Cellular Respiration

• energy is being stored as a result of aerobic respiration

• fermentation is taking place, resulting in the synthesis of ATP

• energy is being released for metabolic activities

• photosynthesis is taking place, resulting in the storage of energy

The main result of aerobic respiration is the

• conversion of radiant energy into chemical energy

• production of lactic acid as an end product

• storage of energy in a polysaccharide

• production of ATP from the breakdown of glucose

Which substance is needed for aerobic cellular respiration to occur?

• oxygen

• carbon dioxide

• nitrogen

• methane

What is the term used for metabolic pathway in which glucose is degraded to carbon dioxide and water?

• cellular respiration

• glycolysis

• fermentation

• citric acid cycle

Where does glycolysis take place?

• mitochondrial matrix

• mitochondrial inner membrane

• mitochondrial outer membrane

• cytosol

Which process in eukaryotic cells will proceed normally whether oxygen is present or absent?

• electron transport

• glycolysis

• the citric acid cycle

• oxidative phosphorylation

In addition to ATP, what are the end products of glycolysis

• CO₂ and H₂O

• CO₂ and pyruvate

• NADH and pyruvate

• CO₂ and NADH

Where are the proteins of the electron transport chain located?

• cytosol

• mitochondrial outer membrane

• mitochondrial matrix

• mitochondrial inner membrane

In which cell type would you see a high level of mitochondria?

• muscle cells

• skin cells

• red blood cells

• stomach cells

At what stage of respiration is carbon dioxide released as a by-product?

• The light-independent stage

• The light dependent stage

• During the Calvin cycle

• During Krebs cycle
