Respiration Flashcards
3 carbon molecule that is an intermediate compound
Pyruvate
Biochemical pathway it’s produced
Glycolysis
What happens to intermediate compound when oxygen is available and used in breakdown of glucose
Enters mitochondrion
C02 produced
Protons combine with o2
What is produced
In muscle
In yeast
Lactic acidosis
Ethanol
Balanced equation for aerobic resp
C6h12o6 +602——>6co2+6h20
What is the cytosol
Cytoplasm minus organelles
Large or small amount of energu
Small
Fermentation meaning
Aneroid respiration
Where does second stage take place
Mitochondrion
Is oxygen required
Yes
Situation where some cells might not be able to engage
Lack of oxygen
ATP
Adenosine triphosphate
Role of ATP
Stores
First stage
Glycolysis
Where in cell does it take place
Cytoplasm
To what substance is glucose converter
Pyruvate
Is oxygen required
No
Compound to which substance you have named may be converted
Lactic acid
Outline events in total breakdown of product
Pyruvate loses co2
Converts to actetyl co enzyme A
Enters Krebs cycle
ATP and NADH are formed
First stage
Glycolysis
Release of atp as glucose is converted to another substance
Name
Pyruvate
Yeast
Human muscle
Ethanol
Lactic acid
Name small molecule released
Co2
Name given to cycle of reactions
Krebs
Where in cell
Mitochondrion
