4 - Cellular Respiration Flashcards
How does energy flow in the biosphere?
Radiant energy becomes chemical energy (aka ATP). ATP is stored in organic compounds’ chains
What is the photosynthetic reaction?
6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight –> C6H12O6 + 6CO2
Differentiate physical/mechanical digestion and chemical digestion
Physical: break down physically; Chemical: break down into basic structural units
What is metabolism
All chemical reactions in cells
What are the 2 kinds of metabolism
Anabolic (building up) and (catabolic)
Is photosynthesis an anabolic or a catabolic reaction?
Anabolic
Define cellular respiration
Release of energy by breaking down food into simpler substances
What are the stages of cellular respiration
Glycolysis
Acetyl-CoA formation
Krebs Cycle/Citric Acid Cycle
Electron Transport Chain
Which stages have substrate-level phosphorylation
Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle/Citric Acid Cycle
Which stage/s have oxidative phosphorylation
ETC
How much net ATP is produced in each stage?
2, 0, 2, 34
Differentiate an oxidation reaction and a reduction reaction
Oxidation: loss of H+ & e-; Reduction: gaining of H+ & e-
GEROA - Gains Electrons Reduction Oxidizing Agent
LEORA - Loses Electrons Oxidation Reducing Agent
Where does glycolysis occur?
Cytoplasm
Is glycolysis aerobic/anaerobic
Anaerobic
What basically happens in glycolysis
Glyco-lysis
Glucose (+ other 6-carbon monosaccharides) –> 2 mol pyruvic acid (3-carbon)
What are the 2 phases of glycolysis
Energy investment phase
Energy payoff phase?
What is the gross ATP in glycolysis? Net ATP?
Gross: 4
Net: 2 (2 needed for payoff kasi)
What does it mean when there is -kinase
Phosphorylation
What does isomerase mean?
Convert to isomers
What processes occur in the 10 phases of glycolysis
- phosphorylation
- Isomers
- Phosphorylation
- Split into 2 3-carbon molecules na isomers
- Other phosphate + isomerase = other product of 4
- Oxidation, then reduction
- Substrate level phosphorylation
- P from 3 goes to second C
- Dehydration
- Substrate-level phosphoyrlation
Which numbers have ATP involved
- Used ATP
7.10. Produced 2 ATP each
Basically umutang siya
- Used ATP
What are all the products of glycolysis?
2 net ATP, 4 gross ATP
2 NADH
2 H2O (waste, released through piss/sweat)
What is the story of acetyl-coA formation
2 pyruvic acids go in mitochondrion, but it cannot go in unless it becomes acetyl coa
What are the 3 processes in acetyl-coA formation
- Carboxylation (hello co2)
- Redox (NAD+ –> NADH)
- Coenzyme A (coA) is attached to acetyl group
