glycolysis Flashcards
1
Q
where does glycolisis occur
A
in the cytoplasm
2
Q
what is glycolisis
A
splitting of glucose
3
Q
what activates glucose
A
phosphorilation
4
Q
what then happens to the 2x phosphate tp
A
oxidation occcurs as nad+ is added to form reduced nadh
5
Q
what reaction occurs when nad is added
A
oxidation
6
Q
what does the addition of 2x of adp form
A
pyruvate
7
Q
what is the bu-product of the addition of 4X of adp
A
4x atp
8
Q
what is the input of glycolisis
A
glucose
2xNAD
2xATP
4x ADP
9
Q
what is the output of glycolisis
A
2x pyruvate
2xNADH
2x ATP
10
Q
describe and explain the process of glycolyisis (5)
A
- glucose is phosphorylised by the addition and hrdrolysis of ATP to ADP+ Pi
- glucose bi phosphate produced
- glucose biphosphate phorsphorylised via addition and hydrolysis of atp into adp+ pi
- 2x molecules to triose phophate produced
- 2x molecules of triophosphate are oxidised by adition of NAD forming pyruvate,
- NAD collects two hydrogen ions forming NADH
- 4x molecules of adp +pi also added to 2x molecules of TP
- OVERALL NET GAIN OF 2X ATP
