Abstract:
While perhaps more in the purview of physics, the hypothesis proposed here still has wide-ranging implications for biological living systems as well. Central to it are the fundamental particles known as electrons, which of course also play a central role in the electron transport chain and oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions found throughout not only inorganic, but organic and biochemistry, in addition to biology. The formerly mentioned electron transport chain involves the incremental extraction of energy from electrons in living biological systems, while the latter is characterized by loss of electrons by one chemical species – oxidation – and subsequent gain of those electrons – reduction – by an adjacent chemical species. Such is the basis for nearly every, if not all metabolic processes in living organisms.
