1- Mitochondria structure Flashcards
name the two types of metabolic reactions
Anabolic and Catabolic
define an anabolic reaction
building large molecules from smaller ones, requiring energy
define catabolic reactions
breaking large molecules into smaller molecules releasing energy
name the four stages of respiration
- glycolysis
- link reaction
- krebs cycle
- oxidative phosphorylation
describe the membrane of the matrix
double membrane, inner one folded to form cristae
what is aerobic respiration?
splitting glucose to release energy and Co2 as a waste product
where does glycolysis take place
cytoplasm of cell
where does link reaction take place
matrix of mitochondria
where does Krebs cycle take place
matrix of mitochondria
where are the electron transport chains found in respiration?
proteins found in the critstae of mitochondria
