what are the allosteric inhibitors (feedback inhibitors)

A

NADH and ATP

22
Q

what happens at the end of the krebs cycle?

A

glucose is oxidized

23
Q

where does the energy transport system take place?

A

the cristae of the mitochondria

24
Q

what is the purpose of the energy transport system?

A

to get high energy elecrons from NADH and pass them to O2

25

how is the energy transport system arranged?

A

arranged to each step is more electronegative then the last

26
Q

NADH contributed electrons to which complex

A

O2

31
Q

what is produced from complex 4?

A

water molecules

32
Q

what is ATP synthase?

A

using proton motive force to carry out chemiosmosis

33
Q

is there a higher concentration of protons in the inter membrane space or the mitochondrial matrix

A

intermembrane space

34
Q

is there a higher ph in the inter membrane space or the mitochondrial matrix

A

mitochondrial matrix

35

is there a more positive charge in the inter membrane space or the mitochondrial matrix

A

inter membrane space

36
Q

what percent efficiency of cellular respiration?

A

31%

37
Q

what does catabolic mean and how does it relate to cellular respiration?

A

something large broke down into small- proteins broken down into amino acids

38
Q

what does anabolic mean and how does it relate to cellular respiration?

A

something small into something larger- fatty acids into phospholipids

39
Q

what is the alternative to cellular respiration?

A

Fermentation

40
Q

how does fermentation work?

A

allows cells to regenerate NAD+ from pyruvate so glycolysis can continue

41
Q

what are the two kinds of fomentation?

A

lactic acid fermentation- works by directly turning pyruvate into lactate
alcohol fermentation- works by using Acetylaldehyde to turn pyruvate into ethanol
