cellular respiration Flashcards
Aerobic and anaerobic respiration
What is the equation of aerobic respiration
Glucose +oxygen —> carbon dioxide + water
site of aerobic respiration
Mitochondria
is aerobic respiration with or without oxygen
with oxygen
waste products of aerobic respiration?
carbon dioxide and water
how much ATP in aerobic respiration produced?
38 ATP
What products does aerobic respiration require?
glucose and oxygen
What is this stage called?
Glucose –> Pyruvate
Glycolysis
what is glycolysis
only stage in anaerobic respiration, produces 2ATP and occurs in cytoplasm
if no oxygen is avaliable it gets converted to lactic acid
What is this process called?
Pyruvate –> NADH + FADH
Krebs cycle
What is krebs cycle
occurs in mitochondria, lots of enzymes involved, produces 2ATP, and oxygen is required.
What is this process called?
NADH+FADH –> ATP
electron transport chain
what is the electron transport chain
produces 34ATP, occurs in the cristae of the mitochondria
joins O2 and H+ to form water as by-product.
what is the equation of anaerobic respiration?
glucose –>lactic acid +2ATP
is anaerobic respiration with or withour oxygen
without oxygen
waste products of anaerobic respiration
lactic acid
dangerous if too much builds up
how much ATP produced from anaerobic respiration
2ATP
what product does anaerobic respiration require
glucose
only partially breaks down glucose to produce a small amount of ATP
