Why Flashcards
What are the two main parts of cellular respiration?
- Glycolysis
- Anaerobic respiration which is an anaerobic process
What does anaerobic mean?
No oxygen required
What does aerobic mean?
Requires oxygen
1 molecule of glucose is __ ATP
36
How many ATP does Glycolysis start with
2
How many ATP does the Krebs Cycle start with
2
How many ATP does electron transport start with
32
Where does the energy production take place
Mitochondria
True or false:
Autotroph’s and heterotrophs both experienced cellular respiration and photosynthesis
False
While they both experience cellular respiration only autotrophs experience photosynthesis
Is glycolysis anaerobic or aerobic
Anaerobic
In glycolysis where is glucose broken down
Cytoplasm
How many ATP are produced in Glycolysis? How many ATP does it start with
4 and starts with 2
How may pyruvates are produced and where are they used
2 and used in the Krebs cycle
Is the Krebs cycle aerobic or anaerobic
Aerobic
Acid cycle or mitochondria maitex are also known as
The Krebs cycle
What starts the Krebs cycle
One pyruvate from glycolysis starts the crab cycle
How does a pyruvate make a new molecule
Pyruvate joins an enzyme and converts a new molecule
What happens when there are several enzymes
Catalyst reactions take place, ultimately producing citric acid to continue the cycle
What is the net yeild for CO2 ATP NADH FADH
CO2=6
ATP=2
NADH=8
FADH=2
2 pyruvate equals what
To pyruvate equals two turns the Krebs cycle
What do NADPH and FADH do at the end of the Krebs cycle
They move to the next phase called electron transport
Is electron transport aerobic or anaerobic
Aerobic
What is released from NADH and FADH while they are diffusing
Hydrogen. This creates a gradient through ion channel or ATP SYNTHASE producing a total of 32 ATP
What is released form NADH and FADH as they move
Electrons travel through the membrane molecule to molecule. The file of preceptor is an oxygen which bond with hydrogen producing H2O
What is the chemical formula for cellular respiration?
Glucose+ O6 +6O2//6CO2 + 6H2O
