What is an autotroph?
An organism that can produce its own food
What is substrate-level phosphorylation?
The process of adding an inorganic phosphate group to ADP directly
What is oxidative phosphorylation?
The process of making a lot of ATP through the reduction of electron carriers in the electron transport chain and the proton gradient
Do oxidized molecules or reduced molecules have more chemical energy?
Reduced
What are the four stages of cellular respiration?
