STAGES OF CATABOLISM
DIGESTION GLYCOLYSIS CITRIC ACID CYCLE ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN
29
The process of _____ changes large, complex molecules into relatively small, simpler ones.
STAGE 1 DIGESTION
30
Small molecules from digestion are degraded to still smaller units, primarily the two-carbon acetyl group that becomes part of acetyl CoA.
STAGE 2 GLYCOLYSIS
31
Acetyl CoA is oxidized to produce CO, and reduced coenzymes (NADH, FADHy) in the ________
STAGE 3 CITRIC ACID CYCLE
32
NADH and FADH, facilitate ATP production through the ______ and _____
STAGE 4 electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation.
33
Stage 1: Digestion processes • Requirement: • Result:
• Requirement: polymers & macromolecules • Result: monomers
34
Stage 2: Glycolysis • Requirement: • Result:
• Requirement: glucose, galactose, fructose • Result: Pyruvate (converted to ACETYL CoA w/ CO2 as waste product)
35
Stage 3: Citric acid cycle • Requirement: • Result:
• Requirement: Acetyl COA • Result: nADH, FADH, & GTP (w/ 2 molecules of CO2 as waste product per Acetyl CoA)
36
Stage 4: Oxidative Phosphorylation/ Electron Transport Chain • Requirement: • Result:
