Cellular Respiration L4

Cards (21)

  • the process of cellular respiration generates more energy. This energy used by the cell is called
    ATP
  • what is the waste product of cellular respiration?
    Carbon dioxide
  • what do you call the process involved in splitting of sugar?
    glycolysis
  • what process occurs after glycolysis when oxygen is NOT present?
    fermentation
  • aside from oxygen, what else is needed for cellular respiration?
    glucose
  • what are the two high-energy electron carriers participate in the cellular respiration?
    NADH and FADH2.
  • where does the glycolysis occur?
    cytoplasm
  • what is the powerhouse of the cell?
    mitochondria
  • fermentation generate more ATP than aerobic respiration.
    false
  • glycolysis is the first step in cellular respiration where it yields 2 net ATPs, 2 NADH, and 2 glucose molecules.
    false
  • the calvin cycle is also known by the name citric acid cycle.
    false
  • anaerobic process does not require the presence of oxygen.
    true
  • plants do not perform cellular respiration, they only perform photosynthesis.
    false
  • brain and muscle cells have more mitochondria because they need more constant ATP.
    true
  • generates the most number of ATP
    electron transport chain
  • occurs outside the mitochondrion
    glycolysis
  • generates CO2 as waste product
    krebs cycle
  • reduces NAD+ and FAD, producing NADH and FADH2
    krebs cycle
  • aerobic respiration: requires oxygen
  • Anaerobic Respiration: does not require oxygen
  • Split the Glucose up into two smaller molecules called
    Pyruvic Acids
