Cellular Respiration

Question 1

Where does cellular respiration take place

Answer 1

Mitochondria

Question 2

Equation

Answer 2

C6H12O6 + O2 > CO2 + H2O + ATP

Glucose + oxygen > carbon dioxide + water + energy

Question 3

Aerobic

Answer 3

With oxygen

Question 4

Anaerobic

Answer 4

Without oxygen

Question 5

Aerobic cellular respiration stages

Answer 5

1) glycolysis
2) pyruvate oxidation and the citric acid cycle
3) oxidative phosphorylation

Question 6

Anaerobic cellular respiration stages

Answer 6

1) glycolysis

2) fermentation

Question 7

Glycolysis occurs in the

Answer 7

Cytoplasm

Question 8

Glycolysis breaks down

Answer 8

1 molecule of glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate

Question 9

Glycolysis

2 molecules of NAD+

Answer 9

Are reduced to 2 molecules of NADH

Question 10

NADH is an enzyme which is

Answer 10

An electron carrier

Question 11

Glycolysis

ATP

Answer 11

2 ATP molecules are produced

4 are made but I️t takes 2 to break glucose

Question 12

Pyruvate oxidation

Answer 12

1) Carboxyl group is removed and given off CO2
2) coenzyme A joins with the 2 carbon group to form Acetyl CoA
3) NAD+ reduced to NADH

Question 13

Citric acid cycle

Kreb cycles

Answer 13

1) 2 carbon group of Acetyl CoA is added to a 4 carbon compound forming citrate
2) CO2 releases
3) 1 ATP, 3 NADH, 1 FADH2 are produced

Question 14

Oxidation Phosphorylation

Answer 14

1) electrons from NADH & FADH2 travel down the electron transport chain to O2
2) oxygen picks up a H+ to make water
3) chemosynthesis- energy released is used to pump H+ back across the inner membrane through ATP synthase
4) 32-34 molecules of ATP are made
