Q

what is the electron transport chain?

A

its a membrain-ey protein chain that collects electrons and hydrogen. The transporters switch between “reduced” and “oxidized” forms within the cell.

17
Q

the transporting of the electrons through the transport train creates extra energy used to-

A

-put hydrogen ions into the membrane of the mitochondria

18
Q

hydrogen accumulating into membrane creates what?

A

an ion gradient, creating electrochemical imbalance across the membrane

19
Q

what is the electrochemical imbalance used to create?

20
Q

what is ATP synthase?

A

a membrane chain that gets activated by hydrogen flow, this makes a part of it spin and drive ATP production

21
Q

what does each glucose molecule produce?

A

approx. 38 ATP

22
Q

what does the electro-transport chain produce for each pyruvate

23
Q

what does the electro-transport chain need to produce 16 ATP

A

a pyruvate molecule

24
Q

Avogadro’s law?

A

At constant temperature
and pressure, 1 mole of any gas has the
same volume as 1 mole of any other gas.

25
aerobic cellular respiration produces?
36 ATP molecules for each glucose molucules
26
when the electrons reach the final step of the electron-transport chain...
...electrons and hydrogen are transported to oxygen, forming water
27
all organisms require (blank) to fuel the cellular process
captured and stored energy
28
what is a respirometer?
a device that measures oxygen consumption
29
photosynthesis
which synthesizes sugars that support cellular metabolism from the energy of the sun
30
how do plants get energy when they germinate underground?
cellular respiraiton
31
energy is in which chemical bonds?
carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
32
when the chemical bonds of sugar are metabolized, they are stored in?
adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
33
what is the main form of energy used in cells?
adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
34
energy is stored in an ATP's....
three-phosphate tail
35
when an ATP's phosphate bond is broken and the phosphate is removed
adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is produced, this all releases a large amount of energy that is harnested by cellular processes
36
within each cell there is a constant cycling between-
ATP (energy stored in bonds) and ADP (product of released ATP) to power the cells processes
37
4 processes of (ACR) aerobic cellular respiration
glycolysis, (acetyl-coA) synthesis, Krebs cycle, electron-transport chain
38
glycolysis
is a series of 10 reactions that converts a 6-carbon glucose into molecules called pyruvate's
39
glycolysis occurs in the
cell cytoplasm
40
glycolysis produces
4 ATP molecules and 2 NADH molcules
41
cells may undergo aerobic cellular respiration if (blank) is present
oxygen
42
aerobic cellular respiration produce energy by
matabolizing the derivatives of glucose
