Help with exam 2
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The folded inner membranes inside a mitochondrion are called? | Cristae |
| Stage of aerobic respiration where pyruvate is broken down, releasing carbon dioxide and producing NADH, FADH2, and ATP. | Krebs Cycle |
| At the end of the electron transport chain, the electrons are added to molecular oxygen, reducing it to __________________. | Water (H2O) |
| ALL carbon atoms in pyruvate end up as part of the gas __________ following the Krebs cycle.. | Carbon Dioxide (CO2) |
| _____________ is a process that starts both aerobic respiration, and lactic acid fermentation and ethanol fermentation. | Glycolysis |
| The NADH and FADH2 produced during the Krebs cycle pass their electrons down the _________________ to produce a H+ ion gradient. | Electron transport chain |
| The passage of H+ ions through __________________ causes it to spin and produce ATP. | ATP Synthase |
| This describes a process that requires oxygen: _________ | Aerobic |
| Type of fermentation that occurs in human muscles under conditions of low oxygen, such as occurs during strenuous exercise. | Lactic acid fermentation |
| The process being diagrammed |
