C6H12O6 + 6 O2 ------->
35-38 ATP
6 H2O
6 CO2
O2
Redox Reactions:
break c-c bonds
release energy
strips electrons from C-H bonds
is anabolic
Oxidation:
adds O
exergonic
loses electrons
removes H
is endergonic
Reduction:
removes O, adds H
gains electrons
endergonic
releases energy
which are electron carriers:
NAD+ (--> NADH)
FAD+ (---> FADH)
ATP
NADPH
What does glycolysis do?
breaks down 6C glucose into 2 3C pyruvates
builds glucose
creates acetyl coA
turns glucose into oxygen
If O2 is present, where will the pyruvate enter?
mitochondria
nucleus
mitochondria matrix
cristae
Where in the mitochondria are enzymes?
matrix
cytosol
cristae
membrane
where does pyruvate oxidation occur?
mitochondrial matrix
nucleus
membrane
cristae
what happens during pyruvate oxidation?
pyruvate releases 2 CO2
reduces 2 NAD to NADH
produces 2 Acetyl coA
produces 2 NADPH
Inputs of Pyruvate Oxidation:
Acetyl group
ATP
NAD+
glucose
What enzyme catalyzes Pyruvate Oxidation?
Pyruvate dehydrogenase
pyruvate lactase
acetyl hydrogenase
glucose dehydrogenase
Where does the Kreb's cycle take place?
mitochondrial matrix
cytosol
membrane
nucleus
What is being catalyzed during the Kreb's cycle?
6C citrate molecule
acetyl coA
glucose
CO2
What electron carriers are produced during the Kreb's cycle?
NADH
ATP
FADH2
NADPH
What are the products of the Kreb's cycle?
2 ATP
8 NADH
2 FADH2
4 CO2 Molecule
water
Where does the ETC take place
mitochondrial membrane
cristae
nucleus
Mitochondrial matrix
How much ATP does the ETC yield?
24
36
38
50
What enzyme turns NADH ---> NAD+?
NADH Dehydrogenase
NADH hydrogenase
Hydrogenase
NAD+ hydrogenase
What happens to the H atoms during the ETC
electrons are stripped from H (--> H+)
H is taken off of NADH and FADH2
H bonds to make NADH
H leaves the body
What does chemiosmosis do?
links ETC to ATP synthase
creates H+ gradient
strips electrons from H
breaks down glucose
When is the H+ gradient set up?
during the ETC
during the Kreb's cycle
during glycolysis
during pyruvate oxidation
