finally understood this:)

Thanks Paul

Excellent! Thanks

This was brilliant! I finally understand it! thank you.

I was left to wonder what means "die" at the end. There is lots of processes that just can stop and nothing bad happens.But in this case stopping the process means "die". Story should go on little bit.

That was immensely helpful!!!!

You are at the top of your game. Hail.

hey you are rocking man, through your awesome lecture

loved it - gr8 explanation Thanks a ton !

thank you so much you save my grade in biology I was c+ then I move on the A+ in my exams

Amazing

You are my hero.

Thank you so much!!!! So helpful!

Really really helpful!!!

Thaaaaank yoooou sooooo much. Listen i was just wondering why there was so much need for oxygen.

nice video... keep up the good work

Very, very nice, Citations ?

Where does the P comes from ?

This guy is great, but man am I getting high school biology and chemistry ptsd

Omg ur a life saver!!

AMAZING

Thank you

This is an interesting video. To me.

It indeed is helpful.

Yes - quite helpful.

Epic, thanks!

God bless you

Legend

The video said that "Oxygen is required for all life". The anaerobes would like a word with you.

Why water but not CO2

Thanks a lot🙌

awesome

It was very helpful - thanks. Brilliant.

So what would happen if you applied a strong 60GHz electromagnetic field to this process? www.radiometrics.com/data/uploads/2012/11/Makarov_JQSRT_2011.pdf

Thanks Sir..... Best Best Best

Thanks you 👉

what about fermantation? when you say all living things need oxygen what about bacteria like yeast. Also, what about anaerobic cellular respiration in our muscle during a hard workout like sprinting?

thx for nice video ;)

The Hydrogen -e = Electron-charge could be presented as a vibration with an oscilating (electric wave) value, where after each interaction with a proton, looses some of its its oscilation value or vibration(energy) untill its absolute mininum charge is reached for being able to react with another molecule being Oxygen . Note that there is no Neutrons present at this cellurar level therefor logically all the atoms only consist out of Electrons and Protons, Positive and Negative charges in a duality spinn, (proven and can be observed with the help of studies and experiments in electromagnetic dynamics) this mean atoms are Electrical in nature and do not fit the standard model of an Atom being a nuclear fusion of fission reaction like the old model portrait it to be. Furthermore it is the Electromagnetic force that is the driving force in all living things at a cellular level and not Gravity.

great!

Electrons the source of life no carbs no fat eat more electrons

u r great
