Cellular Respiration Flashcards
Cellular respiration releases energy from glucose to build_____
ATP
What stage of cellular respiration releases carbon dioxide and takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria?
Krebs cycle
In what organelle does cellular respiration take place?
Mitochondria
The reactants of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and ____, are the products of cellular respiration, in addition to ATP.
Water
Most of the ATP is synthesized during the_____ stage of cellular respiration
Electron Transport Chain
This is stage of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen?
Glycolysis
Power plants produce energy. Which organelle is known as the power plant of the cell?
mitochondria
What cellular structure do eukaryotic cells contain, but prokaryotic cells lack?
nucleus
This process releases the energy in glucose to make ATP.
Cellular respiration
The reactions of cellular respiration is grouped into three stages
Glycolysis
Krebs cycle
Electron transport chain
The molecule that powers all the work of cells.
ATP
What is the last stage in cellular respiration?
Electron Transport Chain
Stage in Cellular Respiration with a role to produce reduced (more hydrogen in this situation) cofactors for use in the electron transport chain.
Kreb Cycle
What is the major ATP-generating process in cellular respiration?
Electron Transport Chain
Stage in Cellular Respiration with a role to produce pyruvate and a small amount of ATP from glucose.
Glycolysis
