34
Q

why does a cell go to the trouble of ripping electrons off of glucose, transferring them to electron carriers, and passing them through an electron transport chain in a long series of redox reaction?

A

to get energy out of that glucose molecule

35
Q

four stages of cellular respiration

A

glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation

36
Q

a six-carbon sugar undergoes a series of chemical transformations. In the end, it gets converted into two molecules of pyruvate, a three- carbon organic molecule. ATP is made, and NAD+ is converted to NADH.

A

Glycolysis

37
Q

Each pyruvate from glycolysis goes into the mitochondrial matrix, the innermost compartment of mitochondria. It is converted into a two-carbon molecule bound to Coenzyme A, known as acetyl CoA. Carbon dioxide is released and NADH is generated.

A

Pyruvate oxidation

38
Q

The acetyl CoA made in the last step combines with a four-carbon molecule and goes through a cycle of reactions, ultimately regenerating the four-carbon starting molecule. ATP, NADH2 and FADH2 are produces, and carbon dioxide is released.

A

Citric Acid Cycle

39
Q

Glycolysis can take place without oxygen in a process called ___________

A

Fermentation

40
Q

What stages of cellular respiration only uses oxygen directly?

A

oxidative phosphorylation

41
Q

Series of proteins and organic molecules found in the inner membrane of the mitochondria.

A

Electron Transport Chain

42
Q

Reduced electron carriers from other steps of cellular respiration transfer their electrons to molecules near the beginning of the transport chain. In the process, they turn back into NAD+ and FAD, which can be reused in other steps of cellular respiration.

A

Delivery of Electrons by NADH and FADH2

43
Q

As electrons are passed down the chain, they move from a higher to a lower energy level, releasing energy. Some of the energy is used to pump H+ ions, moving them out of the matrix and into the intermembrane space. This pumping establishes an electrochemical gradient.

A

Electron transfer and proton pumping

44
Q

At the end of the electron transport chain, electrons are transferred to molecular oxygen which splits in half and takes up H+ to form water.

A

Splitting of oxygen to form water

45
Q

As H+ ions flow down their gradient and back into the matrix, they pass through an enzyme called ATP synthase, which harness the flow of protons to synthesize ATP.

A

Gradient-driven synthesis of ATP

46
Q

This is very good at donating electrons in redox reactions, so it can transfer its electrons directly to complex I, turning back into NAD+.

A

NADH

47
Q

This is not as good at donating electrons as NADH, so it cannot transfer its electrons to complex I.

A

FADH2

48
Q

mobile electron carrier

A

ubiquinone (Q)

49
Q

It carries the electrons to complex IV, where final batch of H+ ions is pumped across the membrane. And this is also a mobile carrier.

A

cytochrome C (cyt C)

50
Q

What does electron transport chain do for the cell?

A
  • regenerates electron carriers
  • makes a proton gradient
51
Q

The gradient is sometimes called the _____________, and you can think as a form of stored energy , kind of like a battery.

A

proton-motive force

52
Q

membrane-spanning protein

A

ATP synthase

53
Q
  • Energy from a proton gradient is used to make ATP, is called ___________.
  • it can also refer to any process in which energy stored in a proton gradient is used to work.
A

chemiosmosis

54
Q

What would happen to the energy stored in the proton gradient if it weren’t used to synthesize ATP or do other cellular work?

A

It would be released as heat, and interestingly enough, some types of cells deliberately use the proton gradient for heat generation rather than ATP synthesis.

55
Q

In the brown fat cells, ______________ are produced and inserted into the inner mitochondrial membrane

A

uncoupling proteins

56
Q

How many ATP do we get per glucose in cellular respiration?

A

maximum ATP yield for a molecule of glucose is around 30-32 ATP

57
Q

Where does the figure of 30-32 ATP come from?

A

two net ATP from glycolysis, two ATP from citric acid cycle, and the remaining ATP come from oxidative phosphorylation

58
Q

Similar to aerobic cellular respiration in that electrons extracted from a fuel molecule are passed through an electron transport chain, driving ATP text synthesis

A

Anaerobic cellular respiration

59
Q

What kinds of organisms use anaerobic cellular respiration?

A

Some prokaryotes-bacteria and archaea- that live in low-oxygen environments

60
Q

Another anaerobic pathway for breaking down glucose, one that’s performed by many types of organisms and cells

A
