Cellular Respiration Flashcards
Chemiosmosis
NRG stored in a proton gradient that’s used to do work
Chemotroph
Make organic compounds from simple inorganic materials
FADH2 is made
Krebs Cycle
Heterotroph
Rely on autotrophs
Intermembrane Space
Btwn inner & outer membrane
NADH is made
- 2 from glycolysis
- 2 from pyruvate
- 6 from Krebs
NADH Dehydrogenase
1 st protein channel in the ETC
Redox Reaction
- Oxidation = loses
- Reduction = gaining
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Process of reducing O2 & series of redox rxn to make ATP
Photoautotroph
Plants, photosyntehsis
Overall Rxn of Cellular Resp
C6H12O6 + 6 O2 = 6 H2O + 6 CO2 + 36 ATP
Glycolysis
- Cytosol
- Anaerobic
Process of Glcolysis
- Add 2 ATPs to glucose
- Glucose splits into G3P & DHAP
- Pi + & 2 NADH made
- Remove all the PO4 (4)
Glycolysis Products
- 2 Pyruvate
- 2 ATP
- 2 NADH
Pyruvate Oxidation
- Matrix
- Aerobic
Process of Pyruvate
- C is removed to make CO2 & NADH
- CoA added
Pyruvate Oxidation Products
- 2 Acetyle CoA
- 2 NADH
- 2 CO2
Krebs Cycle
- Matrix
- Aerobic
Process of Krebs Cycle
- Acetyl CoA combines w/oxaloacetate = citric acid
- 2 CO2 & 2 NADH forms
- Enzyme add Pi to GTP which makes ATP
- 1 NADH & 1 FADH formed
Krebs Cycle Products
- 2 ATP
- 6 NADH
- 2 FADH2
- 4 CO2
ETC & Oxidative Phosphorylation
- Btwn matrix & intermembrane space
- Aerobic
Process of ETC
- NADH drops 2 e & 2 H at NADH hydrogenase
- E are passed through channels & cytochrome complex which pulls H across
- H gradient is created in intermembrane space
- As H moves down gradient, it powers ATP synthase
Exception for FADH2 in Krebs Cycle
- FADH is dropped off at ubiquinone
- Only makes 2 ATPs
Total ATP Calculations
- 2 ATP G
- 2 ATP K
- 4 ATP from NADH G
- 6 ATP from NADH P
- 18 NADH from K
- 4 ATP from FADH2 K
= 36 ATP
Types of Fermentation
- Lactate fermentation (muscle cells)
- Ethanol fermentation (yeast/bacteria)
Lipids are broken down by
- Converted into glycerol + fatty acids
- Glycerol turns into G3P (glycolysis)
- Fatty acids turn into acetyl CoA (krebs cycle)
Proteins are broken down by
- Amino acids
- Goes through deamination, where it enters wherever
Fermentation in humans happens to
Regenerate NAD+
Lactate fermentation process
- Pyruvate is reduced to turn into lactate
- NADH is oxidized (NAD is regen)
Ethanol Fermentation
- Pyruvate is reduced, NADH oxidized
- CO2 released & NADH regen
