Chapter 7.4 Anearobic Cellular Respiration Flashcards
A form of fermentation occurring in yeast in which NADH passes its hydrogen atoms to acetaldehyde, generating carbon dioxide, ethanol, and NAD+. Alcohol Fermentation
Alcohol Fermentation
A form of fermentation occurring in animal cells in which NADH transfers its hydrogen atoms to pyruvate, regenerating NAD+ and lactic acid.
Lactic Acid Fermentation.
What is the equation for lactic acid fermentation?
C6H12O6 + 2 ADP + 2 Pi -> C3H6O3 + 2 ATP
What is the formula for glucose ?
C6H12O6
What is the formula for lactic acid?
C3H6O3
The maximum volume of oxygen, in millimetres, that the cells of the body can remove from the bloodstream in one minute per kilogram of body mass while the body experiences maximal exertion.
Maximum Oxygen Consumption (VO2 max).
The value of exercise intensity at which lactic acid production increases.
Lactic Acid Threshold.
