Glycolysis
What is the purpose of glycolysis?
To break down sugar for ATP energy
Pyruvate moves from the _______ to the _________ _____.
Cytoplasm; mitochondrial matrix
No, it is recycled for each cycle of the CAC.
Where does this process occur?
Inner mitochondrial membrane (cristae)
Where is the energy stored to break down glucose?
In the C-C bonds
Is O2 required to do this process?
No
This process is the _________ __________ of glucose.
Complete oxidation (we know because CO2 is produced)
What molecule is required for this process to produce ATP?
Oxygen
Glycolysis is the _______ ________ of glucose.
Partial oxidation
What is a new product formed during this process?
CO2
What is reduced in this process?
NAD+ and FAD+ (meaning they gain a C-H bond and an electron)
________ are protein electron carriers.
Cytochromes
What happens in the energy capture phase?
Is NAD+ oxidized or reduced?
Reduced to NADH
What is the purpose of this process?
To provide electrons for the ETC by oxidizing carbon.
What is the role of ATP synthase?
An enzyme that makes ATP by pumping H+ ions (protons) back into the matrix, which gives energy to ADP to form ATP and water.
What products does it yield?
2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, & 2 NADH
How many ATP is produced?
2 ATP
What is overall yielded by this process?
2 ATP, 8 NADH, 2 FADH2, 6 CO2
What products are yielded?
30-32 ATP, 0 NADH, 0 FADH2, H2O
