Chapter 9- Cellular Respiration Flashcards
(40 cards)
is the catabolic pathwat of aerobic and anerobic resperation which break down organic molecules for the prouduction of ATP
Cellualar Respiration
living cells require___from outside sources
photosynthesis
energy flows into an ecosystem as sunlight and leave as
heat
photsynthesis generates oxygen and organic molecules are used in
cellualar respiration
cells use chemical energy to general what in order to power work
ATP
A partial degradation of sugars that occurs without oxygen
Fermentation–Anarobic
consumes organic molecules and oxygen and yields ATP-most effective
Aerobic respiration
Anaerobic respiration does not use?
oxygen
CHO, Fats, proteins are all consumed as
fuels
the breakdown of glucose is
Name 3
- catabolic
- has a negative delta G
- Results in energy being given off
chemeical reactions that transfer e- between reactants are called
Oxidatation -reduction or redox reactions
in oxidation a substance loses or gains an electon as its being oxidized
loses
in reduction a substance loses or gains an electon
gains
electron donor is called
reducing agent
elecron receptor is called
oxidizing agent
during celluar respiration the fuel is oxidized and the oxygen is
reduced
during cellular respiration, most electrons travel the “downhill route” from:
NADPH to NADH to the electron transport chain to oxygen
Respirations is the cumulative function of 3 metabolic stages:
- Gycolysis “sugar splitting”
- Citric Acid Cylce or Krebs Cycle
- Oxidative phosphorylation
All negative delta G are
Exergonic
all exergonic are
spontanious
the natural way things go-takes place without an external force and another reaction needed to drive it-may not happen very quickly
Spontanious reaction
can not occue without input from an external source. do not occur naturally
Nonspontanious reaction
Glycolysis occurs where
cytoplasm
Glycolysis produces how many net ATP for celluar respiration
