What is the equation for cellular respiration?
|
C6H12O6 + 6CO2 yields 6CO2 + 6H2O
|
|
what percent of the energy in glucose is converted into ATP energy?
|
40%
|
|
when something is phophorylated that means. . .
|
that a phophate is transferred to something and because more reactive in the process
|
|
When the phosphorylated molecule loeses its phosphate as it does work what does it create?
|
ADP and phosphate
|
|
catabolic pathways do what?
|
break down moleucules
|
|
anabolic pathways do what?
|
build up molecules
|
|
why does oxygen serve as the final electron acceptor?
|
because oxygen has a strong ability to grab elections, very EN
|
|
T/F most of the energy is lost in the form of heat
|
true to keep our bodies warm
|
|
What is a hydrogen carrier that shuttle electrons from one reaction to the net?
|
NAD
|
|
As glucose is broken down do redox or oxidation reactions occur?
|
Oxidized
|
|
Once glucose is broken down enxymes do what?
|
oxidate glucose and NAD so that they reduce to NADH
|
|
what is embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion and converts some of the chemical energy extracted from food to make ATP
|
ETC electron transport chain
|
|
What are the stages of Aerobic Respiration
|
glycolysis, krebs cycle and electron transport chain
|
|
what of the three stages of Aerobic Respiration occurs in the cytoplasm?
|
glycolysis
|
|
What are pryuvates?
|
borken down cluclose molecules
|
|
what of the three stages of Aerobic respiration breaks down glucose into two pryuvates and a total of two NAD are reduced to NADH per glucose oxidized, thus 6 carbons are reduced to 2, 3 carbon sugars.
|
glycolysis
|
|
During glycolysis how much ATP is made per glucose?
|
2
|
|
How is ATP produced by Glycolysis?
|
by the trasnferral of a phosphate directly to ADP
|
|
When a phosphate is transferred directly to ADP from the substrate forming ATP this is called
|
substrate-level phosphorylation
|
|
T/F CO2 is produced by glycolysis
|
false
|
|
Which of the stages of Aerobic Respiration occurs in the mitochondrial martrix inside the inner mitochondrial membrane?
|
Krebs cycle
|
|
what happens to the pyruvates before entering the Krebs cycle
|
Pyruvate is shuttled into the matrix and each pyruvate loses ONE CO2 molecule and the CO2 that was lost diffuses out of the mitochondrion. Then one molecule of NAD is reduced to NADH per pyruvate. coenxyme A is attached to NADH forming a two carbon compound called aceytl CoA
|
|
In the Krebs cycle the acetyl CoA molecules is attached to what?
|
a four carbon compound called oxaloacetic acid (OAA)
|
|
when an acetyle CoA molecules is attached to oxaloacetic acid (OAA), what does it form?
|
citric acid, six carbon compound
|
|
When enxymes break down citric acid in the Krebs cycle what does it produce along the way? and how much?
|
two CO2 moelucles
|
|
In the Krebs cycle for each acetyl CoA that enters, what and how much is produced?
|
two CO2s, three NADHs and one FADH2
|
|
In the Krebs Cycle, for the one glucose that produced two pyruvates you can a total of what?
|
four CO2s, six NADH, two FADH2 and two ATP
|
|
What's the first molecule of ETC?
|
flavin mononuceotide FMN
|
|
what sthe final electron acceptor fo the ETC that passes electrons to the final electron acceptor?
|
Oxygen
|
|
A second ATP generating process that uses chemiosmosis is called?
|
oxidative phophorylastion
|
|
the coupling of the exergonic electron flow down the ETC to endergonic ATP production by the creation of aproton is called?
|
chemiosmosis
