Cellular Respiration Study Guide Flashcards
Cellular respiration takes place in the…
Mitochondria
Photosynthesis takes place in the…
Chloroplast
Where does cellular respiration occur in?
Animals and plants
What are the reactants to cellular resperation?
Oxygen and glucose
What are the products of cellular resperation?
CO2 and water
The products of cellular resperation are the reactants for….
Photosynthesis
A reaction that requires oxygen is said to be…
Aerobic
First step to cellular respiration is…
- Glycosis where glucose is broken down
- Two atp are made and end with pyruvic acid
Second step to cellular respiration is…
High energy electron carriers NADH and FADH2 are made
What happens during the electron transport chain?
- ATP is made as ATP synthase when H+ions (protons) go through
- Electrons combine with the ions and oxygen to make water
If there isnt any oxygen, then after glycosis what occurs?
Fermentation
What is the equation of cellular respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 + ADP + P ——> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
Glucose + Oxygen + ADP + Phosphate ——> Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP
Overworked muscles that lack oxygen produce….
Lactid acid
Location of biochemical events: Glycosis, Krebs cycle, Electron transport chain, Calvin cycle and Light reactions
- Glycosis = Cytoplasm
- Krebs Cycle = Mitchondrial Matrix
- Electron
Transport
Chain = Inner Mitochondrial Membrane (Cristae) - Calvin Cycle = Stroma
- Light Reactions = Thylakoid Membrane
How much ATP is needed for glycosis, krebs cycle, electron transport chain and in total?
- Glycosis = 2
- Krebs Cycle = 2
- Electron Transport Chain = 34 from NADH and FADH2
TOTAL = 38 but counts as only 36 (because energy might be used elsewhere)
