Question | Answer |
The minimum energy requirement of an organism | BASAL METABOLIC RATE |
The first stage of aerobic respiration | GLYCOLYSIS |
The main respiratory substrate | GLUCOSE |
The addition of Hydrogen to a substance | REDUCTION |
The addition of electrons to a substance | REDUCTION |
The coenzyme that removes hydrogen atoms during glycolysis | NAD |
What do we call the addition of phosphate when the energy comes from the substrates? | SUBSTRATE LEVEL PHOSPHORYLATION |
The end products of glycolysis | 2ATP, 2X2 hydrogen atoms, 2X pyruvate |
Is oxygen used during glycolysis? | NO |
If oxygen is available, what happens to the pyruvate? | LINK REACTION |
Which TWO chemical processes take place in the Link reaction? | DECARBOXYLATION, DEHYDROGENATION/REDUCTION |
What products are formed in the Link reaction? | CO2, REDUCED NAD, ACETYL CO-A |
What is the reaction that follows the link reaction? | KREBS CYCLE |
What are the products made during the Krebs cycle? | CO2, REDUCED NAD,ATP, REDUCED FAD, A 4-C COMPOUND |
