Lecture 9 Flashcards
Aerobic
Requiring free oxygen
Anaerobic
Requiring an absence of free oxygen
Cellular respiration
Set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the sales of organisms to convert bio chemical energy from nutrients into atp
Cristae
Fold in the inner membrane of mitochondria
Electron transport chain
A process in which the NADH produced during glycolysis and other category processes are oxidized says releasing energy in the form of ATP
Fermentation
Metabolic process that converts sugar to acids
Glycolysis
Metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate
Krebs cycle
Central metabolic pathway in all aerobic and organisms
Mitochondrial matrix
Mitochondrion consist of an outer membrane and inner membrane and the gel like material call the matrix
Oxidation
Oxidation is the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state by molecule or ion
Oxidative
And bounce between the systemic manifestations of reactive oxygen species and a biological systems ability to readily detoxify the reactive intermediates or to repair the resulting damage
Reduction
Production of chromosomes
Acetyl Coa
Important molecule in metabolism
