anaerobic respiration Flashcards
alcohol fermentation
conversion of pyruvate to CO2 and ethanol
lactic acid fermentation
production of lactic acid
what is the role of obligate anaerobe
to convert ATP to NADH to keep glycolysis going
what do endospores survive
long exposure to air and O2
tell the difference between fast and slow twitch fibres
Slow : contract and fatigue more slowly long distance runners have more contain more myoglobin and ATPase more mitochondria more succinct DH enzyme cannot increase through exercise
Fast: sprinters contain more lactase dehydrogenase to produce ATP fats can increase through exercise fewer mitochondria fast glycolytic
what is gluconeogenesis
synthesis of glucose from non carbohydrate precursor
so, from pyruvate
where most of the potential energy remains
in the bonds of fermented products
what is the products of Yeats metabolism
2 ATP, 2 H2O, 2 CO2, 2 Ethanol
what is the final products of lactic acid fermentation
2 lactase, 2 ATP and 2 waters
how vegetative cells are killed
by exposure to oxygen but there endospores are able to survive
what can form lactic acid
muscle cytosol and some bacteria
