, Prep Stage equation - ANS 2 Pyruvate ----> Acetyl COA, CO2, 2 ATP, 2 NADH
Oxidization - ANS Loses electrons
Citric Acid Cycle input - ANS 2 Acetyl Groups, 6 NAD+, 2 FAD, 2 ADP+2P
Citric Acid Cycle output - ANS 4 CO2, 6NADH,2 FAD2, 2ATP
Electron Transport Chain input - ANS 10 NADH, 2 FAD
Electron Transport Chain output - ANS 10 NAD+, 2 FAD, 32-34 ATP
Net Gain for Cellular Respiration - ANS 36-38 ATP
Where does the Electron Transport Chain take place? - ANS Cristae of the mitochondria
Steps of the Electron Transport Chain - ANS 1)H+ can't enter the chain, follow chain e-
2)H+ reaches ATP synthase and gets pumped through the electron transport chain
3) Electrons + hydrogen are picked up by O2 ------> H2O produce CO2
Chemiosmosis - ANS Movement of hydrogen ions across the cristae during ATP production
ATP synthase - ANS Enzyme that creates ATP
Homeostasis - ANS Constant internal environment
