Q

FAD/FADH

A

flavin adenine dinucleotide, coenzyme (carries 2 electrons H2), derived from riboflann

17
Q

riboflann

A

vitamin B3

18
Q

order of 4 processes in cellular respiration

A
  1. glycolysis
  2. pyruvate oxidation
  3. Kreb’s Cycle / citric acid cycle
  4. electron transport chain
19
Q

what goes into glycolysis

A

glucose, 2 NAD, 2 ATP

20
Q

what comes out of glycolysis

A

pyruvic acid, 2 NADH (both acid and nad stay in system), 4 ATP

21
Q

whats special about glycolysis

A

occurs in cytosol; only spot where energy goes in, is spent, and then made; very few outputs, all things in glycolysis stay in body

22
Q

what goes in to pyruvate oxidation

A

2 pyruvic acid, NAD+

23
Q

what comes out of pyruvate oxidation

A

2 acetyl coA, 2 CO2, 2 NADH

24
Q

what goes in to Krebs Cycle

A

2 acetyl coA, 6NAD+, 2FAD+

25
Q

what comes out of Krebs Cycle

A

4CO2, 6NADH, 2 FADH2, 2ATP

26
Q

facts about Krebs Cycle

A

by the end of krebs all glucose is broken down, carbons released, but not a lot of ATP has been produced (cell resp 1/2 done)

27
Q

what goes into ETC

A

NADH, FADH2, 6O2, ADP + P

28
Q

what comes out of ETC

A

NAD+, FAD+, h2o, 24 ATP / glucose molecules

29
Q

anaerobic

A

can survive w/o O2
(glycolysis, fermentation)

30
Q

aerobic

A

needs O2
(pyruvate, Krebs, ETC)

31
Q

2 ways cells can make ATP w/o O2

A

Anerobic Cellular Respiration and Fermentation

32
Q

anaerobic cell respi

A

in some bacteria and archea that live in low O2 environments, use electron receptors that don’t need o2

33
Q

fermentation

A

maintains glycolysis as the ATP producing process, converts NADH to NAD to keep glycolysis going

34
Q

what does fermentation create

A

lactic acid, ethanol CO2, acetic acid

35
Q

photosynthesis

A

converts light energy into chemical energy
(light, co2, h2o – glucose and 6o2)

36
Q

thylakoid

A

membraneous disk

37
Q

granum

A

stack of thylakoids

38
Q

lumen

A

space inside thylakoids

39
Q

stroma

A

solution surrounding thylakoids
