CHAPTER 7.2-7.3 Flashcards

1
Q

AEROBIC RESPIRATION

A
  • series of rx that converts glucose to CO2 that allows the cell to recover energy
  • final electron acceptor: O2
  • produces large amount of atp (36)
  • in bacteria, fungi, protozoa and animals

Q

why is glucose only broken down in glycolysis

A

glucose fits the enzyme glucokinase and other sugars have to be converted into forms that can enter the pathway

Q

ATP/NADH from ETC

A

gross: 28 ATP
net: 32 ATP

17
Q

Before pyruvate can enter the kreb’s cycle, it must be turned into_______

A

acetyl-coA

18
Q

CoA function

A

allows carbons from pyruvate to enter krebs cycle

19
Q

First step of the kreb’s cycle

A

the carbons in acetyl join the carbons from oxaloacetate to make citrate. CoA is released

20
Q

Citrate turns back to _______ by ______

A

oxaloacetate; losing 2 carbons in the form of CO2

21
Q

Products per 1 acetyl coA

A

3 NADH
1 FADH
1 ATP
2 CO2

22
Q

Kreb’s cycle puts chemical energy into________

A

NAD and FAD; turns them into NADH and FADH2

23
Q

NADH and FADH2

A

take energy to the ETC

23
Q

etc is the ______

A

cell membrane of bacteria
inner mitochondria of a eukaryotic mitochondria

23
etc takes a ____ from either _____ to the _____
hydrogen; NADH/FADH2; other side of the membrane
23
where is the hydrogen sent thru in etc
to produce ATP, H is sent thru ATP synthase
23
in aerobic respiration, what does ATP synthase do
when O2 binds to H that comes thru ATP synthase, it turns into water
23
proton motor force
gradient of hydrogens that are on one side of the membrane
23
how much ATP does NADH and FADH2 make
NADH: 2.5 ATP FADH2: 1.5 ATP
