Glycolysis
Link Reaction
Krebs Cycle
Oxidative Phosphorylation
100
Two molecules of pyruvate (3C)
What is the end product of glycolysis?
100
How many times does the link reaction occur per molecule of glucose?

2, since there are 2 pyruvate molecules

100
What is another name for the Krebs cycle?
The citric acid cycle.
100
What do we call a linked set of proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation?
Electron transport chain
200
What happens during lysis?

The hexose biphosphate is split into two triose phosphates

200
Where is pyruvate transported from and to?
From the cytosol into the mitochondrial matrix
200
How many times does the Krebs cycle occur per glucose?
2 times.
200

What do we call the process by which energy is transferred from electron transport chain to the ATP synthase by movements of protons across the membrane

chemiosmosis

300
How many NADH are produced?
2. 1 from each 3C sugar
300
What is the name of the process whereby pyruvate loses a carbon molecule? What does this carbon become?
decarboxylation, forms carbon dioxide
300
By which process are two molecules of carbon dioxide formed?
Decarboxylation
400
What is the name of direct synthesis of ATP?
Substrate level phosphorylation
400
How is an acetyl group formed?
2C compound loses H via oxidation
400
How many hydrogen carriers are reduced per cycle?
4 (3 x NADH, 1 x FADH2)
500
How many ATP molecules are produced during glycolysis?
2 (4 are made but 2 are used)
500

Why is this called the link reaction?

It links the products of glycolysis with the aerobic processes of the mitochondria

500
Why is it called a cycle?
The 6C compound is broken down to form the original 4C compound.
