✅12 - Respiration Flashcards
What are the two types of respiration?
Aerobic and Anaerobic
What are the similarities between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
Both produce ATP
Both involve glycolysis
What does glycolysis make?
Pyruvate from glucose
Where does glycolysis occur?
In the cytoplasm
What is used to turn glucose into glucose phosphate?
ATP
What is used to turn glucose phosphate into hexose bisphosphate?
ATP
What is used to turn 2x triose phosphate into 2x pyruvate?
4ADP + 4Pi and 2NAD
How are the pyruvate moved into the mitochondria?
By active transport
What is hexose bisphosphate split into?
2x triose phosphate
Which process occurs in anaerobic respiration?
Glycolysis
What do animals/bacteria produce in anaerobic respiration?
Lactate
What do plants/yeast produce in anareobic respiration?
Ethanol
Which coenzyme is used in the link reaction?
Co enzyme A
How much ATP is formed in the link reaction?
None
What is pyruvate converted to in the link reaction?
Acetate
What does acetyl coA go into?
The Krebs cycle
What does acetyl coA combine with?
4C oxoloacetate
What is formed from acetyl coA and oxoloacetate?
6C citrate
What is used to turn the 6C compound into the 5C compound?
NAD
What is the process of turning the 6C into the 5C called?
Decarboxylation
What is used to turn the 5C compound into a 4C compound?
2x NAD, ADP + Pi, FAD
How is ATP produced in the Krebs cycle?
By the direct transfer of a phosphate group from an intermediate compound to ADP
What is substrate level phosphorylation?
When a phosphate group is directly transferred from one molecule to another
Where does oxidative phosphorylation occur?
In the intermembrane space of the mitochondria
