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 do this so that the cell can then use ATP synthase to make ATP
Move hydrogen ions into the intermembrane space
The two types of fermentation.
What are alcoholic and lactic acid?
This is the main reactant for both types of fermentation
What is pyruvic acid?
NAD+ 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 made using this process.
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?
These are 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 that allows cells to continually release energy in the absence of oxygen.
What is fermentation?
In eukaryotes this is where the electron transport chain takes place.
What is the inner membrane of the mitochondria?
Another name for the Krebs Cycle.
What is the citric acid cycle?
A type of fermentation that occurs when you exercise
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 membrane proteins which use high energy electrons to convert ADP to ATP.
What is the electron transport chain?
This cellular respiration process occurs in the cytoplasm.
What is glycolysis?
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?
