How does cellular respiration fit into the energy cycle of the biosphere?
|
produce CO2 to fuel photosynthesis
|
|
What is the structure of the mitochondria and how does it allow separate respiration reactions in space?
|
outer membrane, inner membrane, cristae, matrix, compartmentalization
|
|
What does glycolysis accomplish in cellular respiration and what are its steps?
|
produce ATP NADPH and pyruvate. Energy Investment, Cleavage, and Energy Liberation.q
|
|
What reactions made NADH from NAD+ and how do these work energetically?
|
oxidation, e- lost goes into ETC
|
|
What role do fructose-1,6 biphosphate and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate play in glycolysis?
|
2 ATP hydrolyzed create fructose-1,6 biphosphate. (energy investment) 6 carbon molecule breaks into 2 3 carbon molecules (G3P) Cleavage
|
|
What do the terms substrate-level and oxidative phosphorylation refer to?
|
glycolysis and Krebs cycle
|
|
The molecule CO2 is produced as a by-product where in aerobic cellular respiration?
|
Krebs
|
|
What is the purpose of the H+/pyruvate symporter and where is it found?
|
to move H+/pyruvate into the matrix
|
|
What is the main accomplishment of the Krebs cycle and where does it occur?
|
make ATP, NADPH, FADH2. matrix
|
|
What is the role of the enzymes NADH dehydrogenase and ATP synthase in the electron transport chain?
|
NADH translocates 4 H+ across inner membrane, helping to build electrochemical potential used to produce ATP. ATP uses flow of H+ through enzyme back into matrix to generate ATP.
|
|
What is the importance of the H+ gradient in the electron transport chain?
|
H+ pumped into the thylakoid generate increase H+ concentration. There H+ then diffuses back into the stroma through ATP synthase and ATP is made
|
|
What is the role of cytochrome oxidase, in the electron transport chain and what is the significance of this action?
|
uses electrons and H+ to reduce molecular O2 into H2O
|
|
What is the key role of O2 in the electron transport chain?
|
final electron acceptor
|
|
How are important chemical reactions in the electron transport chain separated, that is- where do they occur?
|
PSII, PQ, altochrome, PSI, Fd, ATP synthase
|
|
What did the Racker-Stoeckenius experiment show?
|
how ATP molecules occur
|
|
How are cancer cells related to glycolysis and what is the Warburg effect?
|
like to use glycolysis. Glycotic enzymes overexpressed
|
|
How can other macromolecules be involved in aerobic respiration?
|
NO3 accepts final electron. NADH can give up electron to other molecules
|
|
What happens in the electron transport chain in an organism like E. coli and why is this an example of anaerobic respiration?
|
uses 2 different NADH dehydrogenase and 2 different QP for a total of 4 different ETC's operating simultaneously
|
|
In Photosystem II (PS II) of photosynthesis what does not happen
|
H2O is split to release electrons
|
|
This is NOT involved in the Krebs cycle
|
O2
|
|
Chemiosmotic photophosphorylation directly results in
|
production of ATP
|
|
What best describes which is found in glycolysis?
|
NADH, ATP and pyruvate
|
|
What is the role of cytochrome bc-1 in the electron transport chain and what is the significance of this action?
|
receives electrons from NADH dehydrogenase and passes them to cytochrome
|
