What are the coenzymes for cellular respiration?
|
NAD+ & FAD
|
|
|
In what phases is NAD+ reduced/oxidized?
|
Glycolysis & citric acid cycle.
|
|
|
What is NAD+ reduced/oxidized to?
|
NADH
|
|
|
In what phase is FAD reduced/oxidized?
|
Citric Acid Cycle
|
|
|
What is FAD reduced/oxidized to?
|
FADH2
|
|
|
Where are NADH & FADH2 reduced/oxidized?

|
|
|
What are the phases of cellular respiration?
|
Glucolysis
Preparitory Reaction Citric Acid Cycle Electron Transport Chain |
|
|
Glycolysis
|
Anaerobic breakdown of glucose that results in a gain of two ATP and the end product pyruvate. Occurs in the cytoplasm. 1 glucose = 2 pyruvate.
|
|
|
Preperatory Reaction
|
Reaction that oxidizes pyruvate with the release of carbon dioxide; results in acetyl CoA and connects glycolysis to the citric acid cycle. Occurs in the mitochondria.
|
|
|
Citric Acid Cycle
|
Cycle of reactions in the mitochondria that begins with citric acid. This cycle breaks down an acetyl group and produces CO2, ATP, NADH, and FADH2; also calle the Krebs cycle.
|
|
|
Electron Transport Chain
|
Passage of electrons along a series of membrane-bound electron carrier molecules from a higher to lower energy level; the energy released is used for the synthesis of ATP. Occurs in the mitochondria.
|
|
|
Where does glycolysis take place?
|
Cytoplasm
|
|
|
Where does the preparatory reaction take place?
|
Mitochondria
|
|
|
Where does the citric acid cycle take place?
|
Mitochondria
|
|
|
What is another name for the citric acid cycle?
|
Krebs Cycle
|
|
|
Where does the ETC take place?
|
Mitochondria
|
|
|
The energy released in the ETC is used for?
|
Synthesis of ATP
|
|
|
Why do we do fermentation? During which cycle?
|
During the glycolysis cycle when oxygen is unavailable.
|
|
|
What is required for the proces of fermentation?
|
Glucose & 2ADP +2P
|
|
|
What are the products of fermentation?
|
2 Lactate or 2 Alcohol
2 CO2 2 ATP |
|
|
Other than carbohydrates, what can be catabolized for energy?
|
Fats & Proteins
|
|
|
Glycerol can be used for?
|
Energy
|
|
|
Fatty acid and proteins are converted to what for energy?
|
Acetyl CoA
|
