Flashcards on Cellular Respiration
Click on the flashcard to see the answer
What is cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is the process of converting glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.
Where does cellular respiration occur in cells?
Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of cells.
What are the three main stages of cellular respiration?
The three main stages of cellular respiration are glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.
What is the net yield of ATP molecules in glycolysis?
The net yield of ATP molecules in glycolysis is 2.
What molecule is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain?
Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain.
What is the purpose of cellular respiration?
The purpose of cellular respiration is to produce ATP - the energy currency of the cell.
What is the equation for cellular respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
What is the waste product of cellular respiration?
The waste product of cellular respiration is carbon dioxide.
How does cellular respiration differ from photosynthesis?
Cellular respiration involves breaking down glucose to release energy, while photosynthesis involves using energy from sunlight to build glucose.
What type of organisms perform cellular respiration?
All living organisms, including plants and animals, perform cellular respiration.
What is the role of NAD+ in cellular respiration?
NAD+ acts as an electron carrier, accepting electrons during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle.
What is the role of the electron transport chain in cellular respiration?
The electron transport chain uses the energy from electron carriers to produce ATP.
What are the products of the Krebs cycle?
The products of the Krebs cycle are carbon dioxide, ATP, and electron carriers (NADH and FADH2).
What is the main source of glucose for cellular respiration?
The main source of glucose for cellular respiration is carbohydrates.
What is anaerobic respiration?
Anaerobic respiration is the process of producing energy without oxygen.
