The summarized equation for cell respiration is: In cell respiration, the energy which is released by the oxidation of glucose is picked up in the high-energy phosphate bonds of the molecule called ________. So, the purpose of the cell's oxidation of glucose is to maintain a steady supply of (ATP,ADP) to accomplish the (exergonic, endergonic) cell processes. Cell respiration takes place in the cells of (plants, animals, both plants and animals) Glycolysis During glycolysis, the coenzyme NAD+, the (oxidized, reduced) form, is converted to NADH, the (oxidized, reduced) form. The energy released from the breaking and oxidation of glucose is used to convert 2 ADPs to 2 ATPs by a reaction called substrate level ________. By the end of glycolysis, glucose is split into two 3 Carbon molecules which finally become ________. Citric Acid cycle

The three stages of cellular respiration are glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation and the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation consists of the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis. Describe how chemiosmosis couples the electron transport chain to ATP synthesis.

Write the general equation of cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O Where does cellular respiration occur? Aerobic cells in mitochondria. Why are NADH, FADH, and the electron transport chain important in cellular respiration? They help convert glucose to pyruvate. What causes the enzyme ATP synthase to change from inactive to active state? pH release of ATP. How do aerobic respiration, anaerobic respiration, and fermentation differ in regards to the following: final electron acceptor, methods of ATP generation, and number of ATP molecules produced per glucose molecule? Aerobic respiration: Oxygen, oxidative phosphorylation, 36-38 ATP. Anaerobic respiration: Inorganic molecules, substrate-level phosphorylation, 2 ATP. Fermentation: Organic molecules, substrate-level phosphorylation, 2 ATP. List the differences between substrate-level phosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation. Substrate-level phosphorylation: Direct transfer of phosphate group to ADP. Oxidative phosphorylation: Indirect transfer of phosphate group through electron transport chain to ADP.
