cellular respiration Flashcards
product of glycolsis
pyruvic acid
product of krebs cycle
nadp+
role of oxygen in ETC
final electron acceptor
number of atp molecules used in investing phase in glycolysis
2
product of ETC
water
main purpose of cellular respiration
generate ATP
occurs in the cytosol in cell
glycolysis
generates most ATP
ETC
breakdown of a glucose molecule into 2 pyruvates
glycolysis
two parts of glycolysis
investment phase and pay off phase
converts acetyl coa to citrate
krebs cycle
series of chemical reactions where electrons carried by NADH and FADH from the Krebs Cycle is used to fuel this process
electron transport chain
set of metabolic pathways that converts Glucose to Adenosine Triphosphate
cellular respiration
use of Oxygen in the respiration process
aerobic process
respiration process that does not use oxygen
anaerobic process
