A

Splitting glucose in the cytoplasm into two molecules of pyruvic acid

20
Q

A

One glucose and two ATP

21
Q

Things Made During Glycolysis

A

2 NADH, 4 ATP, 2 H2O, 2 molecules of pyruvic acid

22

Yeast and Bacteria Fermentation

A

Makes ethyl alcohol

24

Makes lactic acid

25
Q

Facultative Anaerobes

A

Switch hitters, do both aerobic and anaerobic respiration (ex. yeast)

26
Q

Obligate/Strict Anaerobes

A

They ONLY do anaerobic respiration

27
Q

Steps of Anaerobic Respiration

A
  1. glycolysis
  2. fermentation
28
Q

Pyruvic Acid Breakdown

A

The pyruvic acid goes into the mitochondria’s intermembrane space, a CO2 gets taken out, an H gets taken away, a coenzyme a gets added, it becomes acetyl CoA

29
Q

Acetyl CoA

A

One of the end products of pyruvic acid breakdown

30
Q

End Products of Pyruvic Acid Breakdown (per pyruvic acid)

A

1 NADH, 1 CO2, 1 Acetyl CoA

31
Q

Krebs Cycle

A

A cycle in the matrix with the goal to create as many NADH’s and FADH’s as possible

32
Q

Outer Membrane

A

The outermost membrane of the mitochindria

33
Q

Intermembrane Space

A

The space in the mitochondria in between the two membranes

34
Q

Inner Membrane

A

The innermost membrane of the mitochondria (very foldey)

35
Q

Matrix

A

The innermost part of the mitochondria

36
Q

The Thing That Combines with Acetyl CoA at the Beginning of the Krebs Cycle

A

Oxaloacetate

37
Q

The Thing That Acetyl CoA and Oxaloacetate turn into in the Krebs Cycle

A

Citrate

38
Q

Things made in One Krebs Cycle Turn

A

3 NADH, 1 FADH, 1 ATP, 2 CO2 (1 GTP)

39
Q

Cristae

A

The fold in the inner membrane

40
Q

Electron Transport Chain

A

Electron hot potato where negatively charged electrons get transported through the inner membrane by proteins and lose energy (energy is used for chemiosmosis)

41
Q

Chemiosmosis

A

H+’s move to create a concentration gradient and then go through ATP synthase to make ATP and then combine with oxygen at the end to form H2O

42
Q

Last Reciever of H in ETC

A

Oxygen

43
Q

End Products of Chemiosmosis and ETC

A

32 ATP, 6 H2O
