The purpose of cellular respiration in a eukaryotic cell is to
break down carbohydrates to provide ATP for the cell.
The process by which glucose is split into pyruvate producing ATP and NADH.
Glycolysis
The process by which glucose is split to produce ATP and lactic acid or ethanol.
Fermentation
The reactants of Cellular Repiration
glucose and oxygen
The products of cellular respiration
Carbon dioxide, water, ATP
The four stages of cellular respiration
glycolysis, link, krebs, oxidative phosphorylation
The amount of ATP produced in Glycolysis
2 ATP
At the end of cellular respiration, oxygen is (oxidized/reduced)
reduced
What is the final electron acceptor for cellular respiration
oxygen
Which macromolecule produces the most ATP per gram?
fats
A term for metabolic pathways that release stored energy by breaking down complex molecules is
catabolic pathways
Besides ATP what else is produced during glycolysis
NADH and Pyruvate
This term refers to the production of ATP without oxygen being present
anaerobic
What is the equation for cellular respiration
Glucose + Oxygen-----> Carbon dioxide + water + energy
Besides ATP what else is produced during Krebs
Carbon dioxide, NADH and FADH2
NADH is the _____ form of NAD+
reduced
