111
Q

What is the first step of cellular respiration?

A

Glycolysis

112
Q

What is glycolysis?

A

A chemical reaction in which a small amount of energy is released from a glucose molecule

113
Q

Where does glycolysis occur?

A

The cell’s cytoplasm

114
Q

Is glycolysis aerobic, or anaerobic?

A

Anaerobic

115
Q

What breaks down glucose during glycolysis?

A

Two molecules of pyruvic acid

116
Q

What is the second stage of cellular respiration?

A

Krebs cycle

117
Q

Why does the Krebs cycle occur?

A

At the end of glycolysis, most of the energy stored in a glucose molecule is unavailable because it is locked in the bonds of the pyruvic acid molecules

118
Q

What does the Krebs cycle do?

A

It breaks down pyruvic acid, produces carbon dioxide and ATP

119
Q

Where does the Krebs cycle occur?

A

Mitochondria

120
Q

What regulates the Krebs cycle?

A

Enzymes

121
Q

What happens during the Krebs cycle?

A

The pyruvic acid formed by glycolysis enters the mitochondria, as the pyruvic acid is broken down, carbon dioxide and two molecules of ATP are released.

122
Q

Due to which cycle do we breathe out carbon dioxide?

A

Krebs cycle

123
Q

What happens at the close end of the Krebs cycle?

A

High energy molecules that are carried in the form of bonded hydrogen atoms to two carrier molecules, FAD and NAD

124
Q

What do the carrier molecules FAD and NAD form at the end of the Krebs cycle?

A

FADH and NADH

2

125
Q

What is the next stage of cellular respiration after the Krebs cycle?

A

Electron transport

126
Q

What is electron transport?

A

A series of reactions that produce ATP from NADH and FADH
2
molecules from the Krebs cycle

127
Q

What does electron transport reactions depend on?

A

Certain proteins located on the inner membranes of the mitochondria

128
Q

What is the series of proteins located on the inner membranes of the mitochondria called?

A

Electron transport chain

129
Q

What happens during electron transport?

A

Electrons of NADH and FADH pass from one protein to another.
2
An enzyme At the end of the electron transport chain combines the electrons with the hydrogen ions and oxygen to form water, which creates 32-34 molecules of ATP

130
Q

Summarize the process of cellular respiration

A

Glycolysis: Glucose to Pyruvic acid
Krebs cycle: Pyruvic acid to NADH and FADH
2
Electron transport chain:CO +H O+36-38 ATP

131
Q

What is the name of a process that does not require oxygen?

A

132
Q

What is fermentation?

A

A process that enables cells to produce energy in the absence of oxygen

133
Q

What are two important types of fermentation

A

Lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation

134
Q

How many molecules of ATP are produced from a molecule of glucose during anaerobic respiration during glycolysis?

A

2

135
Q

What happens during lactic acid fermentation?

A

An enzyme converts pyruvic acid into a compound called lactic acid.

Q

Why does our bodies sometimes do lactic acid fermentation?

A

Our muscles need more ATP during exercise, and if the muscles do not have enough oxygen, they produce a form of lactic acid called lactate
