Front

What is the overall equation for cellular respiration?

Back

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

Front

What is glycolysis?

Back

The first step in cellular respiration that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP.

Front

What role does oxygen play in aerobic respiration?

Back

Oxygen acts as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain.

Front

What are the end products of the Krebs Cycle?

Back

Carbon dioxide, ATP, NADH, and FADH2.
