17
Q

what can be consumed as fuel

A

18
Q

What does cellular respiration focus on in the book

A

Aerobic

19
Q

Breakdown of glucose is called what

A

Exergonic

20
Q

what does this stand for /\G ?

A

Amount of energy released into the conversion of reactants of products

21
Q

what does negative /\G stand for ?

A

Products store less energy than the reactants.

22
Q

What reaction can happen spontaneously ?

A

negative /\G

23
Q

What is catabolism

A

Process of transferring fuels ( glucose to ATP )

24
Q

Oxidation-reduction reactions are also known as what

A

Electron transfers

25
Q

What is Oxidation

A

loss of electrons from one substance

26
Q

What is Reduction

A

addition of electrons to another substance

27
Q

Redox reactions is

A

Oxidation and Reduction

28
Q

in oxidation of organic fuel molecules during cellular respiration glucose is what and oxygen is what

A

Oxidised and reduced

29
Q

What are ideal fuels and why

A

organic molecules with abundance of hydrogen

Their bonds are ‘hilltop’ electrons are released as they fall down the energy gradient during transfer to oxygen

30
Q

What is the main take-away in respiration of oxidation of organic fuel molecules during cellular respiration

A

In respiration, oxidation of glucose transfers electrons to lower energy state, releasing energy that becomes available for ATP Synthesis

31
Q

what are the redox reaction steps

A
32
Q

what are the stages of cellular respiration

A
  1. Glycolysis, 2. Pyruvate Oxidation and Citric Acid cycle/Kerb Cycle, 3. Oxidative phosphorylation
