Define Anaerobic Respiration. |
Release of energy from glucose/food molecules without presence of O2 |
|
Define Aerobic Respiration. |
Release of energy from glucose/food molecules with presence of O2 |
|
Name the 3 parts of Aerobic respiration. |
Glycolysis, Link Reaction, Kreb's Cycle |
|
Where does Glycolysis occur? |
Cytoplasm of a cell |
|
What is Glucose's role in Glycolysis? |
Reacts with 2 molecules of ATP to form Phosphorylated Glucose. |
|
What happens to Phosphorylated Glucose in Glycolysis? |
It is unstable, which causes it to collapse into 2 molecules of Triose Phosphate (TP). |
|
What is TP's role in Glycolysis? |
Reacts with NAD and 4 molecules of ADP/Pi to form Reduced NAD, 4x ATP and 2x Pyruvate. |
|
What is Pyruvate's role in The Link Reaction? |
Reacts with Coenzyme A and NAD to form Reduced NAD, CO2 and Acetyl Coenzyme A |
|
Where does the Kreb's cycle take place? |
Mitochondrial Matrix |
|
How is the 6 carbon acid formed in the Kreb's Cycle? |
Acetyl coenzyme A (2 carbon molecule) reacts with the 4 carbon acid from the cycle. |
|
How is the 5 carbon acid formed in the Kreb's Cycle? |
6C acid reacts with NAD to form reduced NAD, CO2 and the 5C acid. |
|
How is the 4 carbon acid formed in the Kreb's Cycle? |
5C acid reacts with FAD and NAD to form: Reduced FAD, Reduced NAD, CO2, ATP and the 4C acid. |
|
How many times does the Kreb's Cycle occur per glucose molecule? |
2 |
|
Name the Coenzymes involved in Respiration. |
NAD and FAD |
|
What is the net gain of ATP from glycolysis? |
+2 ATP molecules |
|
What is needed to form the reduced versions of NAD and FAD? |
H+ and e- |
