-NAD+

-ADP

-FAD

17
Q

Kreb’s Cycle Products

A
  • 4 CO2 (waste product)
  • 2 ATP
  • 6 NADH
  • 2 FADH2
18
Q

Kreb Cycle Location

19
Q

What is the purpose of the Krebs Cycle?

A

To make FADH2, NADH, and a little ATP

20
Q

What is the purpose of pyruvate conversion?

A

To go to the Krebs Cycle

21
Q

What is the purpose of Glycolysis?

A

To break down glucose into Pyruvate, generate energy in the form of ATP, and make NADP which are all used in the next other steps of cellular respiration

22
Q

Electron Transport Chain Location

A

-inner Membrane

23
Q

Reactants of ETC

A
  • O2
  • 2 FADH2

-10 NADH

-ADP

24
Q

Products of ETC

25
What is the main purpose of the ETC?
To make ATP
26
Describe the role of oxygen in the ETC
It's role is to pull the electrons off the ETC and to bind it with H+ ions to make water
27
What happens in Glycolysis?
- Glucose is broken down into Pyruvate - 2 ATP molecules are formed (net gain) - 2 NADH are formed
28
What happens in the Kreb's Cycle
-Many electrons carriers a re formed: 6 NADH and 2 FADH2 - 2 ATP molecules are formed -Waste product CO2 is formed
29
30
What happens in the ETC
- Electrons from NADH and FADH2 are dropped off and help power the production of ATP - 32 ATP molecules are formed -Water is formed
31
Cellular Respiration
The process that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen
32
_______ makes cellular respiration possible
Oxygen
33
How do you know how many times the Kreb Cycle cycles?
By the amount of Acetyl CoA
34
How do heterotrophs get energy?
They get energy from consuming autotrophs which they rely on to get energy from since they cannot make their own food
34
How do organisms generate energy when oxygen is not available
-Organisms go through the process of Fermentation (lactic acid or alcoholic) which creates NAD+ as a product allowing Glycolysis to continue (allows cells to produce ATP when there is no oxygen)
