16
Q

The electron transport chain will release the energy stored in…

A

NADH and FADH2

17
Q

The electrons will zoom down the ETC until they reach…

A

Oxygen!

18
Q

The H+ ions released during the ETC will be used to power this enzyme.

A

ATPsynthase

19
Q

How many ATP can the electron transport chain make?

A

32

20
Q

When the electrons reach oxygen in the ETC, this compound is made…it’s also why the last step is called chemiosmosis.

A

Water!

21
Q

This process converts Pyruvic acid into carbon dioxide and ethyl alcohol. It also releases energy from NADH.

A

Alcoholic fermentation.

22
Q

This process converts Pyruvic acid into lactic acid and also releases the energy from NADH.

A

Lactic acid fermentation.

23
Q

Short term energy only lasts up to a few minutes and is also responsible for this response…

A

Fight or flight

24
Q

To recuperate your short term energy, which drains your body (noodle arms and legs), is to…

A

Rest and get plenty of oxygen.

25
Q

Fermentation is also helpful for…

A

Making food, like cheese, bread, and chocolate.

Preventing food from spoiling.

26
Q

The ATP invested is used to…

A

Break glucose in half
