cellular respiration Flashcards
glycolysis
Occurs in the cytoplasm
Does not need oxygen
krebs cycle
Occurs in the mitochondrial
matrix
Requires oxygen
Electron Transport Chain
Occurs on the inner membrane of the mitochondria
Requires oxygen
what are the products of glycolysis
atp and nadh
what is the location of glycolysis
cytosol
what is the purpose of glycolysis
splits glucose in half to form 2 pyruvate molecules
what is the products of citric acid/krebs cycle
atp, nadh & fadh2, and co2
what is the location of citric acid/krebs cycle
mitochondrial matrix
what is the purpose of citric acid/krebs cycle
creates nadh & fadh
what are the results of electron transport chain (etc)
O binds with H to become water, a lot of atp is made
location of electron transport chain
Inner Mitochondrial Membrane
what does electron transport chain use
nadh and fadh
which step creates the most atp
electron transport chain
aerobic respiration
Requires Oxygen, goes through the Krebs & ETC (in the mitochondria)
Anaerobic respiration
occurs where there is a lack of oxygen, occurs in the cytosol (does not go into the mitochondria)
