Q

All you should know about the electron transport chain

A

Once NADH and FADH2 reach the electron transport chain the oxidize back to their original form (NAD+ and FADH+). Also, the electrons are passed to series of carriers, each carrier has a stronger attraction for an electron than the other. O2 is the end carrier.

16
Q

Chemical energy

A

Energy of the cell… ATP is the chemical, usable energy of a cell.

17
Q

Two ways to make ATP

A

Substrate-Level Phosphorylation

Oxidative Phosphorylation

18
Q

What is Substrate-Level Phosphorylation?

A

When enzymes transfer a phosphate group from an organic substance to ADP

19
Q

What is Oxidative Phosphorylation?

A

Use the potential energy in concentration gradients
ATP synthase (protein in the membrane) make ATP as concentrated H+ ions diffuse through the synthase. This makes the majority of the ATP

20
Q

ADP

A

The pre stage of atp..

21
Q

Stages of respiration

A

Glycolysis
Transition
Krebs cycle
Electron transport chain

22
Q

What happens in glycolysis?

A

Means splitting sugar
Breaks the 6 carbon glucose into 2, 3 carbon pyruvate
It requires two ATP to start, 4 are made by the end, so 2 ATP or netted through substrate-level phosphorylation
Also forms 2 NADH Happens in the cytoplasm

23
Q

Transition

A

Pyruvate can not enter the Krebs Cycle
It must first combine with CoEnzyme A (known as the transition step)
2 CO2 molecules, 2 NADH and 2 Acetyl CoA molecules are formed

24
Q

Krebs Cycle

A

There are 2 turns of the cycle (one for each Acetyl CoA)
Each turn makes an ATP, 2 CO2, 3 NADH and FADH2
Happens in the mitochondria

25
Q

Electron Transport
Chain

A

Happens in the mitochondria
Electrons from NADH and FADH2 are dropped off and passed from one molecule to another
As the electrons are dropped off, H+ ions are pumped into the inner membrane space
This forms a concentration gradient (potential energy)

26
Q

Anaerobic respiration

A

No oxygen

27
Q

Aerobic

A

Oxygen
