Cellular respiration
number of NADH produced in glycolysis
2
How many ATP molecules are produced by the citric acid cycle for every glucose molecule metabolized?
2 ATP
output of citric acid cycle
2 FADH2, 6NADH, 2 ATP, 2 CO2
Number of NADH produced from citric acid cycle
6
location of cellular respiration
cytoplasm
The starting molecule for glycolysis is
glucose
Where energy comes from in cellular respiration
glucose
reactants in cellular respiration
glucose and oxygen
location of electron transport chain
inner mitochondrial membrane
Number of FADH2 produced from citric acid cycle
2
Number of net ATP created from glycolysis
2
Number of net ATP produced by citric acid cycle
2
Starting molecule for citric acid cycle
Acetyl CoA
pyruvate is oxidized creating
Acetyl CoA
equation for cellular respiration
C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
types of cells for cellular respiration
Eukaryotes and prokaryotes
Ending molecule for citric acid cycle
NADH
Final electron acceptor in cellular respiration
Oxygen
Which molecule catches the spent electrons? What else does it interact with and what is formed?
Oxygen molecule catches the spent electrons. As it accepts the electron it interacts with two protons to become water
What happens to the electrochemical gradient of protons? Where do the protons want to move?
When high energy electrons pass through the membrane, hydrogen drive is created. The protons then want to move back into the membrane.
Is the electron transport chain aerobic or anaerobic?
aerobic
Is the citric acid cycle aerobic or anaerobic?
aerobic (requires oxygen)
Is glycolysis aerobic or anaerobic?
can be both
products of cellular respiration
carbon dioxide and water
location of citric acid cycle
mitochondrial matrix
Ending molecule of glycolysis
pyruvate
goal of cellular respiration
to convert the chemical energy in food (glucose) to chemical energy stored in ATP
