Q

What happens in glycolysis?

A

Glucose splits into 2 molecules (which are 2 pyruvate); glyco - lysis

22
Q

Glycolysis in and out

A

Glucose and 2 ATP -> 2 pyruvate and 2 NADH and 4 ATP

23
Q

There are 10 steps in glycolysis that all use the same enzyme

A

Wrong they all use different enzymes

24
Q

Glycolysis steps 1 through 5 are … while 6 through 10 are …

A

Endergonic, exergonic

25
Between glycolysis and before krebs, what needs to happen?
Puruvate is processed to acetyl co A
26
How does the pyruvate enter the mitochondrial matrix?
They are processed one ag a time and enger through active transporters of the mitochondrial membranes (TOM and TIM)
27
Who is TOM?
The transporter of the outer mito membrane
28
Who is TIM?
The transporter of the INNER membrane
29
What are TOM and TIM considered moody?
They require different amounts of ATP each time
30
What is added and removed from pyruvate to turn it into acetyl co A?
Vitamin A is added, carbon and 2 oxygens removed
31
What other names is krebs cycle called?
The citric acid cycle or TCA cycle
32
What is an intermediary?
Substance that carries energy, like NAD and FAD
33
What are the reactants and products of the krebs cycle?
Acetyl co A ➡️ 6 NADH, 2 FADH2, 2ATP, CO2(waste product)
34
Nitrogen is the waste product of the krebs cycle
Wrong, carbon dioxide is the waste product of krebs
35
What things do the TCA cycle require?
ADP, phosphate, NAD+, FAD, and oxaloacetate
36
What does the 8th step of the citric acid cycle create?
Oxaloacate
37
How many times does the krebs cycle occur to create its end result?
2 times because there are 2 acetyl co A
38
What do some proteins in the ETC do?
Transfer hydrogens to create a H gradient
39
Chemiosmotic phosphprylation
The process where E is stored in H+ gradient to power ATP synthesis
40
How is E released in the ETC?
H+ falls from a carrier to Oxygen
41
The ETC regenerates … and … because they give up electrons
NAD+ and FAD
42
Who is the ultimate hydrogen acceptor?
Oxygen
43
What is the waste product of ETC?
Water
44
Reactants and product of ETC?
H gradient produces from electrons and H from NADH AND FADH2 ➡️ 34 ATP
45
What kind of proteins are the ETC transporters? What do they do?
Active transport uniports, they pump thr H gradient from matric into intermembrane space
46
Where does H taken from NADH AND FADH2 go? Who takes em?
Into the intermembrane space by ETC transporters
47
H+ is transporter through … synthase. It goes from the … to the …
ATP; IMS, Matrix
48
NADH yields … ATP, FADH yields … ATP
3, 2
49
How does ATP synthase work?
It rotates, There is a plate divided into three parts, it holds ADP in one space and phosphate in the other The third plate uses H+ coming down the gradient to create ATP, which is released from this 3rd plate
50
Lethal does 50
Does at which 50% of the population would die
51
Why is DNP dangerous?
Its therapeutic dose is too close to its LD 50
