Select the correct sequence of steps as energy is extracted from glucose during cellular
respiration. - Ans -glycolysis → acetyl CoA → citric acid cycle → electron transport
chain
What is the correct general equation for cellular respiration? - Ans -C6H12O6 + 6 O2
→ 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ATP energy
Which of the following processes takes place in the cytosol of a eukaryotic cell? -
Ans -glycolysis
In what organelle would you find acetyl CoA formation, the citric acid cycle, and the
electron transport chain? - Ans -mitochondrion
Which statement describes glycolysis? - Ans -This process splits glucose in half and
produces 2 ATPs for each glucose.
Which statement describes the citric acid cycle? - Ans -This process produces some
ATP and carbon dioxide in the mitochondrion.
Which statement describes the electron transport chain? - Ans -This process uses
energy captured from electrons flowing to oxygen to produce most of the ATPs in cellular
respiration.
