Cellular Respiration Flashcards
What does Cellular Respiration do ?
It breaks down glucose molecule in order and banks their energy in ATP
What are the aerobic processes in Cellular Respiration ?
Krebs cycle (citric acid cycle) ETC
TRUE OR FALSE:
the equation for Cellular Respiration is :
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.
False
TRUE OR FALSE:
ETC produces the least amount of ATP
False
Where does the Krebs cycle occur ?
Mitochondrial Matrix
what is the first stage of Cellular Respiration ?
Glycolysis
What is the opposite of Cellular Respiration ?
Photosynthesis
What are the products of Cellular Respiration ?
- CO2
- H2O
- A net gain of up to 38 ATP for every glucose molecule
TRUE OR FALSE :
glycolysis is an anaerobic process
True
What happens if oxygen is not present during Cellular Respiration ?
Fermentation
When the pyruvate is broken down it is bonded with what enzyme before entering the Krebs cycle
Coenzyme A (CoA)
