| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What does fermentation and anaerobic respiration do? | It enables cells to produce ATP w/o oxygen |
| Can the ETC chain operate without oxygen? | NO |
| What does glycolysis work with to produce ATP when there is no oxygen? | Anaerobic respiration or fermentation |
| What final electron acceptor does anaerobic respiration use? | Something besides O2, like sulfate |
| What does fermentation use instead of ETC? | It uses substrate-level phosphorylation |
| What are 2 types of fermentation? | 1. Alcohol 2. Lactic acid |
| 2 Steps of alcohol fermentation: | 1. Release CO2 2. Pyruvate> ethanol |
| What is alcohol fermentation most commonly used by? | Yeast |
| Is yeast an obligate anaerobe? | No it is facultative. |
| What do proteins need to be digested to in catabolism? Which cycles can they feed? | amino acids. glycolysis or citric acid |
| What are fats digested to for glycolysis? What about for generating acetyl CoA? | glycerol. fatty acids |
| What breaks down fatty acids? | beta oxidation |
| how much more ATP does an oxidized g of fat produce over an oxidized g of carb? | 2x as much |
| What happens in biosynthesis? | The body uses small molecules to build up other substances. |
| Where does biosynthesis come from? | food, glycolysis, or citric acid cycle |
| What is common for metabolic control? | feedback inhibition |
| If ATP concentration drops, what happens to respiration? | It speeds up |
