Question 6

Anabolic Pathway

Answer 6

The synthesis of new molecules, require an input of energy

Question 7

Catabolic Pathway

Answer 7

Breakdown of molecules. Energy is released.

Question 8

Glycolysis

Answer 8

Breaks down glucose sugar into energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.

Question 9

Citric Acid Cycle

Answer 9

Takes Pyruvate molecules from glycolysis and makes two ATP molecules, Six carbon dioxide, and six NADH.

Question 10

Electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation

Answer 10

Many electrons are transferred across the chain. At the end of the chain oxygen picks up electrons and produces 34 ATP

Question 11

Cellular Respiration

Answer 11

Glycolysis -> citric acid cycle -> The electron transport chain -> Oxidative phosphorylation

Converts energy from nutrients into ATP in the mitochondira.
