Unit 3- Cellular Energetics Flashcards
What are the 2 main categories of respiration?
aerobic and anaerobic
What is the second step in aerobic respiration?
Krebs cycle
What is the whole aerobic process?
glycolysis –> Krebs cycle –> oxidative phosphorylation –> 36 ATP per glucose molecules
Anaerobic respiration is also known as…
fermentation
List the anerobic respiration process
glycolysis –> regenerate NAD^+ –> 2 ATP per glucose molecule
Where does glycolysis occur?
cytoplasm
What are the products of glycolysis?
1 glucose molecule –> 2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, 2 NADH
What is nececary in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
NAD^+
Where does the Krebs cycle occur?
mitochondria
List the products from the Krebs cycle
conversion of 1 pyruvate into 4 NADH, 1 FADH2, 1 ATP, H2O, CO2
How many times does the Krebs cycle occur for each glucose?
TWICE
Oxidative phosphorylation produces large amounts of _____ from ________ and __________.
ATP, NADH, FADH2
Oxidative phosphorylation occurs in the ________________ and requries ______ to continue
mitochondria, oxygen
_________ and _________ pass their electrons down the electron transport chain to produce _____
NADH, FADH2, ATP
Each NADH can produce up to _____ ATP
3
Each FADH can produce up to ____ ATP
2
What is the final acceptor in the electron transport chain?
1/2 O2
True or false: movement of electrons down the ETC leads to movement of H+ in the matrix
FALSE, H+ ions move OUT of the matrix
Oxidative phosphorylation regenerates NAD+ so that ________ and ________ ________ can continue
glycolysis and the Krebs cycle
True or false: Chemiosmosis occurs in only cell respiration
FALSE, also photosynthesis
The coupling of the movement of electrons down the ETC with the formation of ATP using the driving force provided by the proton gradient is also known as…
chemiosmosis
