Q

glucose is converted into two molecules of pyruvic acid in a series of enzymatic
reactions collectively referred to as

A

glycolysis

18
Q

what does glycolysis produce

A

2 net ATP
2 NADH
2 pyruvic acids

19
Q

they remain in the cytosol and get partially oxidized during an anaerobic process known as

A

fermentation

20
Q

cells, pyruvate are
then either shuttled into the matrix of the mitochondria to be further broken down via

A

aerobic respiration

21
Q

Pyruvate is systematically oxidized during what?

A

Kreb Cycle

22
Q

what does the Kreb Cycle generate?

A

2 ATP
6 NADH
2 FADH

23
Q

Following the Kreb’s cycle, electrons from NAH and FADH, are subsequently donated to

A

electron transport chain (ETC)

24
Q

where is the (etc) located

A

inner mitochondrial membrane

25
Q

where is the (etc) located for bacteria

A

plasma membrane

26
Q

how is energy released through the ETC

A

As electrons are passed between increasingly more electronegative electron carriers the energy is released

27
Q

what does the energy generated from the ETC do?

A

create a H gradient

28
Q

The H+ ions present between the two mitochondrial membranes
following electron movement through the ETC are allowed to diffuse back down their concentration gradient through an
enzyme complex found in the inner mitochondrial membrane (or bacterial plasma membrane) known as

A

ATP synthase

29
Q

what happens after the electrons reach the end of the ETC

A

accepted by oxygen forming the water and then ATP synthase

30
Q

The flow of H+ ions through ATP synthase, known as

A

chemiosmosis

31
Q

how much ATP is generated through chemiosmosis

A

30

32
Q

what are some reasons that species are unable to utilize oxygen as a final electron acceptor

A

due to the lack oxygen, enzymes, or certain ETC proteins.

33
Q

organisms that lack oxygen rely on what to produce extra ATP

A

anaerobic cellular respiration pathways

34
Q

Steps of anaerobic respiration

A

glycolysis
kreb cycle
in the etc the electrons are passed from one receptors to the next and are diverted to something other then oxygen at the end

35
Q

what leads to less ATP in anaerobic respiration

A

Less electron movement causes less H+ ion transport

36
Q

how much ATP does anaerobic respiration yield?

A

20-30

37
Q

how much energy is harvested via fermentation

A

5%

38
Q

what is a substitute for the ETC

A

fermentation

39
Q

is used in the production of milk, yogurt, cheese, sauerkraut, pickles, and soy sauce.

A

lactic acid fermentation

40
Q

is used in the production of beer, wine, and other alcoholic beverages and it is what
helps make bread rise

A

alcohol fermentation
