(36 cards)
Stages of Cellular Respiration
1) Glycolysis
- Pyruvate conversion
2) Kreb’s Cycle
3) Electron Transport Chain
Formula for Cellular Respiration
Symbols:
C6H12O2 + 6O2 —-> 6H20 + 6C02 + ATP (energy)
Words:
Glucose + Oxygen —> Water + Carbon Dioxide + ATP
Parts of the Mitochondria
-Outer Membrane
-Inner Membrane
-Interspace membrane
-Matrix
Cristae
Where does Glycolysis occur?
Cytoplasm
Reactants of Glycolysis
-Glucose
-2 NAD+
- 2 ADP
Products of Glycolysis
- 2 Pyruvate
- 2 NADH
- 2 ATP (net)
Anaerobic Pathway
When there is little to no or no oxygen present at all
-Fermentation: -Lactic Acid Fermentation -Alcoholic Fermentation
Aerobic Pathway
-Process where oxygen is present
-Ex:
-Glycolysis -Pyruvate Conversion -Kreb's Cycle - ETC
Lactic Acid Fermentation Equation
- Pyruvate + NADH —> Lactic Acid + NAD+
Location of Lactic Acid Fermentation?
Cytoplasm
Alcohol Fermentation equation
Pyruvate + NADH —> Alcohol + NAD+
Location of Alcohol Fermentation
Cytoplasm
Pyruvate Conversion Reactants
- Pyruvate and NAD+
Pyruvate Conversion Products
- 2 CO2
- 2 NADH
- Acetyl CoA
Location of Pyruvate Conversion
Matrix
Kreb’s Cycle Reactants
- 2 Acetyl CoA
-NAD+
-ADP
-FAD
Kreb’s Cycle Products

- 6 NADH
- 2 FADH2
Kreb Cycle Location
Matrix
What is the purpose of the Krebs Cycle?
To make FADH2, NADH, and a little ATP
What is the purpose of pyruvate conversion?
To go to the Krebs Cycle
What is the purpose of Glycolysis?
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
Electron Transport Chain Location
-inner Membrane
Reactants of ETC
- O2
- 2 FADH2
-10 NADH
-ADP
Products of ETC
- H2O
-34 ATP
