unit 3 Flashcards
What is a metaphor for ATP?
the currency for your cell
what is Hydrolysis of ATP
removing a phosphate group
What are the three components of ATP
adenine ribose phosphate group
what is an exothermic reaction
energy is realeased
What is an endothermic reaction
energy is consumed
What is phosphorylation
Removing and adding phosphorus multiple times
what is substrate level phosphorylation
energy released during a reaction in small amounts.
what is oxidative phosphorylation
Lots of ATP is made, combines the ETC and chemiosmosis
what are the four phases of cellular respiration
glycolysis, link reaction, krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation(ETC)
how many ATPs are produced for every glucose molecule
38
What is fermentation
The second option is when there is not enough ATP. Muscle cells repeat lactic acid fermentation where 2 pyruvate results in 2 NADH to repeat glycolysis.
Explain OILRIG
oxidation is loss, reduction is gaining. (in terms of NADH+ or NADH + H)
Explain Glycolysis
6 glucose forms 2 pyruvate which creates 2 ATP and 2 NADH.
Explain Krebs Cycle and what the electrons do with themselves
NADH and FADH is produced and carries electrons where 2 pyruvate forms. The link reaction creates Acetly Coa and then attatched to a 4 carbon molecule. The rounds go twice, forming CO2
waht are substances used for cellular fuel
carbs, fats, proteins
