Glycolysis Flashcards
what is energy expenditure?
energy from ATP is used by cells to perform a range of task
4 things ATP essential for?
biosynthesis
pumping ion molecules
mechanical work
heat production
how many moles of ATP is glucose equal to?
1 glucose = 36 atp
what is the redox reaction during cellular respiration?
glucose oxidized (loose electrons) oxygen reduced (gains electrons)
where does glycolysis take place?
cytoplasm and does not require energy
how many atp produced iin glycolysis?
4
what is substrate level phosphorylation?
output phase
four distinct locations in mitochondria?
outer membrane
inner membrane space
inner membrane electron transport chain
matrix
what are the three linking stages of glycolysis?
oxygen present pyruvate formed by glycolysis enters mitochondria
carrier protein in inner membrane transports pyruvate from cytosol to mitochondria
in mitochondria glucose breakdown begins
