100

Where does glycolysis occur?

What is cytoplasm. 

100

What is the link reaction also known as?

What is pyruvate decarboxylation.

100

What is the reactant of the Critic cycle?

What is pyruvate.

100

What are essential for Oxidative Phosphorylation? 

What is NADH and FADH2.

100

When does cellular respiration occur?

What is all the time.

200

What is the purpose of glycolysis?

To convert glucose to two pyruvate. 

200

Where does the link reaction occur?

What is the mitochondria.

200

Where does the Citric acid cycle occur?

What is the mitochondria. 

200

What is the specific function? 

Creating an electrochemical gradient that leads to the creation of ATP.

200

Do all living things do cellular respiration?

Yes, all living things use cellular respiration to convert glucose into energy. 

300

How many enzymes driven reactions occur in glycolysis?

What is 10. 

300

What is the result of the link reaction?

Two Acetyl-CoA, two carbon dioxide, and two NADH.

300

What does the Citric Acid cycle/Krebs cycle require?

What is oxygen. 

300

Where are the proteins of the electron transport chain located?

What is the inner membrane of the mitochondria. 

300

What is the difference between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Photosynthesis converts light energy into the chemical bond energy of glucose. Cellular respiration converts chemical bonds of glucose into ATP. 

400

How many ATP are needed for glycolysis?

What is 2 with a net gain of 4. 

400

What two stages does the link reaction link?

What is glycolysis and the citric acid cycle/Krebs cycle.

400

What is one of the products of the Critic Acid cycle? 

What is 3 NADH, 1 FADH2, 1 ATP, and carbon dioxide.  

400

Where do the H+ get pumped when energy is released by the electron transport chain?

What is the inter membrane space.  

400

What mechanisms control cellular respiration?

Most of the control is accomplished by the control of specific enzymes in the pathways. 

500

What are the products of glycolysis?

What is 2 ATP, 2 NADH and 2 pyruvate. 

500

What happens during the link reaction?

A carbon atom and a hydrogen atom are removed from pyruvate, forming 2 two-carbon molecules called acetyl-COA

500

Who is the Krebs cycle named after? 

Who is Hans Krebs.

500

What is the final electron acceptor in aerobic oxidative phosphorylation?

What is oxygen.

500

What is ATP and what is it used for?

Adenosine triphosphate. It is a principal molecule for storing and transferring energy.
