16
Q

Glycolysis

A

Anaerobic process that breaks down glucose
Happens in the Mitochondria
Break down of 1 glucose produces 2 ATP

17
Q

Citric Acid Cycle

A

Series of chemical reactions used by aerobic organisms to release stored energy
Happens in mitochondria
Generates 1 ATP per pyruvic acid (2 ATP per glucose

18
Q

Electron Transport Chain

A

Series of proteins and organic molecules found in inner membrane of the mitochondria
Aerobic process
Produces 32-24 ATP
