Which is true of fermentation pathways? "In addition to phosphorylating ADP to make ATP, they... a) regenerate NADH and produce waste molecules that are more oxidized than pyruvate." b) oxidize NADH and produce waste molecules that are more reduced than pyruvate." c) oxidize NAD and produce waste molecules that are more oxidized than pyruvate."

Which of the following is TRUE about fermentation? Electrons are transferred from NADH to pyruvate molecule of ATP is produced by substrate-level phosphorylation: c It produces both NADH and FADH2 d. Cells prefer this process in the presence of oxygen It occurs in the mitochondrial matrix of a protozoans

Which one of the following statements is true of fermentation (Glycolysis + Pyruvate reduction/NADH oxidation)? Select one: a. It produces a net gain of ATP. b. It produces a net gain of NADH. c. It is an aerobic process. d. It can be performed only by bacteria. e. It produces more energy per glucose molecule than does aerobic respiration.

During the Krebs cycle: a) the products of glycolysis are further broken down, generating additional ATP and the high-energy electron carrier NADH. b) high-energy electron carriers pass their energy to molecules of sugar, which store them as potential energy. c) the products of glycolysis are further broken down, generating additional ATP and ethanol. d) cellular respiration can continue even in the absence of oxygen. e) the products of glycolysis are converted to acetyl-CoA.
