Front

What causes muscle soreness after intense activity?

Back

The accumulation of lactic acid.

Front

Under what conditions does fermentation enable glycolysis to continue?

Back

Anaerobic conditions.

Front

Where does glycolysis take place?

Back

In the cytoplasm.

Front

What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?

Back

To convert glucose into ATP, the energy currency of the cell.

Front

What is ATP and why is it important?

Back

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the primary energy carrier in cells.

Front

What is the role of oxygen in cellular respiration?

Back

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

Front

What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, while anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen.

Front

What is produced during glycolysis?

Back

2 ATP, 2 NADH, and 2 pyruvate molecules.
