BIOLOGY 1301 CH.4 REVIEW
Aerobic Cellular Respiration? - ANS--Breakdown of food to make ATP
-Takes place in the mitochondria
-Converts 1 glucose molecule to approximately 38 ATP
Three stages of cellular respiration? - ANS-Glycolysis, Citric Acid Cycle, Electron
Transport Chain
Chemical formula for cellular respiration? - ANS-C6H12O6+O2--->CO2+H2O+ATP
What is ATP and why is it important? - ANS--Adenosine Triphosphate
-Currency of Energy
-it transports the energy necessary for all cellular metabolic activities.
How does ATP work? - ANS--It is constantly recycling your cells.
-Takes in energy from food and converts it into usable energy for your cells.
-It also is converted to ADP, by adding another phosphate.
What are 3 types of work driven by using ATP? - ANS-Chemical work, Mechanical work,
and Transport work.
Chemical Work example - ANS-Building large molecules (proteins)
Mechanical Work example - ANS-Contraction of a muscle
Transport Work example - ANS-pumping of solutes(ions) across a cellular membrane
from low to high gradients.
What is Phosphorylation? - ANS--The transfer of a phosphate
-ATP is formed as a result of the transfer of electrons from NADH and FADH2 to O2 by
a series of electron carriers.
What is anaerobic respiration? - ANS-NO OXYGEN NEEDED!
When glucose is broken down to release energy in the absence of oxygen, forming
lactic acid in muscle tissue, or alcohol plus carbon dioxide in yeasts and plants.
What is fermentation and what are the two types? - ANS-A process in which and agent
causes an organic substance to break down into simpler substances.
