Fermentation enables cells to make ATP in the absence of ______
Oxygen
Fermentation is based on ____ the one energy-harvesting process common to all Iife: early prokaryotes probably used it long before Earth's atmosphere contained oxygen.
glycolysis
The ATP yield of fermentation is much ___ than that of aerobic respiration.
less
Fermentation generates two energy-rich ___ molecules for every molecule of glucose consumed.
ATP
Glycolysis alone requires no oxygen for ATP production, but it needs a way to recycle ____ without the help of the citric acid cycle and electron transport chain.
NAD+
Fermentation provides an _____ recycle as pathway that allows NADH to get rid of electrons and NAD+.
alternate
Fermenters replenish their supply of NAD by using NADH to oxidize _______
pyruvate
There are two main kinds of fermentation: lactic acid fermentation and ______ fermentation named for their end products.
alcoholic
When oxygen is scarce, human _____ cells can make ATP by lactic acid fermentation. Oxidation of pyruvate produces lactate as a waste product.
muscle
Bacterial ____ acid fermentation is also used to make cheese and yogurt.
lactic
Alcoholic fermentation uses a slightly different pathway that produces alcohol and ____ gas as end products.
carbon dioxide
Certain prokaryotes require anaerobic conditions and are poisoned by oxygen. They are called obligate ____
anaerobes
Many other bacteria and yeasts are ____ anaerobes; they make ATP by fermentation or oxidative phosphorylation, depending on whether oxygen is available.
facultative
Winemakers know that if they want yeasts to make alcohol, their wine vats must exclude ____
Oxygen
Generates most of the ATP formed by cellular respiration
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Begins the oxidation of glucose
glycolysis
Occurs outside the mitochondrion
Glycolysis
Produces four ATPs per glucose by substrate-level phosphorylation, but two ATPs per glucose are used to get it started
Glycolysis
Oxidizes NADH and FADH2, producing NAD and FAD
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Carried out by enzymes in the matrix (fluid) of the mitochondrion
Citric Acid Cycle
Here electrons and hydrogen combine with O, to form H₂O.
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Occurs along the inner mitochondrial membrane
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Generates most of the CO₂ produced by cellular respiration
Citric Acid Cycle
FADH, and NADH deliver high-energy electrons to this stage
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Where ATP synthase makes ATP
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Reduces NAD and FAD, producing NADH and FADH2
Citric Acid Cycle
Produces 28 to 32 molecules of ATP for every glucose consumed
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Where oxygen is consumed
Oxidative Phosphorylation
After pyruvate is oxidized, it enters this stage.
Citric Acid Cycle
Substance that is reduced as glucose is oxidized
NAD+
“splitting of sugar”
Glycolysis
Carries hydrogen and electrons from oxidation of glucose
NADH
When an enzyme transfers a phosphate from a substrate to ADP
Substrate-level phosphorylation
