100

I’m the high-energy electron carrier formed during glycolysis and the KREBS CYCLE that feeds electrons into the ETC—what am I?

What is NADH?

What molecule is necessary for GLYCOLISIS?

What is glucose?

200

What is another name for the KREBS CYCLE?

What is the citric acid cycle or the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle?

200

This molecule is the final electron acceptor in the Electron Transport Chain, combining with electrons and protons to form water.

What is oxygen

200

What is O2?

What is Oxygen?

200

I’m the waste product formed when oxygen accepts electrons and combines with protons at the end of the ETC—what am I?

What is WATER(H2O)?

300

What are the reactants of GLYCOLYSIS?

What is 2 ATP and 1 GLUCOSE?

300

How many times does the KREBS CYCLE occur per glucose molecule?

What is two?

300

This process, in which protons flow back into the mitochondrial matrix through ATP synthase, generates the energy needed to produce ATP.

What is chemiosmosis?

300

What is ATP?

What is Adenosine Triphosphate?

300

I’m the molecule reduced to NADH during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle, later oxidized to produce ATP—what am I?

What is NAD+?

400

What are the products of GLYCOLYSIS?

What is 2 PYRUVATE 4 ATP and 2 NADH?

400
How many NADPH molecules are made for one full cycle of the KREBS CYCLE (2 rotations)

What is 6 NADPH molecules?

400

This protein complex in the Electron Transport Chain is responsible for pumping protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane, and also receives electrons from NADH.


What is NADH?

400

What is ADP?

What is Adenosine Diphosphate?

400

I’m the entire metabolic process that generates ATP by oxidizing glucose, involving glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation—what am I?

What is Cellular respiration?
500

How many molecules of carbon go into GLYCOLYSIS?

What is six?

500

How much ATP is produced in one full cycle (2 rotations)

What is two?

500

If the Electron Transport Chain is inhibited, this type of metabolism, which generates much less ATP than aerobic respiration, may take over in the absence of oxygen.

What is anaerobic respiration (or fermentation)?

500

What does H+ mean?

What is a positively charged hydrogen atom?

500

I’m the enzyme that spins like a turbine, using a proton gradient to make ATP—what am I?

What is ATP Synthase?
