Q

Explain glycolysis

A

2 ATPs donate a phosphate group to the sugar. Glucose then splits into two 3-carbon molecules of pyruvate. Each pyruvate acquires another phosphate group & 2 NADHs are produced.Producing net yield of 2 ATP (4 made & 2 spent) and 2 NADH, 2 3-carbons (pyruvate).

Q

Explain The prep step.

A

Pyruvate is oxidized to acetyl coA

As they enter the mitochondria. 2 carbons stripped are exhaled as co2. 2 NADH produced. No ATP is formed here.

Q

Explain the Krebs cycle.

A
The kreb cycle excepts the acetyl coA, one at a time, running its cycle twice.
4 carbons exhaled as co2

Q

What is the total yield of ATP, NADH and FADH2, after Glyco & Krebs cycle?

A

TOTAL:
4 atp
10 NADH
2 FADH2

(6 co2 exhaled byproduct)

17
Q

Explain the ETC.

A

NADH & Fadh2 donate e- to etc. As e- travels through etc, hydrogen ions transport into intermembrane compartment. At end of etc, e- are donated to O2 and forms h2o.
Final e- acceptor is O2. Hydrogen ions move DOWN concen gradient into matrix through ATP synthase, producing ATP.(phosphate added back to adp).
Producing 34 ATP

18
Q

What is the total ATP of cellular respiration?

19
Q

What is the starting Materials and end products of glycolysis?

A

Starting is glucose.

End product is 2 pyruvate, 2ATPs, 2 NADH

20
Q

What is produced in the Prep step?

A

Pyruvate’s are oxidized to two acetyl coA (3 carbon each)

2 CO2’s are exhaled.
2 NADH

21
Q

What is the starting materials and end products of the Krebs cycle?

A

2 acetyl coAs are cycled once each

Producing: 2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH2, and 4 co2 exhaled

22
Q

At what point are on the carbons gone?

A

After Krebs cycle

23
Q

What is the starting materials and products of the electron transport chain?

A

10 NADH and 2 fadh drop e- into etc.

Producing: 34 ATP

24
What is the final electron acceptor in the ETC?
O2 (inhaled)
25
Electrons are what kind of energy?
Potential
26
What parts of cellular respiration are anaerobic and aerobic?
Glycolysis is anaerobic Prep step, Krebs cycle, and ETC are aerobic
27
Where does each step of cellular respiration occur in an animal cell?
Glycol- cytoplasm Prep-mitochondria Krebs-mitochondria etc-mitochondria embedded inner membrane
28
What does a glucose molecule look like chemically?
6 carbons with a 1:2:1 ratio c, h and o C6H12O6
29
Proteins and fats are also used as energy sources for the cell. True or false?
True.
30
Starch and glycogen are polysaccharides. True or false?
True.
31
Explain how a protein is used in cellular respiration.
Proteins are broken down into amino acids and enters CR as pyruvate, acetyl coA, or prep step to the Krebs cycle.
32
Explain how lipids are used in cellular respiration.
Enzymes in the small intestine digest fat into glycerol and fatty acids. Enzymes convert glycerol to pyruvate. Fatty acids Enter the mitochondria cut into many 2 carbon pieces released as acetyl coA. These both continue on with cellular respiration at those points.
33
In the absence of oxygen, a cell can re-create NAD by another pathway called __________.
Fermentation
34
What are the two types of fermentation?
Alcoholic and lactic acid
35
Is fermentation anaerobic or aerobic?
Anaerobic
36
What process of cellular respiration does fermentation take part in?
Glycolysis
37
What is alcoholic fermentation?
NADH reduces pyruvate to ethanol and CO2. NAD is re-created
38
What happens in lactic acid fermentation?
NADH reduces pyruvate to lactic acid NAD IS re-created
39
During fermentation, oxidation of a glucose molecule yields only _____ATP.
