007 Complete Solution 2023 Verified 100%
fermentation correct answers a partial degradation of sugars or organic fuel that occurs without the use
of oxygen
aerobic respiration correct answers a catabolic pathway in which oxygen is consumed along with the
organic fuel as a reactant
cellular respiration correct answers anaerobic processes and aerobic processes
redox reactions correct answers A chemical reaction involving the transfer of one or more electrons
from one reactant to another; also called oxidation-reduction reaction.
oxidation correct answers Loss of electrons
reduction correct answers Any process in which electrons are added to an atom or ion (as by removing
oxygen or adding hydrogen)
reducing agent correct answers the electron donor in a redox reaction
oxidizing agent correct answers the electron acceptor in a redox reaction
NAD+ correct answers (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) electron carrier involved in glycolysis
electron transport chain correct answers A sequence of electron carrier molecules (membrane proteins)
that shuttle electrons during the redox reactions that release energy used to make ATP.
glycolysis correct answers Catabolism of glucose or other monosaccharides to pyruvate and 2 molecules
of ATP in the absence of oxygen or 34 molecules of ATP in the presence of oxygen.
citric acid cycle correct answers A cycle series of reactions, occurring in the matrix of mitochondria, in
which the acetyl groups from the pyruvic acids produced by glycolysis are broken down to CO2,
accompanied by the formation of ATP and electron carriers; also called the Krebs Cycle.
oxidative phosphorylation correct answers The production of ATP using energy derived from the redox
reactions of an electron transport chain.
substrate-level phosphorylation correct answers The enzyme-catalyzed formation of ATP by direct
transfer of a phosphate group to ADP from an intermediate substrate in catabolism.
acetyl CoA correct answers Acetyl coenzyme A; the entry compound for the citric acid cycle in cellular
respiration, formed from a fragment of pyruvate attached to a coenzyme.
prosthetic groups correct answers nonprotein components essential for the catalytic functions of certain
enzymes
