Cell Energy
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Cellular Respiration | glucose and oxygen produce ATP energy, water ,and carbon dioxide |
| Steps to cellular respiration | 1.Glycolysis 2.Krebs cycle 3.Electron transport |
| Lactic Acid Fermentation | occurs in muscles during rapid breathing and exercise: breaks down glucose to ATP with low O2 in the blood |
| Alcoholic Fermentation | breaks down glucose without O2, produces ethyl alcohol |
| Aerobic | Oxygen required |
| Anaerobic | No oxygen required |
| Cytoplasm | Fluid between organelles where glycolysis occurs |
| Mitochondria | Organelle where cellular respiration occurs |
| Cristae | Folds inside the mitochondria; where electron transport chain occurs |
| Matrix | Space within the mitochondria; where Krebs Cycle happens |
| C6H12O6 | Glucose (i.e. sugar) |
