What are the reactants for cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose and oxygen.

Front

What is the equation for Aerobic respiration?

Back

Glucose + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water.

Front

What happens during the Electron Transport Chain?

Back

High energy electrons travel down the ETC, pumping H+ into the intermembrane space.

Front

Where does the electron transport chain happen?

Back

Inner membrane of mitochondria matrix.

Front

What enzyme in the ETC is responsible for generating ATP molecules?

Back

ATP synthase.

Front

What is the main purpose of aerobic respiration?

Back

To convert glucose into ATP using oxygen.

Front

What are the products of aerobic respiration?

Back

Carbon dioxide, water, and 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 is the significance of the inner mitochondrial membrane?

Back

It houses the electron transport chain and ATP synthase.

Front

What is the function of ATP synthase?

Back

To synthesize ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate using the energy from H+ ions.
