a proton gradient.

The majority of the energy captured in the citric acid cycle is in the form of:

CO2, FADH2, NADH, and ATP

The first phase of glycolysis requires the input of two ATP molecules. It is therefore: (exergonic or endergonic)

Endergonic

Recall that fatty acids (such as palmitic acid) can yield substantially more ATP when compared with a similar weight of glucose. Why doesn't aerobic respiration rely solely on fatty acids as energy sources, rather than glucose?

Fatty acids cannot be used by some vital tissues in the human body, such as the brain.

Which of the following is one explanation for why glycolysis is believed to have arisen very early in the evolution of life?

It doesn't need oxygen

NAD+; NADH

What product of the pyruvate oxidation stage of cellular respiration will have the two electrons that are lost from pyruvate?

NADH

True/ False- When glucose is broken down in a cell, all of the energy it stores is not released simultaneously but is instead released in a stepwise process.

True

True/False- Both NAD+ and molecular oxygen serve as electron acceptors in cellular respiration

True

True/False- Conditions that reduce the strength of the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane slow the production of ATP by ATP synthase.

True

True/False- The ATP produced during glycolysis is the result of substrate-level phosphorylation.

True

Glycolysis is:

anaerobic.

Lactic acid fermentation occurs in:

bacteria and animals.

catabolic

During glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, and the citric acid cycle, the chemical energy in glucose is transferred to:

electron carriers and ATP

Proteins can be broken down to extract energy. They are typically broken down into amino acids, which then enter cellular respiration via:

glycolysis or the citric acid cycle.

In eukaryotes, fermentation takes place:

in the cytoplasm.

What can decrease PFK-1 activity?

increased concentration of citrate

Pyruvate oxidation is an important stage in cellular respiration because:

it links glycolysis with the citric acid cycle.

On completion of either ethanol or lactic acid fermentation, the yield is only two ATP molecules per glucose molecule. The remaining chemical energy from the glucose is found primarily in:

lactic acid and ethanol.

In glycolysis, ATP is synthesized by:

substrate-level phosphorylation.

We can tell from their structure that fatty acids are a good source of energy because of:

the large number of carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds they contain.

In addition to destabilizing glucose for subsequent breakdown, what else does phosphorylation of glucose do?

traps glucose inside the cell

Although glycolysis produces four molecules of ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation, the net gain of ATP for the cell is two molecules. This is because:

two molecules are used in the initial stage.
