Unit 6 Study Guide Flashcards
Cell stores what?
ATP
How do cells break down ATP to release energy?
Hydrolyze aka H2O.
ADP is a what type of molecule?
Low energy molecule.
What can you use to turn ADP into ATP+H20?
ADP+P(phosphate group)+energy.
What are the three reaction groups of cellular respiration?
Glycolysis, Citrine Acid Cycle(Krebs Cycle) and Oxidative phosphorylation.
In between Glycolysis and Krebs cycle what occurs(intermediate step)?
Conversion of pyruvate into Acetyl CoAs.
Blood sugar into ATP.
What is the quickest reaction to get ATP?
Glycolysis.
What reactions are involved in creating 95% of ATP and is the slowest?
Krebs Cycle and Oxidative phosphorylation.
Where are the reactions occurring in the cell?
Glycolysis-cytostome, both of krebs and oxidative phosphorylation is found in mitochondria.
What is the definition of cellular respiration?
Series of reactions in which glucose and other nutrients are broken down and the energy released is used to make ATP.
The energy in food is transferred by a flow of __ and __?
Electrons(e-) and protons(H+).
What is the other name for e- and H+?
NADH(NAD+) and FADH2
What do you expel after ATP is broken down?
Carbon dioxide, water and energy.
What is inhaled/used to create energy?
Glucose and oxygen.
Hydrogen Atoms in glucose are taken off one by one.
NADH carries 2 electrons.
What does NAD+ and FADH2 do?
Temporarily carry electrons then release them to the electron transport chain.
ATP is made in 2 ways, ___ and ___.
Directly and Oxidative phosphorylation.
Directly is the process of
ADP+P+energy -> ATP+H2O. Requires Enzymes.
Oxidative uses glucose from food.
What is created and characteristics of glycolysis?
Breaks down 1 glucose → turns to 2 pyruvate molecules(cytostome). It uses 2 ATP(becomes 2 ADP) and produces 2 NADH and 2 H^+ and 4 ATP but only 2 since it uses 2 for this process(4-2=2). It is anaerobic(no oxygen needed).
Glucose has how many carbons and pyruvate has how many carbons?
6 and 3.
Pyruvate is converted to(intermediate step)?
Acetyl CoA.
Intermediate step produces what for 2 pyruvate?
2 NADH + H^+, 2 Acetyl CoA and 2 CO2.
What are the characteristics of an intermediate step?
Requires O2 to occur, and found in the matrix of the mitochondria.
What does the citric acid cycle start with and end with?
Acetyl CoA(2) and ends with Acetyl CoA(2)
What does the citric acid cycle produce?
NADH + H^+(6), Co2(4), ATP(2), FADH(2)
What are the characteristics and where is the citric acid cycle found?
Needs O2, occurs in the mitochondrial matrix.
What are the characteristics of oxidative phosphorylation?
Occurs in a mitochondrial matrix on a chain of proteins called electron transport chain. Requires O2 and begins with NADH, FADH2 and H+ from glycolysis. Produces 38 ATP.
What enzyme produces most of ATP?
ATP synthase. It is embedded in the membrane of mitochondria, providing a channel for protons to cross.
How does the electron chain work for oxidative phosphorylation?
NADH and FADH bring electrons and protons to the electron transport train(matrix), where then the electrons power a natural electric pump through the intermembrane of the mitochondria. A special molecule will direct the e- to the next pump and will power a new electric pump(h+) and a high concentration of H+ will be generated in the intermembrane of the mitochondria from NADH and FADH bringing 2 e- and 2 H+. Once the flow of electrons reaches the last pump, it will be made into H2O from O2 and the protons will be transferred to the ATP synthase where the concentration gradient of H+ will cause it to move through the synthase and will create power to make the ATP synthase make ATP.
The H+ ion then flows across ATP synthase and energy released is used to make ATP.
Metabolism without oxygen(anaerobic respiration) has two reactions called?
Lactic Acid and Alcoholic Fermentation.
Lactic Acid(too much pyruvate) characteristics?
Used by most animal cells when O2 is not available. NADH donates 2 e- and a H+ directly to the pyruvate produced during glycolysis, producing lactate(3C) and NAD+. Makes muscles sore.

Characteristics of skeletal muscles?
Skeletal muscles are long cylinder fibers(striated pattern), parallel and unbranched(nuclei are found in the wedges between each muscle fiber. (microfibers and strong power).
