Cellular Respiration General
The process of converting energy from glucose to usable energy is called:
Cellular Respiration
The first step of cellular respiration is ____________.
Glycolysis
If oxygen is not present, _____________ respiration occurs.
What does Lactic Acid fermentation produce?
Lactic Acid
What does ETC stand for?
Electron Transport Chain
What are the reactants of cellular respiration?
Glucose and Oxygen
Where does Glycolysis occur?
Cytoplasm
There are two types of fermentation that take place in the cytoplasm of the cell. What are they?
Alcoholic fermentation & Lactic Acid fermentation
How much ATP do both alcoholic & lactic acid fermentation produce?
2 ATP molecules
What two molecules does the ETC bond together?
Hydrogen and Oxygen
What are the products of cellular respiration?
Carbon Dioxide, Water and ATP
What molecule does Glycolysis break down?
Glucose
What kind of organisms does alcoholic fermentation occur in?
Yeast & bacteria
If oxygen is present, __________ respiration occurs.
Aerobic
How many ATP molecule does the ETC produce?
34 ATP
Where does cellular respiration occur?
Mitochondria
What are the products of Glycolysis?
pyruvate, NADH, and ATP
What kind of organisms does lactic acid fermentation occur in?
certain bacteria & muscle cells of animals
What (aerobic) cycle occurs after Glycolysis?
the Krebs Cycle
What is the waste product of the ETC?
What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
How many ATP molecules does Glycolysis produce?
2 ATP molecules
What does alcoholic fermentation produce? What is it used for?
Ethanol and carbon dioxide; used for making bread, beer, and wine
What does the Krebs Cycle produce?
Carbon Dioxide, electron carriers, and 2 molecules of ATP
How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?
Photosynthesis requires the products of respiration, while respiration requires the products of photosynthesis.
