Correct Answers.
Cellular respiration - Answer the process of making ATP through the breakdown of glucose,
which takes place in the Mitochondria
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
Autotrophs - Answer An organism that makes its own food, thereby sustaining itself without
eating other organism or their molecules
Heterotrophs - Answer An organisms that obtains organic food molecules by eating other
organisms or substances derived from them
Anaerobic - Answer No oxygen (outside of cell)
Aerobic - Answer Needs oxygen (inside of cell)
Glycolysis - Answer the "splitting of the cell," Anaerobic, cytoplasm,
Reactants: Glucose Products: 2 Pyruvates + 2 NADH+ 2 ATP
Formation of Acetyl CoA - Answer Carboxyl group is leaved off of a pyruvates (3 Carbons) and
released as O2; its aerobic, Mitochondrial Matrix,
Reactants: 2CoA Products: 2 acectyl CoA + 2NADH + 2CO2
Citric Acid Cycle ( kreb's cycle) - Answer Uses 1 ATP per cycle, Aerobic, Mitochondrial Matrix
Reactants: 2CoA Products: 3 NADH + 1 FADH + 2CO2
Electron Transport Chain - Answer Oxidative phosphorylation= the production of ATP using
energy from the breakdown of organic molecules; Aerobic, inner mitochondrial matrix
Regulation of cellular respiration - Answer The cell regulates the concentration of ATP very
tightly, If excess ATP are formed (more than the cell is using) cellular respiration will be Inhibited
