27
Q

purpose of glycolysis

A

break down glucose into pyruvate creating atp and NADH

28
Q

where does glycolysis occur

A

in the cytosol

29
Q

all products of glycolysis

A

2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, 2 NADH

30
Q

what happens to pyruvate in aerobic conditions

A

converted into acetyl-CoA to enter krebs cycle

31
Q

purpose of krebs cycle

A

produces NADH and FADH

32
Q

where does the krebs cycle occur

A

matrix of the mitrocondria

33
Q

role of NADH/FADH in ETC

A

donate high energy e creating a proton gradient for ATP production

34
Q

where does the ETC occur

A

inner mitochondrial membrane

35
Q

how does ATP synthase create ATP

A

H+ flows down their gradient where atp synthase uses this energy to ADP+P=ATP

36
Q

what are the two stages of photosynthesis

A

Light dependent reaction and calvin cycle

37
Q

where does the light dependent reaction occur

A

thylakoid membrane

38
Q

purpose of light dependent reaction

A

produce ATP and NADPH for the calvin cycle

39
Q

what is split during the light dependent reaction

A

Water - H2O

40
Q

role of chlorophyll in the light dependent reaction

A

excites e- to start the ETC

41
Q

purpose of calvin cycle

use ATP and NADPH to change CO2 into glucose

42
Q

where does the calvin cycle occur

A

stroma
