exam III Flashcards
glycolysis
“sugar splitting”, 6 ATP
glycolysis location
cytosol
preparatory reaction
converts glycolysis products into C2 acetyl group and CO2 given off, occurs twice per glucose molecule, 6 ATP
preparatory reaction location
entering mitochrondrion
citric acid cycle
substrate-level ATP synthesis, produces both NADH and FADH2, 4 ATP
citric acid cycle location
inside mitochondrion (matrix)
oxidative phosphorylation
exchanges high energy electrons carried by NADH+FADH2 for ATP
2 chunks of oxidative phosphorylation
electron transport chain + chemiosmosis
oxidative phosphorylation location
inside mitochondrion (inner membrane)
ATPs per NADH and FADH2
3 per NADH, 2 per FADH2
cellular respiration makes ___ ATP
~38
4 cellular respiration steps
glycolysis, prep reaction, citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation
aerobic respiration step
oxidative phosphorylation
two steps of cellular respiration that make CO2
citric acid cycle + oxidative phosphorylation
not enough oxygen? need…
fermentation
if O2 is in plenty, 1 glucose =
38 ATP
where is energy in glucose?
in electrons of its hydrogen ions
fermentation allows
to keep creating NAD+ and continue glycolysis in absence of oxygen
types of fermentation
lactic acid fermentation + ethanol fermentation
cell cycle
repeating of cell division
cell theory
all cells from cells
apoptosis
“programmed cell death”
prophase
centrosomes separate, chromatin condenses, spindles elongate inside nucleus
prometaphase
nuclear envelope mostly gone, centrosomes at poles pushed by fibers
metaphase
chromosomes at center, pulled by kinetochores, attached to spindle
anaphase
sister chromatids separate, the centromere splits
telophase
chromosomes decondense, nuclear envelope reappears
