fermentation
the anaerobic process by which ATP is produced
Krebs cycle
the part of cellular respiration that breaks down pyruvate to produce electron carriers(NADH and FADH2) that are used in the electron transport chain
anaerobic
processes that do not require oxygen to occur
glycolysis
the first part of cellular respiration where glucose is broken down into two pyruvate molecules and two net ATP are produced
lactic acid
the product of fermentation in many types of cells, including human cells
Aerobic
processes that do require oxygen to occur
cellular respiration
the type of combustion reaction that occurs when oxygen is available to react with glucose to produce carbon dioxide, water and ATP
