Question 1

Cellular Respiration

Answer 1

The process by which cells in plants and animals break down sugar and turn it into energy

Question 2

ATP
(Adenosine Triphosphate)

Answer 2

Energy source available to the cells

Question 3

Energy

Answer 3

The ability to do work.

Question 4

Glucose

Answer 4

The biggest source of energy. It is too big to get into the mitochondria, so it must first be broken down

Question 5

Aerobic Respiration

Answer 5

Cellular Respiration that requires oxygen

Question 6

Anaerobic Respiration

Answer 6

Cellular respiration that occurs in the absence of oxygen

Question 7

Fermentation

Answer 7

Done by yeast and bacteria

Question 8

Lactic Acid

Answer 8

Done by animals (sore muscles)

Question 9

Cellular Respiration equation

Answer 9

C2H12O6 + O2 = CO2 + H2O

Question 10

Glycolysis

Answer 10

The process of breaking down glucose molecules into pyruvic acid.

Question 11

Citric Acid Cycle (Kreb’s Cycle)

Answer 11

A series of chemical reactions that creates electrons and NADH+ which are necessary for the next step.

Question 12

Electron Transport Chain

Answer 12

O2 binds with H+ to create H2O

Question 13

Chemiosmosis

Answer 13

H+ Ions enter the inner cristae of the mitochondria using ATP synthase

Question 14

what’s the chemical formula for glucose?

Answer 14

C6 H12 O6
