What is cellular reaction?
The process of cells breaking down sugar to form ATP
What do the organic molecules do?
They break down into carbon dioxide and water
What do organic molecules make?
As they are being oxided they make carbon dioxide they oxygen gets reduced to make water
How many steps are in cellular reaction for breaking down?
Step 1 is Glycolysis
Step 2 is Kreb’s Cycle
Step 3 is Electron Transport Chain
What is Glycolysis?
The process of breaking down glucose into smaller pieces known as pyruvates.
What is the Kreb’s Cycle
The process of breaking down pyruvates into carbon dioxide
What is the Electron Transport Chain?
The process of stripping electrons to make ATP
What do NAD+ and NADH act like?
They act like electron carriers
How many electrons do they each carry?
They carry two electrons
Where do NADH and related FADH2 carry the electrons to?
They carry electrons to the last step
