9
New cards

what do enzymes do

enzymes brings reactants together so they dont have to expend energy

10
New cards

what is an example of enzymes

By binding reactants at the active site, enzymes also position reactants correctly, so they do not have to overcome intermolecular forces that would otherwise push them apart. This allows the molecules to interact with less energy.

21

25
New cards

1st stage

reactants: 2 ATP, Glucose, NAD+.

Produces: 2 net ATP, (4 ATP total), 2 NADH, 2 Pyruvate milecules

26
New cards

results of Glycolysis

Energy is needed at the start of glycolysis to split the glucose molecule into two pyruvate molecules. These two molecules go on to stage II of cellular respiration. The energy to split glucose is provided by two molecules of ATP.

27
New cards

Krebs cycle requires

oxygen

28
New cards

Krebs cycle’s first product.

Is citric acid

29
New cards

Pyruvate

Has three carbon atoms and is split apart before the krebs cycle begins.

30
New cards

what are the steps for the Krebs cycle

  1. The Krebs cycle begins when acetyl-CoA combines with a four-carbon molecule called OAA. This produces citric acid, which has six carbon atoms.

  2. After citric acid forms, it goes through a series of reactions that release energy. The energy is captured in molecules of NADH, ATP, and FADH2. Carbon dioxide is also released as a waste product of these reactions.

  3. The final step of the Krebs cycle regenerates OAA, the molecule that began the Krebs cycle. This molecule is needed for the next turn through the cycle. Two turns are needed because glycolysis produces two pyruvate molecules when it splits

31

40
New cards

what happens in the ETC stage

41
New cards

how/where are High-energy Electrons released?

High-energy electrons are released from NADH and FADH2, as they move along ETC.

42
New cards

ATP synthase acts as a channel protein, helping the hydrogen ions to cross the membrane.

43
New cards

how many ATP does ETC produce?

Around 32-34

44
New cards

what is the importance of oxygen?

After passing through the electron transport chain, the “used” electrons combine with oxygen to form water. ( H2O)
