Q

Breaks glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate

A

Glycolysis

17
Q

Production of ATP using energy derived from the redox reaction of an electron transport chain

A

Oxidative phosphorylation

18
Q

Energy released during a reaction, such as the breakdown of sugar molecules, is used directly to synthesize ATP. Small amount of energy is generated

A

Substrate Level

19
Q

Where is glycolysis taking place?

20
Q

Why is oxygen the ultimate electron acceptor?

A

It’s extremely electronegative

21
Q

What are the 2 electron carrier molecules that feed electrons into the electron transport system?

A

NADH, FADH2

22
Q

What must be supplied for aerobic respiration to continue?

23
Q

What are the reactants of cellular respiration?

A

Glucose and oxygen

24
Q

What are the products of cellular respiration?

A

Water, ATP, carbon dioxide

25
Which phases of cellular respiration occur in the mitochondria?
Krebs, oxidative phosphorylation, link
26
What phases require oxygen?
Oxidative phosphorylation
27
What phase produces carbon dioxide?
Krebs, link
28
What phase produces water?
Oxidative phosphorylation
29
What phases produce ATP?
Krebs, glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation
30
How many ATPs are being produced for every glucose undergoing cellular respiration?
38
31
What happens to the amount of NAD if only glycolysis was occuring?
NAD will run out
32
What does the presence of lactic acid indicate about what process is occuring?
Glycolysis
33
What molecules acts as an electron acceptor in glycolysis?
NADH
34
Is the pyruvate likely to move across the mitochondrial membrane by diffusion?
No because it's polar
35
