Question | Answer |
cellular respiration | the process of converting the carbon in sugars to electrons to create atp |
kiloccalories | a measure of the quantity of heat to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 degree c |
redox reaction | reduction and oxidation reaction |
oxidation | the subtraction of electron molecules by removing oxygen |
reduction | the addition of electrons via addition of hydrogen |
nad+ | a molecule capable of reducing to nadh a carrying atom for the electron transport chain, |
glycolysis | the process of breaking down six carbon glucose or another simple sugar to two three carbon pyruvates |
citric acid ( krebs) cycle | the process of oxidizing pyruvate molecules to form electrons and a waste product of co2 |
oxidative phosphorylation | the process of creating a positive environment outside of the cell that turns the atp synthase via chemiosmosis |
chemiosmosis | the potential energy of the positive outside cell conduces osmosis that spins the atp synthase creating atp |
substrate level phosphorylation | the process of forming atp by combining the phosphate group of a substrate with a molecule of adp |
acetyl coenzyme a ( acetyl coA) | a coenzyme produced by the krebs cycle that is formed by combining coenzyme a with a two carbon group |
ATP synthase | the enzyme embedded in the cell membrane that produces atp |
lactic acid fermentation | as our cells work anaerobically nadh can be synthetically produced but pyruvates become lactate |
alcoholic fermentation | fermenting for the purpose of creating alcoholic beverages and ethanol |
