Cellular Respiration

Question 1

Glycolysis

Answer 1

Glucose is partially broken down and a modest amount of energy is released.

Question 2

Link Step

Answer 2

Pyruvate is converted to Acetyl-CoA and CO2

Question 3

Krebs Cycle

Answer 3

Acetyl-CoA is broken down, forms energy carriers

Question 4

Electron Transport Chain

Answer 4

Electron carriers release high energy e- to the ETC to make ATP.

Question 5

Glucose is…

Answer 5

Oxidized

Question 6

O2 is….

Answer 6

Reduced

Question 7

Some bacteria run the Krebs cycle in reverse

Answer 7

Generation of organic molecules, pyruvate can be modified to form alanine. Acetyl-CoA cna make acetate, that is the staring point for lipid synthesis

Question 8

Net Gain of Glycolysis

Answer 8

2 ATP and 2 NADH

Question 9

Total Products of Krebs cycle

Answer 9

2 ATP, 6 NADH, and 2 FADH2 per molecule of glucose.

Question 10

Complete Oxidation of glucose makes

Answer 10

32 molecules of ATP

Question 11

Lactic Acid Fermentation

Answer 11

Does not require oxygen, pyruvate will enter this cycle instead of the Krebs. pH in muscles decreases when lactic acid builds up.

Question 12

Alcohol fermentation

Answer 12

Occurs in plants and fungi in the absence of oxygen.

Question 13

Glycogen

Answer 13

Large branched glucose chains attach to central protein (liver). Can be used during glucose deprivation

Question 14

B-oxidation

Answer 14

Fatty Acids are cut up into 2C fragments and feeds intot he Acetyl-CoA step.
