Q

Aerobic Cellular Respiration
-balance reaction
-Glucose is ________
-Most ATP is produced through what chain reactions

A

C6H12O6 + 36P(ion)+36ADP+6O2 produces 6COS + 6H2O +36ATP
-glucose is catabloyzed in many steps through glycolysis and the Kerbs cycle
-most ATP is produced through a related chain of rxns called oxidativee phosphorylation

-how many membranes, connected?
-inner membrane ____ to form what
-space between membranes is _____
-centre fluisd is called _____
-what ribosomes, and what DNA

A

-2 membranes, not connected
-inner membrane folds to form cristae
-space between is called intermembrane space

Q

Explain the function
-Cristae
-Intermembrane space
-fluid matrix

A

-highly folded inner membrane, large surface area for many electron transport chains and proton pores
-small volume so protons will accumulate here with high concentration
-contains enzymes and intermediates for Krebs cycle

Q

Steps of Aerobic cellular respiration

A
  1. glycolysis
  2. Krebs cycle (including link rxn)
  3. oxidative phosphorylation (Electron transport chain and chemiosmosis): oxidation/reduction (redox) rxns are used through cellular resp to strip energy from glucose

Oxidation/ Reduction (Redox)
-Oxidation=
-Reduction=
-oxidizing agent=
-reducing agent=
-what happens when electron is transferred

A

-loss of electrons/hydrogen
-gain of electrons/hydrogen
-electron acceptor
-electron donor
-some energy is released and harnessed to do work
