Q

Cellular respiration = ________

A

process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen

19
Q

What are the differences between aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration?

A

aerobic - more efficient, needs oxygen, 3 step process

anaerobic - absence of oxygen -> doesn’t produce a lot of ATP, simpler and less efficient

20
Q

If cellular respiration took only one step then ___________. There are 3 main parts of CR: _________, _________, and _________.

A

all energy would be lost in light and heat, glycolysis, Krebs cycle, ETC.

21
Q

What is produced and what is the purpose of each step of cellular respiration?

A

glycolysis - process in which one molecule of glucose is broken in half producing two molecules of pyruvic acid

Krebs cycle - pyruvic acid created in glycolysis is broken down into CO2 in a series of energy extracting reactions. It produces 4 NADH, 1 FADH2, and 1 ATP

ETC - uses the high energy electrons from the Krebs cycle to convert ADP to ATP.

22
Q

Where does Cellular Respiration take place and where do its 3 steps take place?

A

mitochondria,

glycolysis - cytoplasm

krebs - mitochondria (matrix)

etc - mitochondria (membrane folds)

23
Q

What are the electron carriers used in cellular respiration?

A

NAD+ turns into NADH and FAD is turned into FADH2.

24
Q

What is a carrier molecule?

A

compound that can accept a pair of electrons and transfer them along to another molecule

25
Q

What parts of CR are anaerobic and which parts are aerobic?

A

anaerobic - glycolysis

aerobic - krebs and etc
