In respiration, the electrons are extracted from glucose and ultimately accepted by:
oxygen
in respiration, most of the energy in the original glucose molecule is:
released as heat
within the cell, glycolysis occurs in:
the cytoplasm
the cells NET energy harvest from glycolysis is represented by:
ATP and NADH
as part of the first step in the first prepatory phase of glycolysis
glucose is phosphorylated
as part of the cleavage step in glycolysis, glucose is:
converted to g3p and dihydroxyacetone phosphate
for each molecule of glucose that completes glycolysis, how many NAD molecules are reduced
2
in the reaction of glycolysis, ATP is formed:
by substrate level phosphorylation
what does the cristae do
permits the passage of most molecules
after acetyl CoA enters the citric acid cycle, the acteyl portion of the molcule:
is released
in each turn of the citric acid cycle, how many molecules of ATP are produced?
1
in the citric acid cycle, how many molecules of FADH are produced per molecule of glucose?
2
the energy released by the flow of electronsalong the electron transport chain is used directly to:
pump protons
Why is the Pentose Phosphate pathway also known as the hexosemonophosphate shunt
it shunts the produced G6P either to glycolysis
what are the 2 important sectons of the PPP? what occurs in these 2 sections
oxidative phase-NADP is reduced to NADPH
non-oxidative phase-makes ribose
what does the PPP have in common with glycolysis
3 irreversible steps
produces G6P, F6P, makes NADPH
starting materials are the same, intermediates are the same
NADPH is related to what coenzyme and how much ATP is produced from one NADPH
NADH
gives 3 ATP
how does glucose enter the PPP? what is the net energy yield
enters as glucose 6 phosphate and yeilds 2 NADPH
2 ATP after ETC
in what tissues is the PPP important and why
useful to Red Blood Cells and nucleic acids as well as tissues active in fatty acid synthesis
the first phosphorylation step of glycolysis results in the formation of a molecule of _________
Glucose 6 Phosphate
the second phosphorylation step, the glucose molecule is again phosphorylated to form: ______________
fructose 1-6-biphosphate
fatty acids are bound to glycerol by formaing an _____
ester
unsaturated fatty acids are usually obtained from:
vegetation
what is metabolism
the chemical changes that occur in a cell
describe the 2 types of metabolism
anabolism-cell creates a larger molecule throug the combination of smaller ones
-uses energy
catabolism-cell creates smaller molecules by breaking down larger ones
-releases energy
4 important roles of carbohydrates in living organism
source of energy
storage molecules
structure
supplies carbon for cellular elements
5 classes of lipids
prostaglandins
triglycerides
waxes
phosphoglycerides
steriods
sphingolipids
