Q

what are the stages in glycolysis?

A
  1. phosphorylation
  2. lysis
  3. oxidation
  4. substrate level phosphorylation
25
Q

what occurs in glycolysis (in detail!)

A
  1. glucose is phosphorylated using 2 ATP to form an unstable phosphorylated 6 C molecule
  2. this 6 C molecule splits by lysis to form 2 3C phosphorylated molecules (triose phosphate)
  3. each of these molecs undergoes oxidation
    • loses a H to NAD+ -> reduced to form NADH
    • (energy released is used to add Pi)
  4. enzyme transfers phosphate group from ea substrate molecule to ADP
    • this gives 4 ATP and 2 pyruvates
26
Q

how is pyruvate transported into mitochondria? (process and method)

A

active transport by transport protein

27
Q

after glycolysis, if there is O2, pyruvate is transported into the ______

A

matrix

28
Q

the link reaction occurs in the _______

A

matrix

29
Q

what occurs in the link reaction?

A
  1. decarboxylation of pyruvate -> releases 1 CO2 molecule per pyruvate
  2. oxidation of pyruvate -> in the process, NAD reduced to NADH
  3. attachment of coenzyme A to acetyl to form acetyl CoA
30
Q

what are the products of the link reaction?

A
  1. 2 NADH
  2. 2 acetyl CoA
  3. 2 CO2
31
Q

what are the products of one cycle of the krebs cycle?

A
  1. 2 CO2
  2. 3 NADH
  3. 1 FADH2
  4. 1 ATP

33
Q

what is the process involved when a 6C sugar is converted to 5C sugar?

A

oxidative decarboxylation

34
Q

what is formed when 5C is converted to 4C compound?

A

35
Q

what is the process involved in the conversion of 5C to 4C?

A

oxidative decarboxylation

36

Q

how many ATP is procduced by substrate level phosphorylation?

A

38
Q

in the krebs cycle,1 NADH and 1 FADH2 is produced by… (name the process)

A

the oxidation of the intermediate compounds

39
Q

what are the events that occur in the krebs cycle?

A
  1. acetyl CoA enters krebs cycle
  2. acetyl group combines w 4C sugar = forms 6C sugar
  3. 6C sugar is converted to 5C compound by oxidative decarboxylation -> releases CO2, reduces NAD+ to NADH
  4. 5C compound is then converted into 4C compound by oxidation decarboxylation -> releases CO2, reduces NAD+ to NADH
  5. 4C compound is rearranged to regenerate the 4C compound to close the cycle
    • results in formation of 1 ATP by substrate level phosphorylation
    • and 1 NADH and 1 FADH2 by oxidation of intermediate compounds

43
Q

what process is where most of the ATP is produced?

A

oxidative phosphorylation

44
Q

what is the role of NADH and FADH2?

A

they are electron carriers that carry electrons to the electron transport chain (ETC) on the cristae of the mitochondrion

45
Q

NADH and FADH2 _______ their electrons to the electron carriers

A

donates

46
Q

where are the electron carriers located?

A

the cristae

47
Q

how is energy released in the ETC?

A

electrons are passed from one electron carrier to another down the chain, releasing energy

48
Q

what is the function of energy release in ETC?

A
  • energy released is used to pump H+ ions from the matrix into the intermembrane space
  • to generate a proton gradient across the membrane
49
Q

why is it important that the inner membrane of mitochondria is impermeable?

A

H+ ions can only return to matrix through ATP synthase

50
Q

the diffusion of H+ ions down its concentration gradient through ATP synthase __________ energy used to…

A

releases, phosphorylate ADP

51
Q

how does the ETC function? (in detail) (4)

A
  1. NADH and FADH2 donate their e- to the electron carriers of the ETC
  2. electrons are passed from one electron carrier to another down the chain
  3. energy is released and used to pump H+ ions from the matrix into the intermembrane space
  4. this generates a proton gradient across the membrane (this can happen as the membrane is impermeable to ions)
52
Q

what is the energy released from the diffusion of H+ through ATP synthase used for?

A

used for the synthesis of ATP

53
Q

in chemiosmosis, what materials is ATP synthesised from?

A

ADP + Pi

54
Q

what is chemiosmosis? (short defin.)

A

the process whereby energy stored in the form of a proton gradient across a membrane is used to drive cellular work

55
Q

the process of converting ADP into ATP in chemiosmosis is called…

A

phosphorylation

56
Q

what is the function of oxygen in respiration?

A

oxygen removes hydrogen ions and electrons to maintain a high rate of oxidative phosphorylation

57
Q

why is the removal of H from NAD and FAD important?

A

it allows NAD+ and FAD to be recycled

58
Q

the max amount of ATP produced can either ranges from ___ to ___

A

36, 38

59
Q

what happens in chemiosmosis? (in detail) (2)

A
