100
It means "not in air"
Process that happens without oxygen
Anaerobic respiration
100
3C molecule formed when glucose splits in half
Pyruvic acid (Pyruvate)
100
Name this pathway:

100
First step in the breakdown of glucose.
Glycolysis
200
Name the place in the mitochondria where the Electron Transport Chain is located.
Inner membrane (cristae)
200
Process that happens with oxygen
Aerobic Respiration
200
Enzyme that produces ATP as H+ ions pass through it.
ATP Synthase
200
Name the three stages of aerobic respiration.
Glycolysis
Krebs Cycle
ETC & Chemiosmosis
200
Number of ATP produced from one molecule of glucose in aerobic respiration.
34-38 ATP
300
Name what B is.
Intermembrane space
300
Another name for the Krebs cycle.
Citric Acid Cycle
300
Molecule that forms when Acetyl-CoA adds its acetyl group to a 4C molecule during the first step of the Krebs cycle.
Citric Acid
300
Write the chemical equation for cellular respiration.
C6H12O6 + O2 --> H2O + CO2 + ATP
300
What happens to the carbons in aerobic respiration?
They become CO2 and are released into the atmosphere
400
Name the place in the mitochondria where the Krebs cycle happens.
Matrix
400
3C compound before it turns into pyruvic acid in glycolysis
G3P
400
Molecule that builds up in muscles during intense exercise that forms when cells run out of oxygen.
Lactic Acid
400
Number of ATP that must be added to get glycolysis started.
2
400
Molecule that is the final electron acceptor at the end of the ETC to form water
Oxygen
500
Place where H+ ions build up as electrons move down the ETC.
Intermembrane space
500
Process by which cells release energy by creating lactic acid or ethyl alcohol and more NAD+ as a byproduct to be returned to glycolysis.
Fermentation
500
Molecules that act as high energy electron carriers during cellular respiration.
NAD+ and FAD
500
What happens to pyruvic acid after it leaves glycolysis?
Binds with CoA and enters the Krebs cycle
500
Where do the electrons come from that enter the ETC?
NADH and FADH2
