Q

Prevatory Phase glycolysis

A
  • 2 ATP used
  • Begins with Glucose (6C Compound)
17
Q

Generated phase

A
  • 4 ATP made
  • 4 NADH made
  • End with 2 Pyruvic Acid (3C Compound)
  • Pyruvate is transferred to mitochondria
18
Q

Net Gain of ATP in Glycolysis

A

2 ATP, 4 made 2 used

19
Q

NADH production in Glycolysis

A

NADH carry high-energy electrons to the electron transport chain

20
Q

Key event before Krebs Cycle

A

Pyruvic acid broke down into CO2 in a series of energy-releasing reactions

21
Q

What is the 2ATP made from Glycolysis used for?

A
  • Metabolism
  • Mechanical movement
  • Active Transport
22
Q

Pyruvic Acid Oxidation

A

Glucose –> (releases NADH and 2 ATP) —> 2 Pyruvic Acids (get moved to mitochondria) —> NADH —-> Loses CO2 —-> Acetate

  • ## One carbon is removed when pyruvic acid forms into acetate
23
Q

CO2 is released…

A

NADH is made

24
Q

Co-Enzyme

A

organic molecule that is required for the proper functioning of an enzyme

25
Q

Acetyl-CoA

A

Coenzyme A + Acetate

26
Q

Products of Citric Acid Cycle

A

1 PA = 1 ATP = 1 FADH2 = 4 NADH = 3 CO2
2 PA = 2 ATP = 2 FADH2 = 8 NADH = 6 CO2

27
Q

What products of the citric acid cycle are transported to ETC?

A

NADH and FADH2

28
Q

Carbon-based product of glycolysis

A

Pyruvate

29
Q

What does the mitochondria’s inner membrane contain?

A

protein carrier complexes which change NADH –> NAD+ and FADH2 –> FAD

FADH2 drops e-s off at a different place than NADH

30
Q

How is energy used along the transport chain?

A
  • Transport protons (H+)
  • Active transport: high-energy to low-energy

high concentration - inner membrane
low concentration - outer membrane

31
Q

How do H+ ions diffuse?

A

ATP synthase

32
Q

What happens during H+ movement

A

ATP synthase uses energy to attach ADP + Pi = ATP

33
Q

Oxidative Phosphorylation

A

Loss of e-s from NADH+ and FADH2 supply energy to make ATP

34
Q

Products of ETC

A
  • Each NADH = 3 ATP
  • Each FADH2 = 2 ATP
  • 8 ATP

36-38 ATP in total
