Anaerobic Step Flashcards
(16 cards)
Where does the Anaerobic Step occur?
Cytoplasm
What is the purpose of the Anaerobic Step?
Regenerate NAD+ to allow glycolysis to continue
What type of Respiration does the Anaerobic deal with?
Only Anaerobic Respiration
What stage is the Anaerobic Step in anaerobic respiration?
Second step following glycolysis
What happens in the Anaerobic Step in animals?
Glcuose 6C > 2 Pyruvate 3C > 2 Lactate 3C
where 2NAD+ > 2NADH > 2NAD+
What happens to the NAD+ in anaerobic step for animals?
2NAD+ reduced to 2NADH
NADH reduces Pyruvate by giving hydrogen to form Lactate. Becomes NAD+ again and goes back to glucose
What is the net result in anaerobic step of animals?
2ATP
2 Lactic Acid
What enzymes are used in the Anaerobic Step?
Decarboxylase
Dehydrogenase
What happens in the Anaerobic Step in plants?
Glucose 6C > 2 Pyruvate 3C > 2 Ethanal 2C > 2 Ethanol 2C
Where 2NAD+ > 2NADH > 2NAD+
What happens to the NAD+ in the anaerobic step in plants?
2NAD+ is reduced to 2NADH
2NADH reduces Ethanal to form Ethanol
2NADH beocmes 2NAD+ again and returns to glucose.
What is the product between 2 Pyruvate and 2 Ethanal?
2CO2
What are the products of Anaerobic Step in plants?
2ATP
2 Ethanol
2CO2
What is needed for the Anaerobic Step to occur?
Glucose
ADP
Pi
NAD+
How many carbons does lactate have?
3 Carbons
How many carbons does Ethanal and Ethanol have?
2 Carbons
What happens in both types of Anaerobic Step when NAD+ is reduced?
2ADP + 2Pi > 2ATP
