Glucose Oxidation

Question 1

What is the reaction that mostly all cells rely on to provide energy?

Answer 1

Glucose oxidation

Question 2

Why do cells carry out cellular respiration?

Answer 2

To produce ATP

Question 3

Do all cells utilize cellular respiration?

Answer 3

Yes

Question 4

The energy needed to produce ATP comes from? Where are these provided from?

Answer 4

Substrates(glucose, lipid, and amino acid). Ingestion of food.

Question 5

Equation for cellular respiration.

Answer 5

C6H12O6 + 6O2 —> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP

Question 6

Chemical composition of glucose

Answer 6

C6H12O6.

Question 7

How many moles of oxygen must be used in order to oxidize one molecule of glucose?

Answer 7

6.

Question 8

ATP is synthesized from what?

Answer 8

ADP and a phosphate.

Question 9

What is oxidized in cellular respiration? What is reduced?

Answer 9

Glucose, Oxygen

Question 10

What occurs to hydrogen atoms in glucose during cellular respiration?

Answer 10

Passed to oxygen to form water.

Question 11

Formation of ATP is what types of reaction?

Answer 11

Condensation and phosphorylation

Question 12

ATP synthesis occurs in two processes…

Answer 12

Substrate-level phosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation

Question 13

What is substrate level phosphorylation? Give an example.

Answer 13

A phosphate group is transferred from metabolic intermediate to ADP to form ATP. When creatine phosphate donates its phosphate group to ADP to form ATP.

Question 14

What is oxidation phosphorylation? Give an example

Answer 14

This is when ADP binds to a free inorganic phosphate.

Question 15

Oxidative phosphorylation requires what?

Answer 15

electron transport system and oxygen.

Question 16

Where do cells obtain energy to perform work?

Answer 16

Hydrolyzing previously synthesized ATP.
