Cellular Respiration 1

Question 0

What is the purpose of cellular respiration?

Answer 0

The purpose of cellular respiration is to convert glucose into ATP.

Question 1

This is the equation for cellular respiration.

Answer 1

C6H12O6 + 6O2 –> 6CO2 + 6H2O & ATP

Question 2

Aerobic Respiration requires this gas.

Answer 2

O2 is required for aerobic respiration.

Question 3

This is where glycolysis occurs in the cell.

Answer 3

Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm.

Question 4

True or False: Glycolysis requires O2.

Answer 4

False: Glycolysis does NOT require O2.

Question 5

These are what NAD+ transports.

Answer 5

NAD+ transports 2 e- and 1 H+.

Question 6

This molecule begins glycolysis.

Answer 6

Glucose begins glycolysis.

Question 7

These are the products of glycolysis.

Answer 7

Glycolysis produces:
2 ADP
2 NADH
4 ATP
2 Pyruvate

Question 8

How many ATP molecules does glycolysis burn?

Answer 8

Glycolysis burns 2 ATP molecules.

Question 9

How many ATP molecules does glycolysis produce?

Answer 9

Glycolysis produces 4 ATP.

Question 10

What is the net gain of ATP for glycolysis?

Answer 10

Because it burns two to get four, there is only a NET gain of 2 ATP molecules in glycolysis.

Question 11

This is the electron carrier PRODUCED by glycolysis.

Answer 11

NADH is produced by glycolysis.

Question 12

This is where NADH goes after being produced in glycolysis.

Answer 12

NADH goes to the Electron Transport Chain to help produce ATP.

Question 13

This is the process that follows glycolysis if O2 is NOT available.

Answer 13

Anerobic respiration (Fermentation) follows glycolysis if NO O2 is available.

Question 14

True or False: Fermentation produces ATP.

Answer 14

False: fermentation does NOT produce ATP.

Question 15

These are the 2 types of fermentation.

Answer 15

Alcoholic Fermentation

Lactic Acid Fermentation

Question 16

This is the purpose (or benefit) of Fermentation.

Answer 16

The purpose of fermentation is to provide NAD+ so glycolysis can continue making a little bit of ATP to get you by until O2 is available.

Question 17

These are the type of organisms that carry out Alcoholic Fermentation.

Answer 17

Yeast and a few other microorganisms

Question 18

These are the REACTANTS of fermentation.

Answer 18

NADH and Pyruvate

Question 19

Humans do this type of fermentation.

Answer 19

Lactic Acid Fermentation

Question 20

These are the THREE products of alcohol fermentation.

Answer 20

NAD+
CO2
ethyl alcohol

Question 21

These are the 2 products of lactic acid fermentation.

Answer 21

NAD+

Lactic Acid

Question 22

True or False: Aerobic respiration begins with glycolysis.

Answer 22

True. It starts with glycolysis in the cytoplasm and if O2 is available, it completes the process in the mitochondria.

Question 23

What are the 3 steps of AEROBIC respiration, following glycolysis?

Answer 23

Aerobic respiration includes Converting Pyruvate, Krebs Cycle, and ETC.

Question 24

If oxygen IS available after glycolysis, what pathway do the products take?

Answer 24

Pyruvate & NADH enter the aerobic pathway if oxygen IS available.

Question 25

Where do the 3 processes of Aerobic respiration occur in the cell?

Answer 25

Aerobic respiration occurs in the mitochondria.

Question 26

What is the purpose (or benefit) of aerobic respiration?

Answer 26

Aerobic respiration makes LOTS of ATP!
