Ch. 8: How Cells Make ATP: Energy-Releasing Pathways Flashcards
__ has 2 complementary components
metabolism
__ uses energy to go from big to small (broken down into smaller parts)
- cellular respiration
catabolic
__ uses energy to go from small to big
- photosynthesis
anabolic
__ pathways release free energy captured by the cell
- is catabolic
exergonic
__ is a catabolic process that requires energy/oxygen and coverts energy in chemical bonds of nutrients to chemical energy stored in ATP
aerobic cellular respiration
__ is just glycolysis (breaking down of sugar)
fermentation
__ is the loss of e-
oxidation
__ gaining of e-
- nad+ –> nadh
- nad+ is a e- transporter = nadh
reduction
in a __ glucose becomes oxidized and oxygen becomes reduced
redox reaction
1 glycolysis
2 formation of acetyl coenzyme a
3 citric acid cycle; kreb cycle
4 electron transport chain/chemiosmosis
4 stages of aerobic respiration
__ is the energy-converting site for cellular respiration
- where everything takes place
- has 2 membranes (inner/outer)
mitochondria
__ the removal of e-
dehydrogenation
__ removal of part of a carboxyl (co2) group
decarboxylation
__ transfer/adding of a phosphate group
- ATP –> ADP + P1`
- 2 types: substrate/oxidative
phosphorylation
_- metabolizes the 6-carb sugar into two 3-carb molecules
- no oxygen
- net yield = 2 atp and 2nadh molecules
- two major phases
- endergonic = needs atp
- exergonic = yields atp and nadh
glycolysis
__ occurs everywhere accept acetyl coa and chemiosmosis
substrate level phosphorylation
__ occurs inly in chemiosmosis
oxidative phosphorylation
1 phosphrylate glucose by adding 2 atp
2 change glucose –> fructose 1, 6 biphospbate
3 split fructose 1, 6 diphosphate into 2g3p
(3 carbons and 1 phosphate each)
1st phase of glycolysis (energy investment)
1 g3p becomes oxidized to reduce nao+ –> nadh
2 g3p is dephosphorylated to sub level phosphorylation (adp –> atp)
3 end w/ 3 carb molecule: pyruvate
2nd phase of glycolysis (energy capture)
Gross: 1 nadh/4 atp
net: 2 nadh/2 atp/2 pyruvate s
products of glycolysis
__ occurs in the cytoplasm
glycolysis
__ is decarboxylated
pyruvate
1 pyruvate is decarboxylated
2 pyruvate is oxidized to reduce nad+ to nadh
3 pyruvate is changed from free energy to acetyl and joined w/ coenzyme a
formation of acetyl coa
2 nadh/2 acetyls/ 2 co2
- happens in the lumen (most inner part) of the mitochondria
products of acetyl coa formation
