| Cellular Respiration | a process in which cells break down complex molecules, like glucose, into ATP (an energy form cells can use) |
| Glycolysis | step that breaks down glucose into pyruvates |
| ETC | a series of proteins on the inner membrane of the mitochondria which each has a higher attraction for electrons than the previous one. |
| NAD+ | gets recycled back to glycolysis in anaerobic respiration |
| FADH2 | delivers electrons to the ETC |
| glucose | biomolecule that is broken down during glycolysis |
| lactic acid fermentation | a form of anaerobic respiration that causes sore muscles |
| alcoholic fermentation | a form of anaerobic respiration essential to brew beer or bake bread |
| mitochondria | organelle where cellular respiration takes place |
| Krebs Cycle | a series of cyclic chemical reactions that occur after the prep step and produce carbon dioxide |
| ATP synthetase | a transport protein that allows for a release of energy to form ATP |
| aerobic | a process that requires oxygen |
| anaerobic | a process that does not require oxygen |
| it is oxidized | happens to a molecule when it loses electrons |
| it is reduced | happens to a molecule when it gains electrons (hint: negatively charged) |
| lose electrons = oxidized | LEO the lion |
| gain electrons = reduced | says GER |
| in the bonds between the second and third phosphate | where is the energy stored in ATP? |
| it becomes ADP and P to be reused | how does ATP get recycled? |
| NADH and FADH2 | what supplies electrons to the ETC in respiration? |
