Aerobic Metabolism

Question 1

Long term energy system

Answer 1

Aerobic metabolism

Question 2

Aerobic metabolism gets energy from

Answer 2

CHO, Proteins, Fats

Question 3

Pyruvate moves into the mitochondria through

Answer 3

Protein channel- monocarboxylase transporter 1 (MCT1)

Question 4

2 possible shuttles for NADH H+

Answer 4

1) Malate aspartate
2 )Glycerol Phosphate

Question 5

The conversion of pyruvate into acetyl coA

Answer 5

Pyruvate + Coenzyme A + NAD+
↓ enzyme: Pyruvate dehydrogenase
Acetyl CoA
CO2
NADH H+

Question 6

Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle) occurs in the

Answer 6

mitochondrial matrix

Question 7

Krebs Cycle Steps

Question 8

Rate limiting enzyme for Krebs Cycle

Answer 8

Isocitrate dehydrogenase

Question 9

1 Acetyl CoA generates

Answer 9

1 ATP
2 CO2
1 FADH2
3 NADH H+

Question 10

The ETC: NADH H+ pathway

Answer 10

Complex I
↓
Coenzyme Q
↓
Complex III
↓
Cytochrome C
↓
Complex IV

Question 11

ETC: FADH2 pathway

Answer 11

Complex II
↓
Coenzyme Q
↓
Complex III
↓
Cytochrome C
↓
Complex IV

Question 12

ETC: the ATPase

Answer 12

once a concentration gradient is created in the intermembrane space (14 hydrogen), H+ will flow back into the matrix
Allows ADP + Pi
↓
ATP

Question 13

Which molecule produces less ATP
FADH2 OR NADH H+

Answer 13

FADH2
- because complex 2 does not pump H+

Question 14

Role of Electrons in the ETC

Answer 14

Transported through the protein complexes to combine with O2 and H+ (H20 @ Complex IV)

Question 15

of ATP Produced through ETC/ 1 glucose

Answer 15

30-32

Question 16

Rate limiting step of ETC

Answer 16

Complex IV - cytochrome oxidase

Question 17

Malate Aspartate Shuttle

Answer 17

Slow twitch muscle

Question 18

Glycerol Phosphate Shuttle

Answer 18

Fast Twitch muscle
