Chapter 6 Flashcards
relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration
photosynthesis uses E from the sun to rearrange CO2 and H20 into glucose and O2
cellular respiration breaks down glucose in the presence of O2 to release E in ATP and releases CO2 and H2O
equation for cellular respiration
6O2 + C6H12O6 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
redox reaction
Movement of e- from one molecule to another
Oxidation - loss of electrons
Reduction - gaining of electrons
in cellular respiration, identify the reactant that is oxidized
oxidized - glucose lose electrons from hydrogen atoms
in cellular respiration, identify the reactant that is reduced
reduced - O2 gains electrons from hydrogen atoms
identify and summarize the three stages of cell respiration
Glycolysis - occurs in the cytoplasm, turns 1 glucose into 2 pyruvates, 2 ATP, 2 NADH
Krebs cycle - occurs in the matrix, turns 2 pyruvates into 6CO2, 2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH2
Electron transport chain - occurs in the inner membrane of the Mitochondria, turns 6O2, 8 NADH, 2 FADH2 into 34 ATP, 6H2O
identify the reactants of glycolysis
glucose, 2 ATP, 2 NAD+
identify the products of glycolysis.
2 pyruvates, 2 ATP, 2 NADH
substrate-level phosphorylation
an enzyme transfers a phosphate group from an organic molecule to ADP, a small amount of ATP is produced
location of glycolysis
cytoplasm
purpose of glycolysis
break apart glucose
purpose of Krebs (citric acid) cycle
break down pyruvates
location of Krebs
matrix of mitochondria
reactants of Krebs
2 pyruvates, NAD+, FAD, ATP, and a phosphate
products of Krebs
6 CO, 2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH2
