|
Glycolysis
|
All organisms, takes place in cytosol, molecule of glucose is oxidized to two molecules of pyruvic acid (Pyr) Yield: net 2 ATP, 2 NADH, 2 pyruvate
|
|
|
Chemiosmosis
|
All eukaryotes, generation of ATP by movement of Hydrogen ions across a membrane, happens in mitochondria
|
|
|
ATP production
|
Cellular respiration
|
|
|
Kreb's (citric acid) cycle
|
Series of chemical reactions of central importance in all living cells that utilize oxygen as part of cellular respiration, yield: 1 ATP, 3 NADH, 1 FADH two, CO two (exhale)
|
|
|
Fuction of Kreb's cycle
|
To produce electron acceptors for the ETC
|
|
|
Electron Transport Chain (ETC)
|
Biochemical reactions that produce ATP, yield: ~36ATP, occurs in inner membrane of mitochondria, cristae
|
|
|
Photosynthesis
|
6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6 O2; the synthesis of sugar from light, carbon dioxide and water, with oxygen as a waste product; all life depends on it
|
|
|
Light Reactions
|
First stage of photosynthetic system; converts solar energy into chemical energy
|
|
|
ADP.ATP (phosphorylation)
|
ATP is synthesized in the mitochondrion by addition of a third phosphate group to ADP
|
|
|
NADP.NADPH
|
cyclic photophosphorylation: production of ATP using energy from sunlight
|
|
|
Calvin Cycle
|
Takes place in the stroma of chloroplasts; Uses energy from short-lived electronically-excited carriers to convert carbon dioxide and water into organic compounds that can be used by the organism
|
|
|
C4 photosynthesis
|
Separate 2 steps of carbon fixation anatomically=2 diff. cells, Passes carbon by regerneration CO two in inner bundle sheath cells to Rubisco and Calvin cycle, grasses, corn, rice, sugar cane
|
|
|
CAM photosynthesis
|
Separate 2 steps of carbon fixation temporarially=2 diff. times; Fix carbon at night, put in "storage" compounds, then in day release CO two from "storage" compounds to Calvin cycle; cacti, succulents, pineapple
|
|
|
Mitosis
|
Cell separates its duplicated genome into two identical halves; generally followed by cytokinesis; interphase, prophase, metaphase,anaphase, telophase; cell division triggered by growth; clones,asexual reprodcution, growth, repair
