FINAL: unit 2 Flashcards
cellular respiration
converts chemical energy into cellular energy
cellular respiration equation
glucose + oxygen –> water + carbon dioxide + ATP
what kind of cells can do cellular respiration?
aerobic prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells
what are the four parts of cellular respiration?
- glycolysis
- pyruvate processing
- citric acid cycle
- electron transport chain
where does glycolysis occur in eukaryotic cells?
cytosol
where does glycolysis occur in prokarytoic cells?
cytosol
does glycolysis require oxygen?
no
inputs of glycolysis
glucose
NAD+
ADP
ATP
outputs of glycolysis
pyruvate
NADH
ATP
what parts of cellular respiration require oxygen?
pyruvate processing, citric acid cycle and electron transport chain
where does pyruvate processing occur in eukaryotes?
mitochondrial matrix
inputs of pyruvate processing
pyruvate
NAD+
coenzyme A
outputs of pyruvate processing
acetyl CoA
NADH
CO2
how is acetyl CoA formed during pyruvate processing?
from pyruvate and coenzyme A
how is CO2 formed during pyruvate processing?
comes from the carboxyl group released by pyruvate
where does the citric acid cycle occur in eukaryotes?
mitochondria
inputs of citric acid cycle

ATP
CO2
how is CO2 formed in the citric acid cycle?
from acetyl CoA
where do NADH and FADH go after citric acid cycle?
act as electron carriers in the electron transport chain
where does the electron transport chain occur in eukaryotes?
inner mitochondrial membrane

what is ATP synthase?
it creates ATP through oxidative phosphorylation
