| 6026819915 | Cellular Respiration | The process that releases energy (ATP) by breaking down glucose. (converts food molecules (glucose) into a form usable (ATP) by the organism) |  | 0 |
| 6026819916 | Aerobic respiration | Converting glucose into ATP in the presence of oxygen. Glycolysis, Kreb's cycle, ETC, total of 36-38 ATP, Location: mitochondria |  | 1 |
| 6026819917 | Anaerobic Respiration | Converting glucose into ATP without the presence of oxygen. Glycolysis only, Net ATP=2, Location: cytoplasm | 2 | |
| 6026819918 | Alcoholic Fermentation | Type of anaerobic respiration used by organisms such as yeast to recycle products of glycolysis. Alcohol and Carbon Dioxide made, NO additional ATP made. Used in making beer, bread and wine |  | 3 |
| 6026819919 | Lactic Acid Respiration | Type of anaerobic respiration used by organisms such as bacteria to recycle products of glycolysis. Lactic acid made, NO additional ATP made. Used in making cheese and yogurt |  | 4 |
| 6026819920 | Glycolysis | First stage of anaerobic AND anaerobic cellular respiration. Breaks glucose down into two pyruvic acid molecules, net gain of 2 ATP. |  | 5 |
| 6026819921 | ATP | Adenosine triphosphate. Energy. |  | 6 |
| 6026819922 | Pyruvate | 3 carbon sugar produced when glucose is split during glycolysis | 7 | |
| 6026819923 | Mitochondria | Organelle found in all organisms that is the site of aerobic cellular respiration |  | 8 |
| 6026819924 | ATP synthase | Protein that helps make ATP | 9 | |
| 6026819925 | Krebs Cycle | Step in aerobic respiration that takes pyruvate from glycolysis to produce carbon dioxide and high energy electrons. Takes place in mitochondria. Net gain of 2 ATP. |  | 10 |
| 6026819926 | Electron Transport Chain | Step of aerobic respiration that take the high energy electrons from the Krebs cycle to change ADP to ATP. 34 ATP is made | 11 | |
| 6026819927 | Anaerobic Respiration | Does not use oxygen |  | 12 |
| 6026819928 | Aerobic Respiration | Uses oxygen |  | 13 |
| 6026819929 | Fermentation | When oxygen is NOT present in anaerobic cellular respiration. |  | 14 |
| 6026819930 | Glycolysis | The first step of cellular respiration | | 15 |
| 6026819931 | Cytoplasm | Place where cells perform glycolysis |  | 16 |
| 6026819932 | Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport Chain | Processes occurring in the Mitochondria Steps 2 and 3 of Cellular Respiration. |  | 17 |
| 6026819933 | Definition of Cellular Respiration | The process of breaking the chemical bonds of glucose into energy. |  | 18 |
| 6026819934 | Cellular Respiration Chemical Equation | C6H12O2 + 6O2 ------> 6CO2 + 6H20 + Energy (ATP) | 19 |
