5.6 Respiration Flashcards
Why is ATP useful?
- Energy is released in small, usable amounts.
- Soluble
- Involves a single step reaction to release energy.
What is the word equation for respiration?
Oxygen + glucose -> carbon dioxide + water + ATP.
What is the symbol equation for respiration?
6O2 + C6H12O6 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O.
What are the four stages of respiration?
- Glycolysis
- Link reaction
- Krebs Cycle
- Electron Transport Chain
Define substrate level phosphorylation.
- ATP generated directly through respiration.
Where does substrate level phosphorylation take place?
- Glycolysis and Krebs Cycle.
Define oxidative phosphorylation.
- ATP generated from the chemical energy released when a coenzyme has been reduced.
Where does oxidative phosphorylation occur?
- ETC.
Why do organisms need ATP?
- Protein synthesis
- Active Transport
- Cell maintenance, repair and division.
What is the importance of cytochrome c?
- Amino acid sequence used to classify organisms.
