Bhs Biology Ch. 9-1

Front 1

calorie

Back 1

the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius

Front 2

glycolysis

Back 2

first step in releasing the energy of glucose, in which a molecule of glucose is broken into two molecules of pyruvic acid

Front 3

cellular respiration

Back 3

the process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen.

Front 4

NAD+

Back 4

electron carrier involved in glycolysis

Front 5

fermentation

Back 5

process by which cells release energy in the absence of oxygen

Front 6

anaerobic

Back 6

process that does not require oxygen

Front 7

What are the products of glycolysis?

Back 7

2 molecules of pyruvic acid and 2 molecules of ATP and
2 molecules of NADH

Front 8

Name the 2 main types of fermentation.

Back 8

Alchoholic and lactic acid

Front 9

How is the function of NAD+ similar to NADP

Back 9

Both are electron carriers.

Front 10

How are lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation similar?

Back 10

Both provide energy to cells in absence of oxygen.

Front 11

How are lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation different?

Back 11

Alcoholic fermentation produces alcohol, carbon dioxide, and NAD+; while lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid and NAD+.
