Chapter 11 - Catabolism, Energy Release, Conservation Flashcards
these use reduced inorganic substances for getting electrons
lithotrophs
chemotrophs obtain energy from blank of chemical compounds
oxidation
obtain electrons from organic compounds
organotrophs
humans are blank
chemoorganoheterotrophs
the complete or incomplete oxidation of an organic compound with the subsequent release of energy
chemoorganotrophy
use of organic molecules as energy, carbon and electron source
chemooorganotrophs
three chemoheterotrophic processes in nature
aerobic cell respiration, anaerobic cell respiration, fermentation
final electron acceptor is always blank in aerobic cellular respiration
oxygen
final electron acceptor is blank oxygen in anaerobic cell respiration
never
incomplete oxidation of organic molecule where end products are organic acids or alcohols
fermentation
fermentation uses an blank electron acceptor to oxidize the organic energy source like pyruvate
endogenous
enzyme catalyzed reactions whereby the product of one reaction serves as the substrate for the next
catabolic pathway
function both as catabolic and anabolic pathways
amphibolic pathways
process that can completely catabolize and oxidize an organic energy source to CO2 using
aerobic cellular respiration
aerobic respiration is a blank reaction because most energy is lost as heat; some captured and stored in bonds of ATP or equivalent molecule
exergonic reaction
complete oxidation of glucose all the way down to six carbon dioxides
cellular respiration
three routes of breakdown of pyruvate
embden-meyerhof, pentose phosphate, entner-duodoroff
glycolysis steps
add phosphates from atp to glucose to make fructose, aldoslase turns it into glyceraldehyde, glyceraldehyde dehydrogenase changes it to bisphophoglycerate and NADH
pathway used by soil bacteria and a few gram negative bacteria
entner duodoroff
entner pathway yields blank products than glycolysis
fewer, 1 atp, 1 nadh
glucose water and nadp are changed into co2 nadph, h+ pi
pentose phosphate pathway
to form acetyl CoA, a blank is taken away from blank
co2, acetyl group
aka the kreb’s cycle
tricarboxylic acid
citric acid cycle steps
acetyl coA with oxaloacetate forms citrate (2 carbon plus 4 carbon = 6 carbon),
tricarboxylic acid yields
2 Co2, 3 NADH, 1 FADH2, 1 GTP
during electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation, a total of blank nadh and blank fadh are formed
10, 4
electron transport chains take electrons from blank and blank to blank
nadh, fadh2, o2
difference between reduction potentials of nadh and oxygen is blank so a lot of blank is created
large, energy
bacterial and archaeal etc are located in blank
membrane
electron transport chain in eukaryotes are in the blank membrane
inner mitochondrial
electron transfer is accompanied by blank movement across inner mitochondrial membrane of etc
protong
process by which atp is synthesized as the result of electron transport driven by the oxidation of a chemical energy source
oxidative phosphorylation
maximum yield of atp in aerobic respiration
38
actual yield of atp in aerobic respiration in eukaryotes is blank and about blank in prokaryotes
