AP Biology - Cellular Respiration

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

The catabolism of glucose to transfer energy to ATP.

Front

What does it indicate when ADP is phosphorylated?

Back

ADP is forming into ATP.

Front

Where does glycolysis occur in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

Back

Cytoplasm.

Front

After strenuous exercise, what decreases in muscle cells?

Back

Oxygen.

Front

After strenuous exercise, what increases in muscle cells?

Back

Lactic acid.

Front

Which process does not occur in aerobic conditions?

Back

Fermentation.

Front

What is the main purpose of glycolysis?

Back

To break down glucose into pyruvate, producing ATP and NADH.

Front

What are the end products of glycolysis?

Back

2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, and 2 NADH.

Front

What is the role of NADH in cellular respiration?

Back

NADH carries electrons to the electron transport chain.

Front

What is oxidative phosphorylation?

Back

The process of ATP production using the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.
