CHAPTER 9 - Cellular Respiration Flashcards
In what organelle does cellular respiration take place?
inside the Mitochondria oxygen is needed
Describe the process of cellular respiration?
The break down of food in the presence of oxygen to create ATP.
TRUE OR FALSE: Bacteria can perform respiration. The mitochondria isn’t NEEDED for cellular respiration. Bacteria uses their outer membrane for aerobic respiration.
TRUE
What are the two types of respiration and their differences?`
Aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
Aerobic respiration is the respiration in the presence of oxygen.
Anaerobic is the respiration
What are the two types of respiration and their differences?`
Aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
Aerobic respiration is the respiration in the presence of oxygen. The complete breakdown of O2.
Anaerobic is the respiration consumes compounds other than O2
Whats the difference between Autotrophs and Heterotrophs?
Autotrophs use the CO2 and H2O and converts it into organic matter. They break down the organic compound for food.
What is the equation for cellular respiration? NOT PHOTOSYNTHESIS
C6H12O6 + 6O2 –> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
Label and define the parts of the mitochondria.
Inner and outer membrane
Any folds within the inner membrane is the CRISTAE
ATP synthase particles, granules, and ribosomes.
Everything else is known as the matrix
What are the 3 steps of respiration?
Glycolysis, Kreb Cycle, and Electron Chain Trasnport.
What are the 3 steps of respiration?
Glycolysis, Kreb Cycle, and Electron Chain Transport.
Where does glycolysis occur? What is produced?
Cytoplasm, or the outside of the cell
2 Pyruvates, 2 ATP’s, and NADH
What is fermentation?
The partial degradation of sugars without O2
What becomes oxidized in aerobic respiraton?
Glucose.
What is called the transfer of electrons in a chemical reaction between reactants?
Redox Reactions
What is OIL RIG?
Oxidation is Loss, Reduction is Gain (Electrons)
What are the two types of fermentation?
Alcoholic and Lactic Acid.
What purpose do metabolic pathways serve?
They use energy sources (carbs, proteins, fats) and turn extra foods into fat for storage
- Fermentation and Aerobic respiration
Aerobic respiration breaks down glucose into what 3 stages?
Glycolysis, Citric Acid Cycle, and Oxidative phosphorylation (Krebs and Electron chain)
Describe the process of glycolysis in aerobic respiration?
Glycolysis occurs with or without O2, breaks down sugar into 2 pyruvates.
When oxygen (O2) is present in the mitochondria, what does the pyruvate turn into before entering the mitochondria?
Acetyl CoA
The Citric Acid Cycle is served to complete what performance?
The breakdown of pyruvate to CO2 as a waste product.
Oxidative Phosphorylation is also referred to as
the Electron Transport Chain
What are the two electron carriers in the electron transport chain/oxidative phosphorylation?
NADH and FADH2
TRUE OR FALSE: Anaerobic respiration and fermentation allow the cell to produce ATP without oxygen (O2)
TRUE.
