Glucose Splitting
Glycolysis can proceed anaerobically..
Without oxygen
The 4 steps to aerobic Cellular Respiration..
Glycolysis, Pyruvate Oxidation, Kreb’s cycle, Chemiosmosis/electron transfer change
TWO ATP are used to break … into TWO PGAL
Break glucose in half to form TWO PGAL
Once PGAL is broken into 2, it is then converted to..
Pyruvate
When PGAL becomes Pyruvate, _ ATP are synthesized and _ NAD are reduced to NADH
4 ATP are synthesized and 2 NAD are reduced to NADH
Pyruvate oxidation occurs in the..
Cytoplasm
What does pyruvate need to react?
Sufficient amount of O2 (oxygen)
Pyruvate undergoes how many reactions before moving into the Kreb cycle?
1 reaction
Pyruvate loses a carbon and bonds with a Coenzyme A (COA) molecule, producing Ace..
Acetyl COA and CO2

The main purpose of the Kreb Cycle is to P..
produce more high energy compounds through reduction (NADH and FADH2)
Chemiosmosis / electron transport chain occurs in the M..
MItochondria, inner membrane
What is produced in Chemiosmosis?
ATP
In chemiosmosis, high energy electrons are..
passed down from carrier to carrier
In chemiosmosis, as electrons are passed down, it releases..
energy
when energy are released during the passing of electrons, this energy is used to pump H..
Hydrogen ions from Matrix to inter-membrane space.
Hydrogen goes where after entering ATP synthase and causing ADP + P to form ATP?
Diffuse back to Matrix
After H entering the ATP synthase, O2 is the final electron acceptor in the chain and accepts electrons and H to form..
water
