New cards

Cell uses — reactions to transfer energy from one substance to another substance

Redox (Reductions and Oxidation)

2
New cards

Your cells perform reactions that transfer the energy in the food molecules to specific molecules. This reduce these cellular molecule to increase their energy content. these reactions are called..

Redox reactions (Oxidation/Reduction)

3
New cards

Which type of reaction in the cell adds useful energy to a substance?

Reduction reactions

4
New cards

Which form of a chemical contains more energy

Reduced reactions

5
New cards

Each of your cells contains many mitochondria to increase it capacity to make

ATP by cellular respiration

6
New cards

Energy rich molecule is known as a rich carbohydrate

Pyruvate

7
New cards

Pyruvate oxidation produce the Energy-Rich

  • NADH

  • Acetyl Coenzyme A

8
New cards

In which organelle are the enzymes that form pyruvate oxidation located?

  • Mitochondria, specifically in the mitochondrial matrix.

9
New cards

Where in the mitochondrion are the enzymes that form pyruvate oxidation located?

  • Matrix : in the MitochondralMitochondrial matrix, where enzymes facilitate the conversion of pyruvate to Acetyl CoA.

10
New cards

Thiamine is a Vitamin B1 enzyme cofactor found in bread, cereals and milk. This is intended to increase the efficiency of

ATP Synthesis (cellular respiration)

11
New cards

Energy rich molecules made in the krebs cycle

  • FADH2

  • GTP

  • NAGH

12
New cards

Enzyme used to coverts GTP to ATP

Nucleoside diphosphate kinase

13
New cards

Oxidation and reductions reactions are called

Redox reactions

14
New cards

Redox reactions

release and transfer useful energy from food molecules

15
New cards

Redox reactions transfer useful energy from food to molecules to process

  • ADP - ATP

  • GDP - GTP

  • FAD- FADH2 (Energy-Rich Molecule Used To Make ATP In The Mitochondrion)

  • NAD- NADH (Energy-Rich Molecule Used To Make ATP In The Mitochondrion)

16
New cards

— transfer energy from one substance to another substance

Redox reactions

17
New cards

— is the loss of one or more electrons

Oxidation

18
New cards

Oxidation — energy content

decreases as electrons are lost.

19
New cards

— is the gain of one or more electrons

Reduction

20
New cards

Reduction — the energy content

increases as electrons are gained.

21
New cards

— enable cells to use the energy in food molecules to synthesize energy- rich ATP, FADH 2, GTP, and NADH molecules.

Redox reactions (Oxidation and reduction)

22
New cards

Where does ATP Synthesis occur during cellular respiration?

The mitochondrion

23
New cards

Where does the Pyruvate and Krebs cycle occur?

The mitochondrion, specifically in the mitochondrial matrix.

24
New cards

Where will electron transport chain (ETC0 most likely occur in?

The inner mitochondrial membrane.

25
New cards

How is pyruvate imported into Mitochondria

  • Voltage -Dependent Anion Channels

  • Mitochondrial pyruvate carrier

26
New cards

The differences between Voltage-Dependent Anion Channels and Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier

Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier transports pyruvate across the inner mitochondrial membrane and Voltage-Dependent Anion Channels transport pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial membrane

27
New cards

— occurs in the mitochondrion matrix when oxygen is available

Pyruvate oxidation

28
New cards

The enzymes of pyruvate oxidations produce

acetyl-CoA, NADH Molecule

29
New cards

One carbon dioxide is a — products during pyruvate oxidation.

waste

30
New cards

Why should CO2 be a waste and live our body?

Because it is a byproduct of cellular respiration that must be removed to maintain pH balance and prevent toxicity.

31
New cards

What kind of cofactors does Pyruvate oxidation enzymes require

Vitamin B cofactors

32
New cards

Another name for Krebs Cycle is

the Citric Acid Cycle

33
New cards

The Krebs Cycle occurs where?

The mitochondrion Matrix

34
New cards

What are the three energy rich molecules does The Krebs Cycle produce

  • FADH2

  • GTP

  • NADH

35
New cards

The Krebs Cycle produces —- CO2 molecules from Acetyl CoA As Metabolic Waste Products

Two Carbon Dioxide

36
New cards

Cells use the energy rich product krebs cycle to make —

ATP

37
New cards

The Krebs

Cycle’S products make ATP Molecules in the following

  • 1 NADH - 2.5 TO 3 ATP

  • 1 FADH = 1.5 to 2 ATP

  • Nucleoside-Diphosphate kinase converts 1 GTP to 1 ATP

38
New cards

What converts 1GTP to 1 ATP

Nucleoside-Diphosphate kinase

39
New cards

Your cells use Krebs cycle and Glycolysis substrates to make

  • Amino Acid

  • Carbohydrates

  • Lipids

  • Nucleotides

40
New cards

— is both anabolic and catabolic which is known to be amphibolic

The Krebs cycle
