Cellular Respiration
Where cellular respiration takes place.
What is mitochondria?
The thing that occurs when oxygen is not available
What is fermentation?
The two stages of photosynthesis
What are light reactions and the Calvin cycle?
An organism whose cells lack a membrane-bound nucleus, such as bacteria.
What is a prokaryote?
The tendency of cancer cells to take up large amounts of glucose and convert much of it to lactate even when oxygen is available.
What is Warburg metabolism?
The thing that powers ATP synthesis
What is H+ gradient?
The amount of ATP molecules glycolysis produce per glucose.
What is 2 ATP?
The molecule that absorbs light energy during photosynthesis.
What is chlorophyll?
Microbes reproduce quickly and use available nutrients rapidly.
What is competition for nutrients?
Increase in glucose uptake and lactate production.
What is glucose use and lactate production in Warburg metabolism?
The excess gas released during pyruvate oxidation and the citric acid cycle?
What is CO2
The products of alcoholic fermentation.
What is Ethanol and CO2?
The gas that plants take in to make glucose.
What is Carbon Dioxide?
Refrigeration, heating, drying, adding salt or sugar, or acidifying food.
What is preventing microbial growth?
Defective mitochondria caused cancer cells to rely on fermentation.
What is Warburg's hypothesis with cancer cells?
The three main products of glycolysis per glucose
What is 2 pyruvate, 2 net ATP, and 2 NADH.
The main products of lactic acid fermentation.
What is lactate?
The reason plants appear green.
What is chlorophyll?
Fermentation batches either spoiled or failed. Different fermentation outcomes depend on the microorganisms present.
What is Pasteur's discovery?
Cancer cells can still use mitochondria for cellular respiration.
What is wrong with Warburg's hypothesis?
The thing that is oxidized after glycolysis.
What is pyruvate?
The reason why fermentation makes little ATP.
What is glycolysis?
The gas released during photosynthesis
What is oxygen?
Controlling temp and pH to help with competition for microbes.
What is preserving food?
The type of imaging used to detect cancer based on Warburg's hypothesis.
What is a PET scan?
