"And Another One"
The process by which NAD+ becomes recycled into NADH. There are two forms of this process.
What is Fermentation?
During glycolysis, one six-carbon molecule of glucose is broken into two of these three-carbon molecules.
What is Pyruvate?
Most of the respiration process takes place in this membrane-bound organelle.
What is the Mitochondria?
This is the 'passive' form of ATP; ATP becomes this molecule after it gives power to a cellular function.
What is ADP?
This is what the "H" in NADH stands for.
What is Hydrogen?
This fermentation process includes reducing pyruvate into a new three-carbon molecule.
During aerobic respiration (and alcoholic fermentation), carbon reacts with oxygen in the cell to form this waste product.
What is CO2?
This is the name for the enzyme in the Mitochondria which is responsible for making the most ATP at the end of respiration.
What is the ATP Synthase?
This is the (rough) range of ATP produced from the ATP synthase in Chemiosmosis.
What is 26-34 ATP?
This is the primary function of the coenzyme NADH.
What is Electron Transport?
The absence of oxygen; this kind of process can be used to describe both fermentation and glycolysis.
What is an Anaerobic Process?
Glucose is not the only six-carbon molecule in cellular respiration; the other one is called this.
This is the name of the chain of membrane-bound enzymes at the end of cellular respiration.
What is the electron transport chain?
This is the full name for ATP.
This is the name of the waste product which results from chemiosmosis.
What is H2O?
This coenzyme is responsible for allowing glycolysis to repeat and therefore allows ATP to continue forming in the absence of oxygen.
What is NAD+/NADH?
This is the four-carbon molecule which is both a reactant and a product of the Krebs Cycle.
What is Oxaloacetate?
These two particles travel through the inner mitochondrial membrane to ultimately for ATP.
What are electrons and hydrogen ions (H+)?
This is the other electron transport coenzyme involved in cellular respiration; this enzyme is found only once each in the Krebs Cycle and the Electron Transport Chain.
What is FADH2?
Contrary to the classification of reaction, alcoholic fermentation requires this element to complete the process.
During the link reaction, pyruvate reacts with oxygen, NAD+, and a free enzyme in the cell to form these products.
What are CO2, NADH, and Acetyl CoA?
Electrons form this in carrier proteins to allow active transport of hydrogen ions into the mitochondrial intermembrane space.
What is a Proton Gradient?
This simple change in ATP causes an exergonic reaction, which is responsible for powering cell processes.
What is losing a phosphate group?
This is the final acceptor of electrons and hydrogen ions after respiration has completed; without it, aerobic respiration would not occur.
What is Oxygen?
