Q

Is an anaerobic process

A

Glycolysis

25
Q

Are structures in the cell that convert chemical energy stored in food or usable energy for the cell

A

Mitochondria

26
Q

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

A

Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and cellular respiration puts it back. Photosynthesis releases oxygen into the atmosphere, and cellular uses that oxygen to releases energy from food

27
Q

The release of energy by cellular respiration take place in nearly all life

A

Plants, Animals, Fungi, Protists, Most bacteria

28
Q

Energy captured by photosynthesis occurs in

A

Plants, Algae, and Some bacteria

29
Q

What happens during the process of glycolysis?

A

1 molecules of glucose, a 6 carbon compound, is transformed into 2 molecules of pyruvic acid, a 3 carbon compounds. As the bonds in glucose are broken and rearranged, energy is released

30
Q

In the pathway’s beginning, ___ATP molecules are used up

A

2

31
Q

Although the cell puts 2ATP molecules into its “account” to get glycolysis going, glycolysis produces __ATP molecules

32
Q

One of the reactions of glycolysis removes 4 electrons, now in high-energy stage, and passes the, to an electron carried called

A

NAD*

33
Q

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide

A

NAD*

34
Q

_____molecules accepts a pair of high-energy electrons

A

NAD*

35
Q

_______, holds the electrons until they can be transferred to other molecules

A

36
Q

In the process of glycolysis, 4 ATP molecules are synthesized from __ADP. Given that 2ATP molecules are used to start the process, there is a net gain of just 2ATP molecules

A

4

37
Q

Although the _________ from glycolysis is small, the process is so fast that cells can produce thousands of ATP molecules in just a few milliseconds

A

Energy yield

38
Q

The _____ of glycolysis can be a big advantage when the energy demands of a cell suddenly increase

A
