Glucose is used to make ATP which is used in Aerobic Respiration |
The order of the steps of cellular respiration |
|
|
The Electron Transport Chain |
Which steps produce the most energy |
|
|
is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste product. |
What cellular respiration is for: what values it provides: what all of the things produced are |
|
|
both autotrophs and heterotrophs |
What organisms do cellular respiration |
|
|
Cellular Respiration:the process in which cells make ATP by breaking down organic compounds Photosynthesis: the process in which autotrophs convert light energy into chemical energy |
Difference between Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis |
|
|
Heterotroph |
an organism deriving its nutritional requirements from complex organic substances. |
|
|
ATP |
Adenosine triphosphate |
|
|
Glycolysis |
a biochemical pathway in which one six-carbon molecule of glucose is oxidized to produce two three-carbon molecules of pyruvic acid |
|
|
Cellular Respiration |
the process in which cells make ATP by breaking down organic compounds |
|
|
Fermentation |
the recycling of NAD+ under anaerobic conditions |
|
|
Alcoholic Fermentation |
yeast use this process to convert pyruvic acid to ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide |
|
|
Lactic acid fermentation |
pyruvic acid is converted into lactic acid |
|
|
Pyruvic acid |
three-carbon product of glycolysis |
|
|
Krebs cycle |
pathway that breaks down acetyl CoA, producing CO2, hydrogen atoms, and ATP |
|
|
Electron transport chain |
a series of electron carriers embedded in the cristae of the inner mitochondrial membrane. |
|
|
Mitochondrion |
a double membrane-bound organelle found in all eukaryotic organisms |
|
|
Autotroph |
An organism capable of synthesizing its own food from inorganic substances using light or chemical energy. Green plants, algae, and certain bacteria are autotrophs |
