Carbohydrate Metabolism PPT (Part II) Flashcards
Means “splitting of sugar”
Glycolysis
Occurs in the cytosol of the cell
Glycolysis
Partially oxidizes glucose (6C) into two pyruvate (3C) molecules.
Glycolysis
Occurs whether or not oxygen is present.
Glycolysis
Occurs whether or not oxygen is present.
Glycolysis
Requires input of 2 ATP
Glycolysis
It involves splitting glucose into two molecules of Pyruvate
Glycolysis
Also produces 2 NADH and 4 ATP
Glycolysis
Requires input of 2 ATP
Glycolysis
Cyclical series of oxidation reactions that give off CO2 and produce one ATP per cycle
Krebs Cycle
Turns twice per glucose molecule
Krebs Cycle
Turns twice per glucose molecule
Krebs Cycle
Produces two ATP
Krebs Cycle
Located in the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
Electron Transport Chain
Oxygen pulls the electrons from NADH and FADH2 down the electron transport chain to a lower energy state
