cellular respiration (7) Flashcards
glycolysis
splitting glucose into pyruvate
electron carrier
nucleotide that reversibly binds to high energy electrons
phosphorylation
adding a phosphate group to a molecule
oxidative phosphorylation
using high energy electrons to add phosphate groups
glycogenolysis
splitting glycogen into glucose molecules
gluconeogenesis
making glucose from non-carbs
how do autotrophs feed
they produce their own organic molecules
how to heterotrophs feed
consume organic molecules from other organisms
name the steps of oxidation of glucose
- glycolysis
- pyruvate oxidation
- krebs cycle
- electron transport system
- chemiosmosis
glycolysis
takes 1 glucose and makes 2 pyruvate
makes 2 atp
pyruvate oxidation
for each 3 carbon pyruvate
- 1 co2
- 1 NADH
- 1 acetyl coA
krebs cycle
oxidizes acetly-coA
-
chemiosmosis
atp synthase use concentration gradient to make ATP
