Cellular Respiration Basics

What is the primary purpose or goal of Cellular Respiration?

• make glucose (chemical "food" energy)

• make ATP (by "recharging" ADP)

• make oxygen for animals and other heterotrophs

• make carbon dioxide

Where does Glycolysis take place?

• Cytoplasm of the Cell

• Mitochondrial Matrix (Cytoplasm-like middle of the Mitochondria)

• Inner Membrane of the Mitochondria (folded to give more space/surface area for this stage)

Which of these is the step where Glucose is broken apart , creating pyruvic acid (pyruvate); 2 ATP are used, but 4 are created (yielding a net 2 ATP); NADH is formed and carries electrons?

• Glycolysis

• Krebs Cycle

• Electron Transport Chain

Which of these is the second stage of Cellular Respiration?

• Glycolysis

• Krebs Cycle

• Electron Transport Chain

Where does the Krebs Cycle take place?

• Cytoplasm of the Cell

• Mitochondrial Matrix (Cytoplasm-like middle of the Mitochondria)

• Inner Membrane of the Mitochondria (folded to give more space/surface area for this stage)

Which of these is the step where, through a series of enzymatic reactions: Pyruvate is broken down; 2 ATP are formed; Carbon dioxide is formed and released as waste; FADH2 and NADH are formed and carry electrons?

• Glycolysis

• Krebs Cycle

• Electron Transport Chain
