Metabolic reactions that uses the energy from carbohydrates,fatty acids or amino acids breakdown to produce atp molecules |
Cellular respiration |
|
Coenzyme in oxidation reduction reactions that accepts electrons and hydrogen ions to become nadh+_h as oxidation of substrates occurs |
Nad+ |
|
Chemical reaction that occurs in the absence of oxygen |
Aerobic |
|
Chemical reaction that requires air. |
Aerobic |
|
Anaerobic breakdown of glucose that results in a gain of 2 atp and end products such as alcohol and lacate |
Fermentation |
|
Anaerobic breakdown of glucose that results in a gain of 2 atp and the production of pyruvate |
Glycolysis |
|
Process in which atp is formed by transferring a phosphate from a metabolic substrate to adp |
Substrate level atp synthesis |
|
Reaction that oxidizes pyruvate with the release of co2 |
Preparatory reaction |
|
Cycle of reactions in mitochondria that begins with citric acid. This cycle breaks down an acetyl group and produces co2 atp nadh and fadh2 |
Citric acid cycle |
|
Any several ion containing protein molecules that are members of the etc in photosynthesis and cellular respiration |
Cytochrome |
|
Metabolic process that breaks down lrg molecules into smaller ones |
Catabolism |
|
Chemical reaction in which smaller molecules are combined to form larger molecules |
Anabolism |
|
Metabolites that are the products of and/or the substrates for key reactions in cells allowing one type of molecule to je changed into another type such as carbohydrates converted to fats |
