**1. Hexokinase transfers a phosphate group from ATP to glucose, making it more chemically reactive. The charge on the phosphate also traps the sugar in the cell 2. Glucose 6-phosphate is converted to fructose 6-phosphate **3. Phosphofructokinase transfers a phosphate group from ATP to the opposite end of the sugar, investing a second molecule of ATP. A key step for regulation of glycolysis. 4. Aldolase cleaves the sugar molecule into two different three carbon sugars 5. Conversion between HDAP and G3P: This reaction never reaches equilibrium GSP is used in the next step as fast as it forms Cell spends ATP

Explain the difference between fermentation and aerobic respiration

-

What are the products of the citric acid cycle after 2 cycles (the breakdown of one glucose molecule)

-2 ATP -4 CO2 -6 NADH (NAD+ ----> NADH - electron carriers) -2 FADH2 (FAD----> FADH2)

What are the final products of glycolysis during the catabolism of one glucose molecule

-2 pyruvate molecules (a 3-C molecule) -4 ATP (net gain of 2 ATP) -2NAD+----> 2NADH -2H2O

Label Energy flow and chemical recycling in ecosystems

-Light energy -photosynthesis in chloroplasts -cellular respiration in mitochondria -ATP

What are the products of this conversion

-Pyruvate bonds with coenzyme A -2 Acetyl CoA are produced -2-C molecule -2 CO2 molecules are released from the cell -2 NADH molecules

aerobic respiration

-oxygen is consumed as a reactant along with the organic fuel -A catabolic process that makes a limited amount of ATP from glucose without an electron transport chain and that produces a characteristic end product, such as ethyl alcohol or lactic acid

fermentation:

-partial degradation of sugars or other organic fuel that occurs without the use of oxygen -A catabolic process that makes a limited amount of ATP from glucose without an electron transport chain that produces a characteristic end product such as ethyl alcohol or lactic acid

What is the function of the electron transport chain in cellular respiration

-respiration uses an electron transport chain to break the fall of electrons to oxygen into several energy releasing steps -it is a sequence of electron carrier molecules that shuttle electrons down a series of redox reactions that release energy used to make ATP

What is the meaning of glycolysis? What occurs in this step of cellular respiration?

-sugar splitting -glucose splits into two 3 carbon sugars that are oxidized and their remaining atoms are rearranged to form two molecules of pyruvate.

Write the chemical equation of cellular respiration

1 glucose + 6 oxygen ---> 6 carbon dioxide + 6 water + cellular energy (ATP + heat)

At any given time, the amount of ATP in a human would sustain life for only about

1 minute

Glycolysis is thought to have evolved very early in the evolution of life on earth. Provide three pieces of evidence that justify this hypothesis

1. Ancient prokaryotes are thought to have used glycolysis to make ATP long before oxygen was present 2. Cyanobacteria produced this oxygen as a by produce of photosynthesis so early prokaryotes may have not generated ATP just from glycolysis 3. Glycolysis is the most widespread metabolic pathway among earth's organisms 4. The location of glycolysis implied great antiquity- pathway does not require any of the membrane enclosed organelles of the eukaryotic cell, which evolved 1 billion years after the first prokaryotic cell

Using figure 9.14 in your text, explain the overall concept of how ATP synthase uses the flow of hydrogen ions to product ATP

1. H+ ions flowing down their gradient enter a channel in a stator, which is anchored in the membrane 2. H+ ions enter binding sites within a rotor, changing the shape of each subunit so that the rotor spins within the membrane 3. Each H+ ion makes one complete turn before leaving the rotor and passing through a second channel in the stator into the mitochondrial matrix 4. Spinning of the rotor causes an internal rod to spin as well. This rod extends like a stalk into the knob below it, which is held stationary by part of the stator 5. Turning of the rod activates catalytic sites in the knob that produce ATP and ADP and Pi

The second phase in glycolysis is the energy payoff phase. Label the phase and complete the figure. Note that it provides both ATP and NADH. Look at Figure 9.9 from your text to locate the two steps where ATP is formed and one step where NADH is formed

1. Hexokinase transfers a phosphate group from ATP to glucose, making it more chemically reactive. The charge on the phosphate also traps the sugar in the cell **2. Glucose 6-phosphate is converted to fructose 6-phosphate 3. Phosphofructokinase transfers a phosphate group from ATP to the opposite end of the sugar, investing a second molecule of ATP. A key step for regulation of glycolysis. **4. Aldolase cleaves the sugar molecule into two different three carbon sugars 5. Conversion between HDAP and G3P: This reaction never reaches equilibrium GSP is used in the next step as fast as it forms ATP is produced by substrate level phosphorylation and NAD+ is reduced to NADH by electrons released from the oxidation of glucose

Why is the total count above 30 or 32 molecules rather than a specific number

1. phosphorylation and the redox reactions are not directly coupled to each other, so the ratio of the number of NADH molecules to the number of ATP is not a whole number 2. the ATP yield varies depending on the type of shuttle used to transport electrons from the cytosol into the mitochondrion. 3. The use of the proton motive force generated by the redox reactions of respiration to drive other kinds of work

To enter the citric acid cycle, pyruvate must enter the mitochondria by active transport. These things are necessary to *convert pyruvate to acetyl CoA.* Complete the missing parts of the following figure and then explain the three steps in the conversion process

Carried out by a multi-enzyme complex that catalyzes three reactions step 1: Pyruvates carboxyl group which is already fully oxidized and thus little chemical energy, is removed and given off as a molecule of CO2. This is the first step in which CO2 is released during respiration step 2: The remaining two-carbon fragment is oxidized, forming acetate. The extracted electrons are transferred to NAD+, storing energy in the form of NADH step 3: coenzyme A is attached via its sulfer atom to the acetate, forming acetyl CoA, which has a high potential energy. The reaction of acetyl CoA to yield lower energy products is higher exergonic

What is the role of the electron transport chain in forming the H+ gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane

Certain members of the electron transport chain accept and release protons (H+ ) along with electrons. (The aqueous solutions inside and surrounding the cell are a ready source of H+ .) At certain steps along the chain, electron transfers cause H+ to be taken up and released into the surrounding solution. In eukaryotic cells, the electron carriers are spatially arranged in the inner mitochondrial membrane in such a way that H+ is accepted from the mitochondrial matrix and deposited in the intermembrane space. The H+ gradient that results is referred to as a proton-motive force, emphasizing the capacity of the gradient to perform work. The force drives H+ back across the membrane through the H+ channels provided by ATP synthases.
