Stages of Cellular Respiration

Mitochondria + Cellular Respiration

How does Cellular Respiration occur?

Multiple Choice

What energy molecule does the mitochondria make during cellular respiration?

• Oxygen

• Phosphate

• Glucose

• ATP

Let's explore HOW the Mitochondria makes ATP

Multiple Choice

What does the term Glycolysis mean?

• making glucose

• splitting glucose

• eating glucose

Multiple Choice

Where does Glycolysis take place?

• in the cytoplasm

• in the mitochondria

Multiple Choice

Does Glycolysis require oxygen?

• Yes

• No

Multiple Choice

What is the MAIN thing occurring during Glycolysis?

• Glucose gets converted into Electron Carriers

• Glucose gets converted into Pyruvate

• Glucose gets synthesized

Multiple Choice

How many molecules of ATP are gained from Glycolysis?

• 1

• 2

• 4

• 8

Multiple Choice

Where do the Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport Chain occur?

• in the cytoplasm

• in the mitochondria

Multiple Choice

Where does the Krebs Cycle take place?

• in the cytoplasm

• in the mitochondria

Multiple Choice

What is the MAIN thing occurring during the Krebs Cycle?

• Pyruvate oxidized → CO2 produced

• Pyruvate is converted into 36 ATP

• Pyruvate is transformed into electron carriers only

Multiple Choice

How many molecules of ATP are gained from the Krebs Cycle?

• 8

• 2

• 12

Multiple Choice

Where does the Electron Transport Chain place?

• in the cytoplasm

• in the mitochondria

Multiple Choice

Does the Electron Transport Chain require oxygen?

• Yes

• No

Multiple Choice

What is the MAIN thing occurring during the Electron Transport Chain?

• Electron carriers help make Oxygen

• ATP Synthase makes A LOT of ATP

• ATP Synthase breaks down A LOT of ATP

Multiple Choice

How many molecules of ATP are gained from the Electron Transport Chain

• ~ 2

• ~ 8

• ~ 34

Multiple Choice

What is the proper order for the stages of cellular respiration?

• Krebs Cycle, Glycolysis, Electron Transport Chain

• Electron Transport Chain, Krebs Cycle, Glycolysis

• Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, Electron Transport Chain

Multiple Choice

Which stage of Cellular Respiration is responsible for producing MOST of the ATP molecules?

• Glycolysis

• Krebs Cycle

• Electron Transport Chain
