1
Q
Cellular respiration formula
A
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ->->-> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
2
Q
Glycolysis
A
Occurs in the cytoplasm, breaks down glucose into two pyruvate, 2 NADH and a net gain of two atp
3
Q
Pyruvate Oxidation
A
When pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA
4
Q
Krebs cycle
A
Conversion of acetyl CoA to carbon, produces six nadh and two fadh, also two carbon per turn
5
Q
Electron transfer chain
A
Uses energy from the electrons to create a proton gradient that powers ATP synthase
6
Q
Redox reactions
A
Reduction - gaining an electron
Oxidization - losing an electron
7
Q
Anabolic and catabolic
A
Creating and destroying
8
Q
Autotrophs and heterotroph
A
Making your own energy v eating things for energy
9
Q
Fermentation
A
Unaerobic conversion of pyruvate and nadh to latic acid and nad+
