Reaction of glycolysis needs oxygen or doesn’t?
anaerobic
Where does the pyruvic acid go?
mitochondria and Krebs cycle
Another name for Citric acid cycle
Kreb’s Cycle
Which organelle does the Kreb’s cycle occur in
Mitochondria
What does pyruvic acid release when broken down?
Carbon Dioxide, 2 atp
Which organelle does the Electron transport chain occur in?
Mitochondria
In the electron transport chain what happens?
Oxygen is used to make water and 32 atp
What is Cellular Respiration?
Process of breaking down glucose
molecules to produce energy (ATP)
Stage 1 of cellular respiration
Glycolysis – 2 pyruvic acids + 2ATP
Stage 2 of cellular respiration
Citric acid cycle – CO2 + 2ATP
Stage 3 of cellular respiration
Electron transport chain – H2O + 32ATP
