Cellular Respiration PT1 Flashcards
What happens during cellular respiration
energy in fuel is converted into ATP
what is glycolysis and where
located outside of mitochondria
what happens after energy is invested
molecule splits in half, one half NAD+ picks up hydrogen atoms from carbon becoming NADH
what happens during the final steps of glycolysis
ATP is produced, (one glucose= 2 ATP, produces pyruvic acid)
byproduct of pyruvic acid
carbon dioxide ,
pyruvic acid froms
NADH
final steps of pyruvic acid
acetyl CoA
first step of citric acid cycle
acetyl coA forms 4 carbon molecule,
out come of 6 carbon molecule
release carbon dioxide
what is oxidative phosphorylation process
energy carries go into electron transport chains. high hydrogen ion concentrations
How do catabolic pathways produce energy
produces energy by oxidizing organic fules
what happens in oxidation
Substance loses electrons
whats happens in reduction
substance gains electron or reduction of oxygen atom
what are redox reactions
chemical reactions that transfer electrons between reactant
Difference between oxidized form and reduce form
oxidized- not yet carrying electrons for cell. reduce- carrying electrons for cell
