A & P 2 – EXAM 3 (1 APRIL 2026)


CHAPTER 3 — CELLULAR RESPIRATION


1. Know about Glycolysis, intermediate stage, citric acid cycle and electron transport chain

Glycolysis:

• Occurs: cytosol

• Anaerobic (does not require oxygen)

• Breaks glucose into pyruvate

• Produces a small amount of ATP.

• SUBSTRATE: Starting molecule (substrate) = glucose

• PRODUCT = pyruvate

• ATP: 2 net ATP produced

• CO-ENZYME PRODUCED = NADH

Intermediate stage:

• Converts pyruvate into acetyl-CoA in the mitochondria

• Links glycolysis to the citric acid cycle.

• SUBSTRATE: Starting molecule (substrate) = pyruvate

• PRODUCT = acetyl-CoA + CO₂

• ATP: 0 ATP produced

• CO-ENZYME PRODUCED = NADH

Citric acid cycle:

• Occurs in the mitochondrial matrix

• Generates electron carriers (NADH and FADH₂)

• Generates small ATP.

• SUBSTRATE: Starting molecule (substrate) = acetyl-CoA

• PRODUCT = CO₂

• ATP: 2 ATP total

• CO-ENZYME produced = NADH and FADH₂

The electron transport chain:

• Occurs in the cristae (inner mitochondrial membrane)

• Produces most ATP using oxygen (aerobic).

• Regenerates NAD+ so glycolysis can continue

• SUBSTRATE: Starting molecule (substrate) = NADH, FADH₂, oxygen

• PRODUCT = water

• ATP: Most ATP – major source

• CO-ENZYME produced = uses NADH and FADH₂



2. Know about substrate-level phosphorylation

• This is direct ATP production from a substrate.

• Occurs in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle

• Produces small amounts of ATP.



3. Know about oxidative phosphorylation

• This is indirect ATP production using NADH and FADH₂

• Occurs in the electron transport chain.

• Produces most ATP.



4. Know about acetyl-CoA

• Acetyl-CoA is formed from pyruvate and is the entry molecule into the citric acid cycle.

• It connects carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism.



5. Describe what happens to pyruvate with insufficient oxygen

• If oxygen is low, pyruvate is converted into lactate.

• This genenrates NAD+ so glycolysis can continue

6 Know pyruvate dehydrogenase

• This enzyme converts pyruvate into acetyl-CoA in the intermediate stage. It is a key control step.



6. Know what pyruvate is (not a enzyme but a molecule)

• Pyruvate is the end product of glycolysis.

• It is a 3-carbon molecule that either enters the mitochondria or becomes lactate.



7. Describe how other fuel molecules like fatty acids and amino acids are utilized to make ATP

• Fatty acids are broken down into acetyl-CoA and enter the citric acid cycle.

• Amino acids are deaminated (nitrogen removed), and their carbon skeleton enters cellular respiration at different points.

• All fuels ultimately feed into the pathway to produce ATP.




🚨 DIRECTLY MENTIONED = EXPECT QUESTIONS


1. Acetyl-CoA

She OPENED with this → very important

Know:

Product → becomes next substrate

Multi-enzyme chain

Negative feedback regulation

👉 End product (ATP) shuts pathway off

🔥 5. Allosteric inhibition (PFK)

She repeated this multiple times

Know:

ATP binds enzyme → changes shape

Shuts down glycolysis

👉 This is a classic trick question

🔥 6. ATP vs ADP

She slowed down here → important

Know:

ADP + phosphate → ATP (phosphorylation)

ATP → ADP (dephosphorylation)

👉 reversible

🔥 7. Substrate vs Oxidative phosphorylation

She clearly contrasted these

Know:

Substrate-level = direct (low ATP)

Oxidative = indirect via NADH/FADH₂ (HIGH ATP)

👉 She emphasized: indirect = most ATP

🔥 8. NAD⁺ / NADH

She spent time explaining this

Know:

NAD⁺ = accepts electrons

NADH = carries electrons

Feeds into ETC

👉 Required for ATP production

🔥 9. Glycolysis basics (but focus on control)

She did NOT want steps memorized

Know:

Occurs in cytosol

No oxygen required

2 ATP invested

👉 Control point:

PFK inhibited by ATP




🔥 10. Fate of pyruvate (VERY IMPORTANT)

She used exercise example → big signal

With oxygen:

→ acetyl-CoA → Krebs

Without oxygen:

→ lactate

👉 WHY:

Regenerate NAD⁺

👉 She tied this to:

Muscle soreness

Location: matrix

Produces:

NADH

FADH₂

ATP

CO₂

👉 Regulation:

Citrate synthase

Controlled by ATP levels

🔥 13. Energy demand regulation

She emphasized HARD:

Know:

Location: cristae

Uses:

NADH

FADH₂

🔥 Core mechanism:

Hydrogen pumps

Create gradient

ATP synthase makes ATP

🔥 Oxygen:

👉 final electron acceptor

👉 forms water

🚨 If ETC stops:

No NAD⁺ regeneration

Glycolysis stops

ATP collapses

👉 She explicitly walked through this

🔥 15. ATP Synthase

She highlighted:

👉 builds ATP

👉 uses proton gradient

🔥 16. Fat + protein entry into pathway

She mentioned near the end

Know:

Fats → acetyl-CoA

Proteins → enter at different points

Nitrogen → urea

🚨 VERY HIGH-YIELD SUMMARY (what to memorize cold)

If you ONLY know this, you’re in a strong position:

Acetyl-CoA, oxaloacetate, citrate

ATP inhibits glycolysis (PFK)

NAD⁺ / NADH role

Pyruvate → lactate (no O₂)

ETC = H⁺ gradient + ATP synthase

Oxygen = final electron acceptor

Substrate vs oxidative phosphorylation

Fats/proteins enter pathway

Villi

Microvilli

👉 Translation (how she tests):

“Where does most absorption occur?”

“Why is the small intestine so efficient?”

🔥 2. FAT DIGESTION (VERY HIGH-YIELD — SHE REPEATED THIS)

Steps (know in order):

Bile (from liver)

Emulsifies fat

NOT an enzyme

Pancreatic lipase

Digests fat

Absorption

Fats → lacteals (lymph)

Then → bloodstream

👉 She will ask this indirectly:

“Why does lymph flow increase after a fatty meal?”

Because fats enter lacteals
