Electron Tug-of-War
This process occurs when a molecule gains electrons in a redox reaction
What is Reduction?
This location is where the oxidation of pyruvate ends
What is the mitochondrial matrix?
This process occurs when a molecule loses electrons in a redox reaction
What is oxidation?
This will be converted into three carbon compounds from glucose
What is pyruvate?
This is a molecule that transports electrons during cellular respiration.
What is Electron Carrier?
Oxidation of pyruvate occurs this amount of times
What is two?
Oxidation and reduction are this kind of response
What is coupled?
Pyruvate will convert themselves this to pass through the semi permeable membrane of the mitochondria
What is Acetyl-CoA?
In cellular respiration, glucose is this to produce carbon dioxide
What is oxidized?
Two molecules of NADH are formed by electrons picked up by this electron carrier
What is NAD+?
