| Where does the process of glycolysis take place? | Cytosol |
| Where does the Kreb's Cycle take place? | Inside the matrix of the mitochondria. |
| What happens to hydrogen ions (protons) during the electron transport chain? | Hydrogen ions are being pumped (some are carried) from the matrix of the mitochondria to the intermembrane space during the electron transport chain. |
| Which two molecules carry high energy electrons and deposit them into the electrons transport chain? |  |
| What is the main purpose of the electron transport chain? | The main purpose of the electron transport chain is to build up a surplus of hydrogen ions (protons) in the intermembrane space so that there will be a concentration gradient compared to the matrix of the mitochondria. |
| What is the high concentration of hydrogen ions in the intermembrane space of the mitochondria eventually used for? | The high concentration of hydrogen ions in the intermembrane space is used to power ATP synthase as these hydrogen ions are allowed to flow back through a channel in ATP synthase. |
| Why does ATP synthase require an energy source and what is that energy source? | ATP synthase requires an energy source because it is putting a phosphate group onto ADP to form ATP. This reaction is endothermic, so it requires energy. The energy comes from the force of the hydrogen ions that flow through a channel in ATP synthase. |
| How many ATP can be synthesized from one original molecule of glucose during the process of chemiosmosis? | 34 |
| How many ATP can be synthesized from one original molecule of glucose during the electron transport chain? | No ATP are synthesized during this stage. Potential energy needed to synthesize ATP is being built up during this phase. |
| How is potential energy being built up during the electron transport phase of cellular respiration? | During ETS, a concentration gradient of hydrogen ions (protons) is being built up on the intermembrane space side of the inner membrane in the mitochondria. The force of these ions flowing back to the matrix during chemiosmosis is the conversion of that potential energy to kinetic energy which is used to put ATP together (potential chemical energy) |
| What are the two main reactants of cellular respiration? | .,  |
| What are the two main products of cellular respiration? | .,  |
| During which stages of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide molecules released? | Carbon dioxide molecules are released during the transition phase and Kreb's cycle. Basically, carbon dioxide is released whenever one of the intermediary molecules of cellular respiration gets smaller by one carbon. This happens during the transition phase when the 3-carbon molecule at the end of glycolysis is broken down into a 2-carbon molecule. This two-carbon molecule is added to a 4-carbon molecule during the Kreb's Cycle and is then stripped down to a 5-carbon and then a 4-carbon molecule during the Kreb's cycle. |
| During which stage is oxygen, from the air we breath, used? What is it used for? | Oxygen is only needed at the very end of the electron transport chain. It accepts the "spent" electrons so that more electrons can travel through the chain. |
| What is the total possible net gain of ATP from one molecule of glucose that goes through aerobic cellular respiration? | 38 ATP |
| How many ATP have to be used to get glycolysis started? | 2 ATP need to be broken down to get glycolyis started. Later in glycolysis, 4 ATP are generated to produce a net gain of 2 ATP. |
| How many ATP can be generated from one molecule of glucose under anaerobic conditions? | 2 ATP per molecule of glucose can be generated under anaerobic conditions. |
| If an electron carrier molecule like NAD+ accepts two high energy electrons (and a hydrogen) from another molecule (as happens many times during respiration), it is said that the NAD+ is being __________ to NADH while the other molecule is being _______. | reduced (because the NAD+ is accepting electrons), oxidized (because the other molecule is losing electrons). Remember LEO says GER? |
| Glucose is broken down into 2 molecules of ____________ by the end of glycolysis. | pyruvic acid (a.k.a. pyruvate) |
| _____ molecules of pyruvic acid (pyruvate) can be generated from 1 molecule of ______ during glycolysis. | 2 (molecules of pyruvate), (from 1 molecule of) glucose |
| Besides pyruvic acid, which 2 high energy molecules are generated during glycolysis? | 2 ATP and 2 NADH are generated during the process of glycolysis using the energy that was originally in one molecule of glucose. |
| Where do the NADH's, generated during glycolysis, the transition phase and Kreb's Cycle, dump off their high energy electrons and hydrogen ions? | The NADH's dump off their high energy electrons to the system I proton pump of the electron transport chain. However, if the electron transport chain is backed up due to lack of oxygen, pyruvic acid from glycolysis will accept the electrons and hydrogen to form lactic acid. This way, NAD+ can be regenerated and used to keep glycolysis running. |
| What are the reactants and what are the products of the transition stage? | You start off with 2 molecules of pyruvate (pyruvic acid) and end up with 2 molecules of acetyl-CoA plus 2 molecules of carbon dioxide. In the process, two molecules of NADH are also produced from NAD+.. |

| In which direction would protons flow by facilitated diffusion (C to E or E to C) and why?, | C to E because the proton concentration is less in the area labeled E (the matrix) so protons would naturally flow from the area of high concentration to the area of low concentration by diffusion, |
| In which direction would protons have to be pumped using active transport (C to E or E to C) and why?, | E to C because there is already a higher concentration of protons in the intermembrane space (C).The protons don't want to go where it is more crowded so you have to use energy to get them there., |
