Cellular Respiration Flashcards
what process can be carried out by a mature red blood cell ?
Glycolysis
during respiration most ATP is produced when…
hydrogen ions are passed through the membrane proteins ATP synthase
during glycolysis, dehydrogenase enzymes catalyse the…
transfer of hydrogen ions to NAD
length of mitochondria
C 4 micrometers
function and location of dehydrogenase…
removed from substrate ELECTRONS and location CITRIC ACID CYCLE
not true about electrons ?
they are involved in ATP synthesis
where does glycolysis occurs occur ?
cytoplasm
what happens in energy investment phase of glycolysis ?
(2) ATP molecules are used
explain the importance of the regeneration of NAD for glycolysis ?
> NAD allows ATP production during glycolysis
NDA carries hydrogen ions
why do muscle cells produce lactic acid during vigorous exercise?
cause no oxygen reaches the muscle cells
state conclusion that can be drawn from the results of this
running produces the highest respiration rate
identify information which confirms that this is an energy investment phase of glycolysis..
ATP is put into the reaction
suggest how the binding of these ions leads to an increase in enzyme activity
it changes shape of the active site to suit the substrate molecule
phosphorylation
the transfer of phosphate from ATP
reversible reaction to do with fructose 6-phosphate
where there has been a build up concentration of fructose- 6 - phosphate
