Structure A is _____.

ATP synthase

The overall equation for the cellular respiration of glucose is

The O2 required for __________ is supplied by __________.

Cellular Respiration; Breathing

Lungs are to breathing as _____ are to cellular respiration.

Mitochondria

What molecule is indicated by the letter D?

Oxygen

What is the role of oxygen in cellular respiration?

Oxygen accepts high-energy electrons after they are stripped from glucose.

Which of these enters the citric acid cycle (also called the Krebs cycle)?

acetyl CoA

The electron transport chain is, in essence, a series of redox reactions that conclude cellular respiration. During these redox reactions, __________.

electrons are transferred through a series of electron acceptors embedded within the inner mitochondrial membrane

In cellular respiration, glucose _____ electrons, whereas _____ electrons.

loses ... oxygen gains

Primarily, cellular respiration serves to _____.

make ATP to power the cell's activities

The electron transport chain is a series of electron carrier molecules. In eukaryotes, where can this structure be found?

mitochondria

The enzymes of the citric acid cycle are located in the

mitochondrial matrix and inner mitochondrial membrane.

Where do the reactions of the citric acid cycle occur in eukaryotic cells?

mitochondrion

After glycolysis but before the citric acid cycle,

pyruvate is oxidized

Cellular respiration accomplishes two major processes: (1) it breaks glucose down into smaller molecules, and (2) it harvests the chemical energy released and stores it in ATP molecules. By the end of _____, the breakdown of glucose is complete; most ATP molecules are produced during _____.

the Citric Acid cycle ... electron transport

The proximate (immediate) source of energy for oxidative phosphorylation is _____.

kinetic energy that is released as hydrogen ions diffuse down their concentration gradient

A molecule that functions as the electron donor in a redox reaction __________.

loses electrons and becomes oxidized

For each glucose that enters glycolysis, _____ NADH enter the electron transport chain.

total of 10 NADH are produced -- (2 in glycolysis, 2 in acetyl CoA production, and 6 in the citric acid cycle.)

In cellular respiration, which of the following outcomes is the result of electrons moving through the electron transport chain (or its components)?

A proton gradient is formed. (The energy released by the electron transport chain is used to create a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This allows the production of ATP by chemiosmosis.)

In glycolysis, what starts the process of glucose breakdown?

ATP

The energy released from the redox reactions in the electron transport chain is used by the cell to make ___

ATP

best describe the electron transport chain?

Electrons pass from one carrier to another, releasing a little energy at each step.

Which of these is NOT a product of glycolysis?

FADH2

In cellular respiration, organic molecules become oxidized as ____ picks up electrons and H+ and becomes reduced to NADH.

NAD+

At the end of the citric acid cycle, most of the energy remaining from the original glucose is stored in

NADH

During electron transport, energy from _____ is used to pump hydrogen ions into the _____.

NADH and FADH2 ... inter-membrane space

A small amount of ATP is made in glycolysis _____.

by the transfer of a phosphate group from a fragment of glucose to ADP (substrate-level phosphorylation)

By-products of cellular respiration include

citric acid cycle

What process occurs in Box B?

citric acid cycle

During cellular respiration, NADH

is carried by electrons

In cellular respiration, most ATP molecules are produced by _____.

oxidative phosphorylation

In cellular respiration, glucose becomes ____ to carbon dioxide (CO2) as it loses electrons (in hydrogen atoms).

oxidized

NADH delivers electrons to an electron transport chain, which passes the electrons through carrier molecules in a series of redox reactions to the final electron acceptor. ____

oxygen

In cellular respiration, oxygen becomes ______ to water (H2O) as it gains electrons (in hydrogen atoms) that came from glucose.

reduced

Glycolysis is the only stage of cellular respiration that __________.

requires ATP to make ATP

In glycolysis, ATP molecules are produced by _____.

substrate-level phosphorylation

Oxidative phosphorylation could not occur without glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, because _____.

these two stages supply the electrons needed for the electron transport chain

three ... two

In electron transport, high-energy electrons "fall" to oxygen through a series of reactions. The energy released is used to _____.
