Q

Glycolosis

A
  • Occurs in the cytosol
  • Begins cellular respiration
  • breaks down glucose into two molecules of three-carbon compound pyruvate
  • Ancient: occurs in cytoplasm and doesn’t need co2

Q

Pyruvate Oxidation and the citric acid cycle

A
  • Takes place in the mitochondria
  • Oxidizes pyruvate (3C) to a two-carbon compound
  • supplies third stage with e-

A
  • process 2 acetyl coA for each initial glucose
  • after 2 turns:
    • 2 Co2
    • 2ATP
    • 6NADH
    • 2FADH2

Q

Oxadative Phosphorylation

A
  • ETC and chemiosmosis combined
19
Q

ETC

A
  • NADH oxidized
  • FADH2 oxidized
  • 2H++1/2H2O made into water
  • Pumps H+ ions to intermembrane space to power atp synthase
20
Q

ATP Synthase

A

enzyme that turns ADP into ATP

21
Q

Chemiosmosis

A
  • The movement of ions across a selectively permeable membrane, down their electrochemical gradient.
  • Force from gradient spins shaft in F1 unit-change conformation of F1 in a way that catalyzes phosphorylation of ADP to ATP
22
Q

Anerobic e- acceptors

A

NO3-

SO42-

23
Q

Fermentation

A
  • Harvest chemical E without O2
  • Glycolysis
  • 2nd step recycle NAD+
  • Occurs in cytoplasm
