Cellular and Chemical Energy - 3 Flashcards
equation for ATP
ADP + P + energy <—-> ATP
equation for cellular respiration
C6H12O6 + 6O2 –> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
glucose + oxygen –> carbon + water + energy
equation for photosynthesis
6CO2 + 6H2O + light –> C6H12O6 + 6O2
carbon + water + energy –> glucose + oxygen
photosynthesis
equation for Light Reaction
water + (light) –> (ATP & NADPH) + O2
(occurs in the Thylakoid)
photosynthesis
equation for the Calvin Cycle
CO2 + hydrogen (from water) –> glucose
Glucose —>
synthesis of organic molecules (carbs, lipids, proteins)
Anaerobic Respiration
1) without air/oxygen
2) involves 1 additional step : Fermentation
3) 2 ATP molecules, but faster
anearobic respiration
Fermentation
anaerobic release of energy from food
2 types:
- alcoholic
- lactic acid
used by small organisms
equation for Anearobic respiration overall
glucose –> lactic acid or alcohol + CO2
glycolysis
glucose –> pyruvate (2 ATP)
occurs in cytoplasm
pyruvate –>
lactic acid or alcohol + CO2 (to keep glycolysis going)
Aerobic Respiration
- with air
- 3 step process
- glycolysis
- Krebs Cycle
- Electron Transport Chain - generates 38 + ATP, but is slower
General formula for Aerobic respiration
glucose + oxygen –> carbon dioxide + water
Glycolysis (cytoplasm)
glucose –> pyruvate (2 ATP)
Krebs Cycle and ETC (mitochondrion)
pyruvate + O2 –> CO2 + H2O (up to 38 ATP)
