Cell Energy Flashcards
what is the chemical equation for cell respiration
what are the two main parts of cell respiration
aerobic
and
anerobic
where does the anaerobic portion of cell respiration occur
cytoplasm
where does the aerobic portion of cell respiration occur
mitochondria
In what stage is glucose used
glycolysis
in what stage is oxygen used
electron transport chain
(oxidative phosphorylation)
when is most of the ATP created
electron transport chain
(oxidative phosphorylation)
when is the carbon dioxide created
Kreb’s cycle
anaerobic respiration includes
glycolysis
and
fermentation
aerobic respiration includes
Kreb’s cycle
and
Electron Transport Chain
where does glycolysis take place
cytoplasm
what does glycolysis do
breaks glucose into pyruvic acid (pyruvate)
does glycolysis require oxygen
no
what is phosphorylation
this is the addition of a phosphate group to ADP to make ATP
how many ATPs are used to start glycolysis
2
how many ATPs are made in glycolysis
4
what is the net gain of ATP for glycolysis
2
how many pyruvic acids are created from glycolysis
2
how many NADH molecules are created in glycolysis
2
what is the function of NADH
carry high energy electrons
when does fermentation occur
if no oxygen is present
where does fermentation occur
in the cytoplasm
how many ATP does fermentation produce
2
what type of fermentation occurs in humans and some bacteria
lactic acid
