glycolysis

Cards (23)

  • how does glucose enter the cell cytoplasm
    facilitated diffusion through an intrinsic carrier protein
  • is oxygen required for glycolysis
    no
  • what is the first stage of both aerobic and anaerobic respiration
    glycolysis
  • What is the starting molecule for glycolysis? ( include the carbon form)

    glucose (6c)
  • in glycolysis what happens to glucose(6C) to form hexose-phospahte(6C)

    glucose (6C) is phosphorylated
  • how is glucose (6C) phosphorylated into hexose-phosphate(6C)

    2 ATP molecules are used for the inorganic phosphate and then 2ADP are left over
  • what is formed at he second stage of glycolysis , when 2 atp is used with glucose

    Hexose-phosphate(6C)
  • why is ATP needed for glucose to be phosphorylated
    for the inorganic phosphate molecules
  • what happens in glycolysis after hexose-phosphate(6C) has been formed

    it splits into 2 trios phosphate(3C) molecules
  • what happens to the each of the two triose phosphates to convert them into pyruvate(3C)

    they are oxidised
  • when the two triose phosphates are converted into pyruvate they are oxidised what does this mean

    they will lose hydrogen atoms
  • whilst Triose phosphate is being oxidised it is losing electrons ,what will happen to these electrons

    they will be used to reduce the coenzyme NAD+ into reduced NAD
  • whilst triose phosphate(3C) is being oxidised into pyruvate they are losing inorganic phosphates,what happens to these inorganic phosphates

    they are used in substrate level phosphorylation to create 2 ATP molecules per each triose phosphate
  • what are the triose phosphates converted into

    pyruvate(3C)
  • What is the end product of glycolysis?

    2 pyruvate
  • in glycolysis per glucose molecule how much reduced NAD is produced

    2
  • in glycolysis per glucose molecule how much ATP is gross produced

    4
  • in glycolysis per glucose molecule how much ATP is used

    2
  • in glycolysis per glucose molecule how much net total of ATP is produced

    2
  • what is meant by substrate level phosphorylation
    the production of atp molecules that are formed directly from phosphate compounds
  • give an example of a place where substrate level phosphorylation occurs in glycolysis
    when triose phosphate is being oxidised into pyruvate ,2ADP molecules gain pi molecules to make ATP
  • what is meant by yield
    this is the total number of molecules produced in a reaction
  • what is meant by net gain
    this is the total gained minus that used
