cellular respiration
|
releases energy to make ATP when oxygen is present
|
|
where does cellular respiration take place?
|
mitochondria
|
|
what happens during glycosis?
|
splits glucose into 2 three-carbon molecules and makes 2 ATP
|
|
in which parts of the mitochondria does cellular respiration take place?
|
matrix and inner membrane
|
|
equation for cellular respiration:
|
C6H12OO6+6O2 --> 6CO2+6H2O
|
|
basically, what are the steps of cellular respiration?
|
carbon enters mitochondria, energy is transfered, molecules from glycolysis and krebs cycle enters mitochondria, and ATP molecules are produced
|
|
what happens to the molecules formed during glycolysis when oxygen is avalible?
|
the products are used to produce more ATP molecules through cellular respiration
|
|
what does a net gain of 2 ATP means?
|
it means that when 1 glucose is broken down, 2 ATPs are gained
|
|
what does the krebs cycle do?
|
it breaks down citric acid and transfers energy to the electron transport chain
|
|
where is the electron transport chain located?
|
the inner membrane of the mitochondria
|
|
what is the purpose of fermentation?
|
glycolysis without oxygen
|
|
when does fermentation take place in the muscle cells?
|
when there is no oxygen in the muscles
|
|
how is fermentation invovled in the production of ATP?
|
it helps glycolysis and glycolysis helps in the production of ATP
|
|
whats the difference between lactic and alcoholic acid?
|
lactic - ATP turns into ADP
alcoholic - ADP turns into ATP |
|
what are the 2 types of aerobic resperation?
|
krebs cycle and the electron transport chain
|
|
what are the products of glycolysis?
|
2 ATP, 2 NADH, 2 pyruvic acid molecules
|
|
where does glycolysis take place?
|
cytoplasm
|
|
what is the krebs cycle?
|
a process following gylcolysis in which pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide
|
|
what are the products of aerobic respiration?
|
36 ATP total
|
|
final electron acceptor
|
oxygen
