Cell Respiration Flashcards
how dos cell respiration starts? (before)
- removing carbohidrates from food, then transporting it to the bloodstream.
- glucose will leave the bloodstream and enter a tissue cell.
Which are the FOUR steps of Cell respiration?
- glycolysis
- oxidation of pyruvate
- kreb´s cycle
- electron transport chain
G what does glycolysis literally means?
“spliting suggars”
G where does it occurs?
in the cytoplasm
G which are its two phase?
energy investment phase and harvesting phase
G. I: glucose is in contact with … and what is the result of that?
glucose is in contact with 2ATP and that makes a 6 carbon sugar biphosphate molecule.
G.I: the 6 carbon sugar biphosphate splits creating (…) and the harvesting phase begins
2 G3P =
2 Pccc
G.I: formule for Glycolysis investment phase
Glucose + 2ATP = PccccccP
PccccccP / 2 = 2Pccc
G.H: explain the Harvesting phase
the 2 molecules of G3P (three carbons, 1 phosphate) plus 2NADP+ plus 4ADP will result into 2molecules of three carbons, 2NADH and 4ATP
G.H Formule the harvesting phase
2G3P + (2NADP+) + 4ADP = 2ccc + 2NADH + 4ATP
2Pccc + (2NADP+) + 4ADP = 2ccc + 2NADH + 4ATP
pyruvates
G- K: where does the pyruvates and NADH goes after glycolysis?
To the mitochondria
K: what happens before the KC:
the 2 molecules of pyruvates (2ccc) oxidate
K: which are the products of 1 pyruvate oxidated?
Acetyl-CoA (2cc CoA)
NADH
Carbon dioxide (CO2)
K. give the formule for the KC:
- (cc CoA) + cccc = cccccc
(CoA) - cccccc + NADP+ = ccccc
(CO2) (NADH) - ccccc + NADP+ = cccc
(CO2) (NADH) - cccc + ADP + P = cccc
(ATP) - cccc + FAP+ = cccc
(FADH) - cccc + NADP+ = cccc
(NADH)
K. for every glucose that enter glycolysis this cycle is completed…
twice
