8307869973NADHTakes electrons to the ETC. Electrons have more energy.0
8307869974FADH2Takes electrons to the ETC. Electrons have less energy.1
8307869975ATP SynthaseEnzyme that allows H+ to cross the membrane. Makes ATP.2
8307869976GlycolysisProcess in which Glucose is broken down into pyruvate.3
8307869977Kreb's CycleCyclic pathway in which Acetyl-CoA is broken down into CO2. Makes NADH, FADH2, and ATP4
8307869978ETCActively transports H+ ions across the membrane using energy from electrons. Results in the production of ATP by ATP Synthase.5
8307869979Aerobic RespirationType of respiration that requires oxygen. Runs glycolysis, kreb's cycle, and the ETC6
8307869980Anaerobic RespirationType of respiration that runs without oxygen. Runs Glycolysis only.7
8307869981Lactic Acid FermentationType of anaerobic respiration in which Pyruvate is reduced to lactic acid. Run by mammals.8
8307869982Alcoholic FermentationType of anaerobic respiration in which Pyruvate is reduced to ethanol. Run by bacteria and yeast.9
8307869983OxygenFinal Electron acceptor of the ETC10
