Unit 5: Bioenergetics Flashcards
(44 cards)
Glycolysis occurs in the __________
Cytoplasm
Glycolysis results in the splitting of a single __________ molecule into two __________ molecules
Glucose; pyruvate
Glycolysis produces ___ ATP
2
In glycolysis, hydrogens are used to form __________ from __________
NAHD; NAD+
The Krebs cycle happens in
[aerobic respiration/anaerobic respiration/photosynthesis]
Aerobic respiration
After glycolysis but before entering the Krebs cycle, each __________ molecule (3 carbons) is converted to __________
(2 carbons), producing more __________
(and __________ waste)
Pyruvate, acetyl-CoA, NADH, CO2
The Krebs cycle produces more __________
waste, more __________, and another hydrogen carrier called __________
CO2, NADH, FADH2
During and just before the Krebs cycle, 3 molecules of __________ are released for each pyruvate…
CO2
During the Electron Transport Chain, electrons carried by __________ and __________ are used to power the pumping of __________ ions across the inner __________ membrane
NADH; FADH2; hydrogen; mitochondrial
During the ETC, the pumping of hydrogen ions creates a concentration gradient of __________
H+
During the ETC, H+ diffuses back into the inner mitochondrion, powering ATP synthase, creating about ___ ATP per original glucose
34
In the ETC, __________ accepts electrons once they’ve been used, preventing the system from backing up- it is then converted to H2O and released
Oxygen
A single glucose molecule can create up to ___ ATP
38
Anaerobic respiration produces much [more/less] ATP than aerobic
Less
In anaerobic respiration (AKA fermentation), cells produce just ___ ATP and [do/do not] use oxygen
2; do not
