Q

Pyruvate

A

-Converted to Acetyl CoA in stage 2 where it loses co2 molecule
-Krebs cycle:energy released from Acetyl CoA in form of high energy electrons which combine with NAD+ to for NADH
Electron transport system:low energy electrons combine with oxygen and hydrogen to form H2O

Q

Krebs cycle

A

2nd stage of aerobic respiration
Acetyl CoA broken down to co2 and protons
Releases high energy electrons which combine with NAD+ to form NADP

17
Q

ADP

A

Adenosine di-phosphate
Low energy molecule
Combines with a phosphate and energy molecule to form ATP and water

18
Q

Glycolysis

A

1st stage of respiration
Takes place in cytosol
Anaerobic process
Low-energy release

19
Q

Role of NAD/NADP+

A

Transferring electrons

20
Q

Role of electrons

A

Used in making of H2O

21
Q

Production of alcohol by yeast

A

Add yeast and glucose to conical flask
Add glucose to separate flask(control)
Attack fermentation lock to both
Leave in incubator at 30 degrees overnight

22
Q

To show presence of alcohol

A

Add potassium iodide and sodium hydrochloride
Put in a water bath for 4-5 mins
Allow to cool
Presence of alcohol will result in yellow crystals
