Summarize Glycolysis, Electron Transport Chain, and Kreb's cycle
Glycolysis - Begins breakdown of glucose. Occurs in the cytoplasm. Breaks glucose molecule into 2 pyruvate molecules. Also creates NADH from NAD+. Creates 2 ATP molecules. Does not use oxygen.
Electron Transport Chain - occurs along the inner membrane of the mitochondrion. NADH and FADH2 transfer electrons and ions to allow for the creation of 32 ATP. oxygen takes electrons to form water
Kreb's cycle - occurs in the matrix of the mitochondrion
completes the breakdown of glucose into carbon dioxide
generates NADH and FADH2 that carry electrons and ions to the electron transport chain creates 2 ATP
