glycolysis

An organism that must consume other organisms to obtain nourishment is called a(n) ____.

heterotroph

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

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

sugar + O2 --> CO2 + H2O + ATP

____ is a chemical process that uses light energy from the sun to build organic molecules.

Photosynthesis

Chemical reactions that require oxygen are called ____ while those that do not require oxygen are considered ____.

Which of the following describes cellular respiration?

Oxidation and reduction (redox) reactions are involved in cellular respiration.

Which statement describes the citric acid cycle?

This process produces some ATP and carbon dioxide in the mitochondrion.

Which statement describes glycolysis?

This process splits glucose in half and produces 2 ATPs for each glucose.

Which statement describes the electron transport chain?

This process uses energy captured from electrons flowing to oxygen to produce most of the ATPs in cellular respiration
