True/False: The electron transport chain occurs in the outer mitochondrial membrane. - Answer-False: inner Aerobic respiration of glucose produces a total net gain of ___ ATP molecules. - Answer-TOTAL NET GAIN = About 38 ATP molecules Glycolysis (2 ATP) Citric Acid Cycle (2 ATP) Oxidative Phosphorylation (34 ATP) How is ANAEROBIC respiration different from aerobic respiration? - Answer-Essentially the same process, except oxygen is not present so other electron acceptors are used (nitra...

gluconeogenesis - Answer-formation of glucose from non carb sources lipolysis - Answer-breakdown of fat glycogen - Answer-stored glucose glycogenesis - Answer-converts glucose to glycogen by the liver glycogenolysis - Answer-break down of glycogen to glucose glycogenolysis is controlled by? - Answer-glucagon cortisol is secreted by? - Answer-the adrenal cortex actions of cortisol - Answer-promotes protein catabolism, inhibits glucose metabolism in peripheral tissue, increase...

glycolysis->Krebs cycle - Answer-is a bridge-transfer of acetyl group from pyruvate to CoA location of Krebs cycle - Answer-mitochondria what does Krebs cycle produce and what does it release as waste? - Answer-produces 2 NADH per glucose releases 2 CO2 as waste sources of acetyl CoA for Krebs cycle - Answer-1. glycolysis of glucose->2 acetyl-CoA per glucose 2. beta oxidation of fatty acids->1 acetyl CoA for every 2 carbons in FA chain krebs cycle (citric acid cycle) produ...
