Cellular Respiration

Question 1

Cellular respiration

Answer 1

How organisms convert energy from carbon compounds to make ATP

Question 2

Two main parts of cellular respiration

Answer 2

Glycolysis and aerobic respiration

Question 3

Glycolysis

Answer 3

An anaerobic process that does not require energy

Question 4

Aerobic respiration

Answer 4

Requires oxygen and includes the Krebs cycle and electron transport

Question 5

Requirements and location of glycolysis

Answer 5

Cytoplasm and 2 ATP

Question 6

Outputs of glycolysis

Answer 6

2 NET molecules of ATP, 2 molecules of NADH and 2 pyruvats are formed

Question 7

Krebs cycle

Answer 7

Reactions where pyruvate from the energy in glucose is transported into the mitochondrial matrix to be broken down to carbon dioxide

Question 8

Mitochondrial matrix

Answer 8

Where pyruvates are broken down into carbon dioxide

Question 9

Anaerobic respiration

Answer 9

When oxygen is unavailable cells cannot perform aerobic respiration

Question 10

Fermentation

Answer 10

The anaerobic process that follows glycolysis

Question 11

Location and purpose of fermentation

Answer 11

In the cytoplasm and regenerates the cells supply to NADH

Question 12

Lactic fermentation

Answer 12

Enzymes convert the pyruvate made during glycolysis

Question 13

Alcohol fermentation

Answer 13

Occurs in yeast and some bacteria converting pyruvate into ethyl alcohol and CO2
