Q

Cellular respiration

A

-the metabolic pathway in cells by which glucose is broken down to yield its stored energy (that energy is transferred to ATP)
-overall equation
Glucose + Oxygen —-> carbon dioxide + Water

25
Q

Equation for Cellular Respiration

A

1Glucose + 6 Oxygen —–> 6 Carbon Dioxide + 6 Water + ATP

26
Q

3 basic stages of cellular respiration

A

called metabolic pathways

  1. Glycolysis
  2. Citric acid Cyclep
  3. Electron Transport Chain
27
Q

Glycolysis

A
  • first stage of cellular respiration
  • Occurs outside of the mitochondria in the cytoplasm
  • Glucose is broken apart into two pyruvic acid molecules
  • Yields energy which is transferred to ATP and NADH
28
Q

Phosphorylation

A
  • addition of a phosphate group to a molecule
  • Adds energy to the molecule (endergonic)
    ex. ADP + P —-> ATP
29
Q

Dephosphorylation

A
  • removal of a phosphate group from a molecule
  • releases energy from the molecule (exergonic)
    ex. ATP —–> ADP + P
30
Q

endergonic

A

Adds energy to a molecule

31
Q

exergonic

A

Releases energy from the molecule

32
Q

Couples Reactions

A

-reactions that occur together.
ex. oxidation & reaction
Phosphorylation & Dephosphorylation

33
Q

Oxidation

A

Removal of electron(s) from a molecule

  • exergonic (releases energy)
  • NADH —–> NAD
34
Q

Reduction

A

-addition of electron(s) to a molecule
-endergonic (Requires energy)

36

40

  • Losing carbon dioxide
  • Transferring some energy to NADH (reduction)
41
Q

42
Q

Citric acid Cycle

A
  • repeating (cyclic) sequence of reactions that occurs inside the matrix of a mitochondrion

Q

4 steps of the electron transport system

  2. Proton Pump
  3. Electrostatic Energy Gradient
  4. Formation of water
45
Q

What is the final electron acceptor in the ETS?

A

O2 which forms H2O

46
Q

Oxidation reaction in relation to ETS

A

1st step of ETS
-Energized electrons (carried by NADH and FADH2) are transferred to special proteins embedded in the Cristae of mitochondria

47
Q

Proton Pump

A

2nd step of ETS
-As electrons are shuttled along a chain of proteins in the cristae, their energy is used to pump protons (H+) into the intermembrane space

48
Q

Electrostatic Energy Gradient

A

3rd step of ETS

-Protons flow back into the matrix through a channel called ATP synthase, and their kinetic energy is transferred to ATP

49
Q

Formation of water

A

-Low-energy electrons coming off the ETS bind to O2 and rejoin their protons to form water

50
Q

Whats the percent efficiency of cellular respiration?

A

40% of glucoses energy is converted to ATP

51
Q

What are the electron carriers? when full?

A

NAD+ and FAD
When full they are:
NADH and FADH2

52
Q

Most of the energy of cellular respiration comes from which stage?

A

ETS

53
Q

Fermentation

A

Anaerobic
-Occurs following glycolysis when oxygen is not available
-Converts pyruvic acid to waste
Oxidizes NADH —-> NAD to return to glycolysis
-Forms Lactic Acid
