Q

What does anaerobic mean?

A

without oxygen

18
Q

what does aerobic mean?

19
Q

Which of the stages in anaerobic?

20
Q

Which of the stages is aerobic?

A

Kreb Cycle and the electron transport chain

21
Q

How do cell respiration and photosynthesis compare

A

Photosynthesis deposits energy while CR withdraws or energy, they are opposites on a global level, the waste products of one are the raw materials for the other

22
Q

What are NADH and FADH2?

A

energy carrying molecules

23
Q

Where do NADH and FADH2 carry their energy?

A

in their electrons

24
Q

Why are NADH and FADH2 so important?

A

they provide the energy (electrons) that will power the making of ATP in the last stage during oxidative phosphorylation

25
Why are the stages of glycolysis and the kreb cycle so important?
They provide the energy carrying molecules NADH and FADH2 that will power the making of ATP in the last stage
26
Who is the reduced in the last stage, oxidative phosphorylation?
oxygen
27
When oxygen is reduced what does it form?
water (H2O)
28
What is the reactant of glycolysis?
glucose
29
What is the product of glycolysis?
2 pyruvic acid (pyruvate)
30
What is the reactant of the Kreb Cycle?
2 acetyl co-A
31
What are the products of the Kreb Cycle?
NADH, FADH2, CO2, ATP
32
Which organisms does alcoholic fermentation occur in?
yeast
33
Which organisms does lactic acid fermentation occur in?
animal cells and bacteria
34
What type of alcohol is produced in alcoholic fermentation?
ethanol
35
What is another term for anaerobic respiration?
fermentation
36
What is another term for aerobic respiration?
cellular respiration
37
if something has 30 grams of carbs, how many calories does it provide you with?
120 Calories
38
Where do the H+ ions get energy from to actively transport from the matrix to the intermembrane space?
electrons
39
Who is oxidized during the last stage, oxidative phosphorylation (ETC)?
NADH and FADH2
40
What food/drink are produced through alcoholic fermentation?
wine, beer, bread
41
What food/drink are produced through lactic acid fermentation?
dairy products (cheese, yogurt), sauerkraut (pickled vegetables)
