Q

What does the Krebs cycle produce?

A

Produces CO2(waste), H+, & ATP

Main goal is to create H+ to travel through electron transport chain

17
Q

What occurs in the electron transport chain?

A

Electrons are passed from carrier molecules down the chain to form ATP

Eukaryotes get embedded in the crustal of the mitochondria

18
Q

What does the electron transport chain produce?

A

Produces ATP

19
Q

Prokaryotes

A

Reactions that occur in the cytoplasm of the cell

20
Q

Eukaryotes

A

Reactions that occur in the mitochondria of the cell
