AP Bio Chapter 8-9 Part 2 Flashcards
What happens in glycolysis
Glucose is split (6 carbons —> 2 pyruvate((consist of 3 carbons each also called pyruvic acid) ))
What electron carrying compound does glycolysis need , and how does it get it again
NAD+—>NADH
Oxygen processes will turn it back to NAD+
What amount of ATP is required by glycolysis and how much is made
2 required, 4 made best that can be done without oxygen
What percent of glucose’s energy is produced in glycolysis
2%
Anaerobic are 2%, what percent of glucose is used in aerobic processes
36%
What happens if u only have anaerobic processes
Not enough energy, you die
Where do pyruvates move to after glycolysis
Mitochondria
In glycolysis, what are the electron carrying compounds at first and how are they transformed.
2 NAD+ are reduced to 2NADH
What is the “fork in the road” after glycolysis
Where the aerobic/anaerobic processes must go
Body can burn ______________ for energy, but it will
Anything, occur later in the cycle
What are the two phases of glycolysis
Energy investment phase
Energy payoff phase
What is the net of glycolysis
2 pyruvate and 2H20
2 ATP
2NADH + 2H+
What’s substrate level phosphorylation
Description for when ATP is produced by enzymatic phosphate transfer from snigger organic phosphate
Substrate level phosphorylation is how ATP is produced in which processes
Glycolysis and citric acid cycle
What happens with electrons during fermentation
Electron gets dumped on pyruvate so NADH gets turned to NAD+ so glycolysis can continue. ANAEROBIC PROCESS
What are the two types of fermentation
Ethanol fermentation
Lactic acid fermentation
