15
Q

steps of glycolysis

A

2 ATP added to glucose, Glucose splits into 2 3-carbon molecules,
Enzymes rearrange the 3-carbon molecules into pyruvate, Electrons from the two 3-carbon molecules are transferred to NAD+ forming 2 NADH, More reactions convert the two 3-carbon molecules into 2 pyruvates, making 4 ATP

16
Q

Krebs cycle purpose

A

Strip molecules of electrons and transfer them to NAD+ and FAD+ to move to the electron transport chain.

17
Q

location of Krebs cycle

A

mitochondrial matrix

18
Q

reactants of Krebs cycle

A

reactant- acetyl

19
Q

products of Krebs cycle

A

products- ATP, NADH, FADH2, Carbon dioxide

20
Q

what happens before Krebs cycle?

A

before krebs: pyruvate breaks down into acetyl, carbon dioxide is released (1 per pyruvate) and NADH is produced (1 per pyruvate)

21
Q

steps of Krebs cycle

A

Acetyl bonds with coenzyme A, helping it move into krebs cycle
Once in cycle acetyl drops the coenzyme and is added to a 4-carbon molecule forming a 6-carbon molecule (citric acid)
A series of steps breaks down the citric acid, Strips electrons and transfers them to NAD+ to form NADH, FAD+ to form FADH2, Carbon atoms are lost and used to make CO2 and are released

22
Q

purpose of ETC

A

Generate a chemiosmotic gradient that is used to synthesize ATP using ATP synthase.

23
Q

reactants of ETC

A

Reactants- NADH and FADH2,

24
Q

products of ETC

A

products- ATP, NAD+ FAD, Water

25
Q

steps of ETC

A

Uses electrons from NADH and FADH2, Electrons are passed from protein to protein. Each transfer of electron releases energy, Energy is used to pump H+ (hydrogen ions) against gradient w/ proton pump across membrane from matrix to intermembrane, H+ flows through ATP synthase enzyme, powering the enzyme which adds phosphate to ADP forming ATP, Oxygen in the matrix is the final electron acceptor in the ETC, picks up an electron at the end of the chain and bonds with hydrogen ions to form water

26
Q

explain how the processes of cellular respiration rely on each other

A

Glycolysis Glycolysis provides pyruvate for the krebs cycle, which produces NADH and FADH2 for the electron transport chain pyruvate for the krebs cycle, which produces NADH and FADH2 for the electron transport chain

27
Q

purpose of fermentation

A

allows glycolysis to continue making a small amount of ATP without oxygen

28
Q

location of fermentation

A

cytosol

29
Q

reactants of fermentation

A

NADH and pyruvate

30
Q

what part of the CR releases CO2?

A

Krebs cycle, production of acetyl

31
Q

what part of CR takes in O2

A

ETC

32
Q

what part of CR takes place in mitochondria

A

production of acetyl, ETC, krebs

33
Q

what part of CR forms ATP

A

Krebs, ETC, glycolysis

34
Q

what part of CR forms NADH

A

glycolysis, production of acetyl, krebs

35
Q

what part of CR forms FADH2

A

Krebs

36
Q

what part of CR forms water

A

ETC

37
Q

what is the importance of oxygen in ETC

A

Oxygen is used to pick up electrons at the end of the chain, allowing electrons to continually flow and the gradient that powers ATP synthase to continue to exist.
