SCC bio ch.9

cellular resperation

QuestionAnswer
whats the main energy source in cells? ATP
how long does a cells energy source last? between 30 seconds and a few minutes at most
where does glucose ultimately come from? the sun
what are the 4 steps of cellular respiration. glycolysis: pyruvate processing: citric acid cycle: electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation: [know locations inside of the cell where each step occurs][and know the inputs and outputs for each step]
substrate-level phosphorylation a type of metabolic reaction that results in the formation of ATP or GTP by the direct transfer and donation of a phosphoryl group to adenosine diphosphate or guanosine diphosphate from a phosphorylated reactive intermediate
whats the purpose of the NADH and FADH2 electron carriers?where do the drop off their electron? to transfer the electrons between molecules in the electron transport chain.
chemiosmosis production of ATP from the proton gradient
describe the electron transport chain. a group of molecules chained together in which the electron carriers [NADH and FADH2] transport electrons creating a proton gradient which ultimately creats ATP.
describe the formation of the proton gradient and where it occurs. electrons bouncing between molecules causes the formation of the proton gradient in the intermembrane space in a mitochondria.
what is the proton gradient's purpose. to form ATP, which is the energy source of cells.
what does ATP synthases do? ATP synthasis is an enzyme that makes ATP from the proton gradient
oxidative phosphorylation the formation of ATP in the final step in cellular respiration.
glycolysis the breakdown of glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate [a small amout of ATP is made](NAD+ is reduced to NADH[NADH is an electron carrier])
pryuvate processing pryuvate is converted into acetyl [co2 is produced]more NAD+ is reduced to NADH
citric acid cycle acetyl is converted into 2 molecules of co2. more atp is produced NADH are made FAD is reduced to FADH2[another elecrton carrier]
electron transport chain [ETC] and oxidative phosphorylation NADH and FADH2 take the electrons to a chain of molecules[the ETC] electrons "bounce" between moleculescause the formation of a H+ gradient(proton gradient) the H+ gradient is used to form ATP.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
