Quarter 2: Lesson 3 Flashcards
1
Q
is the process by which cells
convert glucose and oxygen into ATP (energy),
carbon dioxide, and water.
A
Cellular respiration
2
Q
where does the generation of cellular respiration happen?
A
mitochondria
3
Q
It is a type of cellular
respiration process that
requires oxygen to
happen. It occurs in the
mitochondria and
produces a high
amount of ATP.
A
Aerobic respiration
4
Q
It is a type of cellular
respiration process that
occurs without oxygen,
occurs in the cytoplasm,
produces less ATP, and
results in byproducts like
lactic acid or ethanol.
A
Anaerobic respiration
5
Q
- Happens in the cytoplasm
of an animal cell - It breaks down glucose
into two molecules of
pyruvate. - It produces 2 molecules of
ATP and 2 molecules of
NADH, an electron
A
GLYCOLYSIS
6
Q
- Happens in the inner
mitochondrial membrane
where electrons are moving
from one protein complex to
another. - It uses the electrons from
NADH and FADH2 to
generate large amount of
energy and produce water.
A
ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN
6
Q
- Happens in the
mitochondrial matrix - It further breaks down
pyruvate and releases
carbon dioxide (byproduct) - It generates high-energy
electron carriers such as
NADH and FADH2 to be
used for the last stage
A
KREBS (CITRIC ACID) CYCLE
