Front

What is the primary input for glycolysis?

Back

Glucose

Front

Which step of cellular respiration requires oxygen?

Back

Oxidative Phosphorylation

Front

What is the main function of glycolysis?

Back

To split a glucose molecule in half and synthesize NADH.

Front

What is produced during glycolysis?

Back

2 Pyruvate, 2 NADH, and a net gain of 2 ATP.

Front

What is the role of NADH in cellular respiration?

Back

NADH carries electrons to the electron transport chain.

Front

Where does the Krebs Cycle take place?

Back

Mitochondrial matrix.

Front

What is the main purpose of the Krebs Cycle?

Back

To produce electron carriers (NADH and FADH2) and ATP.
