Vocabulary
Amount of energy needed to raise 1 g of water 1 degree Celsius.
What is a Calorie?
The sequence of events for cellular respiration from start to finish.
What is glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain?
The energy of the electrons passing along the electron transport chain is used to make this.
What is ATP?
The two types of fermentation.
What are alcoholic and lactic acid?
Glycolysis converts glucose into two molecules of this.
What is pyruvic acid?
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is one of these.
What is an electron carrier?
The amount of ATP molecules produced during cellular respiration using one glucose molecule.
What is 36 ATP molecules?
Photosynthesis is to chloroplasts as cellular respiration is to…
What is mitochondria?
This means “does not use oxygen”.
What is anaerobic?
Bread is an example of this.
What is alcoholic fermentation?
First step in releasing energy from glucose.
What is glycolysis?
This is the equation for cellular respiration.
6 CO2 + C6H12O6 --> 6 CO2 + 6 H20 + Energy
When these molecules pass through ATP synthase, ATP molecules are produced from ADP molecules.
What are H+ ions?
This is produced in alcoholic fermentation, but not lactic acid fermentation.
What is alcohol and CO2?
Photosynthesis and Cellular respiration are considered this.
What are opposite processes?
Process by which cells release energy in the absence of oxygen.
What is fermentation?
In eukaryotes this is where the electron transport chain takes place.
What is the matrix of the mitochondria?
Another name for the Krebs Cycle.
What is the citric acid cycle?
A cause for muscle soreness.
What is lactic acid fermentation?
Without oxygen, a cell can extract a net gain of only this many molecules of ATP from each glucose molecule.
What is 2 molecules of ATP?
A series of proteins in which high energy electrons are used to convert ADP to ATP.
What is the electron transport chain?
This process occurs in the cytoplasm.
Cellular respiration only occurs in the presence of this.
What is oxygen?
Breathing heavily after running a race is your body’s way of doing this.
What is repaying an oxygen debt?
Cellular respiration is able to extract about 38% of the potential energy from glucose. This is what happens to the rest of the energy.
What is get lost as heat?
