| 22440015 | Oxidative | overall, cellular respiration is a(n) ______ process | |
| 22440016 | Adenosine Triphosphate | consists of adenosine (the adenine nucleotide and ribose) plus 3 phosphates; used by cells as an immediate source of energy | |
| 22440017 | Fermentation | a catabolic process that produces a small amount of energy in the absence of oxygen | |
| 22440018 | Aerobic Respiration | occurs in mitochondria, requires oxygen, consists of Kreb's Cycle and ETC | |
| 22440019 | 36 ATP | what is the net ATP product of aerobic respiration? | |
| 22440020 | ATP Synthase | protein complex that sits within the cristae membrane; responsible for producing ATP as protons flow down a gradient | |
| 22440021 | Electron Transport Chain | energy coupling reaction that creates H+ gradient in the cristae membrane; series of redox reactions | |
| 22440022 | Chemiosmosis | a process by which ATP is formed in mitochondria as protons flow down a proton gradient through the ATP Synthase complex in the cristae membrane | |
| 22440023 | Mitchell Hypothesis | chemiosmosis is also known as the _______ | |
| 22440024 | Glycolysis | occurs in the cytoplasm of a cell prior to aerobic respiration; breakdowns glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate | |
| 22440025 | 2 ATP | what is the net ATP product of glycolysis? | |
| 22440026 | Substrate-level Phosphorylation | process that produces a small amount of ATP during glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle | |
| 22440027 | Kinase | enzyme used in substrate-level phosphorylation | |
| 22440028 | Oxidative Phosphorylation | chemiosmosis; produces ATP by using energy derived from the redox reactions of the ETC | |
| 22440029 | NAD+ | nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide; carries electrons to the ETC from glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle; oxidized form | |
| 22440030 | NADH | nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide; carries electrons to the ETC from glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle; reduced form; each one produces 3 ATP during the ETC | |
| 22440031 | FAD | flavin adenine dinucleotide; carries electrons to ETC from Krebs Cycle; oxidized form; each one produces 2 ATP during the ETC | |
| 22440032 | FADH2 | flavin adenine dinucleotide; carries electrons to ETC from Krebs Cycle; reduced form | |
| 22440033 | Reduction | gain of electrons or hydrogens | |
| 22440034 | Oxidation | loss of electrons or hydrogens | |
| 22440035 | Cytochromes | proteins that help make up the ETC, similar in structure to hemoglobin but transport e- instead of oxygen | |
| 22440036 | Krebs Cycle | part of aerobic respiration; also known as citric acid cycle | |
| 22440037 | Acetyl Co-A | raw material of Krebs Cycle; coenzyme A combined with pyruvate | |
| 22440038 | 3, 1, 1 | each turn of the Krebs Cycle produces __ NADH, __ FADH2, and __ ATP | |
| 22440039 | Outer Compartment | where does the ETC pump electrons to? | |
| 22440040 | Matrix | where does Krebs Cycle take place? | |
| 22440041 | Cristae Membrane | site of ETC and ATP Synthase | |
| 22499551 | Ethyl Alcohol and CO2 | alcohol fermentation converts pyruvate into what two substances? | |
| 22499552 | pyruvate, lactic | in lactic acid fermentation, _________ from glycolysis is reduced to form ______ acid | |
| 22499553 | oxidized | in fermentation, NADH is ______ back to NAD+ |
