Q

if no oxygen present glycolysis results in

A

fermentation of organic compounds; the pyruvic acid and atp go thru anaerobic pathways resulting in lactic acid and ethyl alcohol and other compounds

Q

in glycolysis the six carbon glucose plus oxygen results in

A

2 three carbon pyruvic acid net yield 2 atp plus 1 glucose with the net yield of 2 ATP per 1 glucose

17
Q

if oxygen not present pyruvic acid results in

A

lactic acid, ethyl alcohol, NAD+ NO ATP, but NAD+ is made so glycolysis can continue

18
Q

2 types of fermentation

A

lactic acid and alcoholic fermentation

19
Q

alcoholic fermentation is common is

A

yeast

20
Q

in lactic acid fermentation, glucose goes into glycolysis then pyruvic acid then

A

lactic acid the nadh+ and H+ results in NAD+

21
Q

in alcoholic fermentations glucose goes into glycolysis into pyruvic acid a co2 spins off and results in 2 carbon compound continuing resulting in

A

ethyl alcohol

22
Q

fermentation through glycolysis only 2 percent of the energy availabie is

A

captured as ATP; much of the energy in glucose is held in pyruvic acid

23
Q

glycolysis alone or as part of fermentation is

A

not very efficient

24
Q

aerobic respiration occurs in the

A

mitochnondria

25
Q

in aerobic respiration

A

oxygen must be present or it goes to fermentation

26
Q

2 stages in aerobic respiration

A

mitochondira (oxygen must be present or goes to fermentation) –
stages
Kreb’s cycle or electron transport chain

27
Q

Krebs cycle occurs n

A

mitochondrial mix and makes NADH

28
Q

electron transport chain occurs in

A

inner membrane NADH results in ATP
