Q

Summarize the process of cellular respiration

A

Start with glucose
Make an intermediary product
GLYCOLYSIS

Use the intermediary product–> produce CO2
KREB’S CYCLE

Use the 'e' to make --> H2O + ATP
OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION (ETC+CHEMIOSMOSIS)

Q

How are 3C Pyruvate used in Anaerobic and Aerobic reactions?

A

In Anaerobic reactions, 3C Pyruvate is used in Fermentation

In Anaerobic reactions, 3C Pyruvate is used to make Acetyl CoA (6C) which is used in the Kreb’s Cycle

Q

What are Facultative Anaerobes?

A

Can switch between fermentation/ Aerobic Respiration depending on O2 availability (yeast, bacteria)

16
Q

What is the synthesis of ATP from NADH and FADH2 called?

A

Oxidative Phosphorylation

ETC+ Chemiomosis

17
Q

What is the electron transport chain?

A

Collection of molecules in the inner membrane space of the Mitochondria (called Cristae in Eukaryotes)

In Prokaryotes, it is done in the Plasma Membrane

18
Q

Explain the relationship between the ETC and Oxygen

A

The ETC does NOT make Oxygen directly. Rather, it helps the ‘e’ from food to reach Oxygen

19
Q

What is Chemiosmosis?

A

The Mitochondria couples the ETC + energy to make ATP

20
Q

Enzyme involved with ETC & Proton Gradient

A

ATP Synthase

21
Q

full name of NAD+

A

Nicotineamide adenine dinucleotide

22
Q

Substrate level phosphorylation

A

ATP synthesized during the processes before chemoiosmosis

this is done through direct transfer of a phosphate group from an organic substrate to ADP by an enzyme

23
Q

cytochromes

A

electron carriers between ubiquinone and oxygen (which is very electronegative)

24
Q

Proton-motive Force

A

H+ gradient that drives the proton gradient that makes ATP Synthase run
