Chapter 9: Cellular Respiration Flashcards

Vocabulary terms from Chapter 9 of Prentice Hall Biology. ALSO A HARD CHAPTER! It covers the process of cellular respiration that cells of heterotrophs undergo.

Tip: If you're unlucky enough to have photosynthesis and cellular respiration together on a test (like me), to keep from getting confused, just remember that between NADP+ and NAD+ the "P" stands for "plants" or "photosynthesis", so the NAD+ is with cellular respiration. Also, between NADPH and NADH. Good luck! :)

1264004214Explain concept 9.1: Catabolic pathways yield energy by oxidizing organic fuelsCatabolic pathways are a set of metabolic pathways that breaks down molecules into smaller units to release energy1
1264004216Compare and contrast aerobic and anaerobic respirationBoth processes include glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidated phosphorylation. In aerobic respiration the final electron acceptor is molecular oxygen O2; in anaerobic respiration the final electron Accceptor is a different substance.2
1264004218Describe the difference between the two processes in cellular respiration that produce ATP: oxidative phosphorylation and substrate-level phosphorylationMost of the ATP produced in cellular respiration come from oxidative phosphorylation, in which the energy released from redox reactions in an electron transport chain is used to produce ATP. In substrate level phosphorylation, an enzyme dirctly transfers a phosphate group to ADP fro an intermediate substrate.
