Front

Which stage of cellular respiration produces the most ATP?

Back

Front

What is the energy molecule produced during cellular respiration?

Back

ATP

Front

What is the energy organelle in cells?

Back

Mitochondria

Front

What is glycolysis?

Back

The first stage of cellular respiration that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP.

Front

What is the Kreb's Cycle?

Back

A series of chemical reactions in cellular respiration that produces ATP, NADH, and FADH₂ from acetyl CoA.

Front

What role does oxygen play in cellular respiration?

Back

Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, allowing for the production of ATP.

Front

What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?

Back

To convert biochemical energy from nutrients into ATP, and release waste products.

Front

What are the two types of cellular respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration (with oxygen) and anaerobic respiration (without oxygen).
