FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is glycolysis?

Back

Glycolysis is the metabolic process that converts glucose into two molecules of pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP and NADH in the process.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Where does glycolysis occur in the cell?

Back

Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol, which is the fluid outside of the mitochondria.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the Link Reaction?

Back

The Link Reaction is the process that converts pyruvate into Acetyl Co-A, which is essential for entering the Krebs Cycle.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the role of oxygen in cellular respiration?

Back

Oxygen acts as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, combining with hydrogen to form water.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is chemiosmosis?

Back

Chemiosmosis is the process by which ATP is produced in the mitochondria as protons flow back into the mitochondrial matrix through ATP synthase.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What are the main stages of cellular respiration?

Back

The main stages of cellular respiration are glycolysis, the Link Reaction, the Krebs Cycle, and the electron transport chain.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the Krebs Cycle?

Back

The Krebs Cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, is a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to generate energy through the oxidation of Acetyl Co-A.
