IMMEDIATE ENERGY SOURCE

Definition
ATP 
Term

 

 

 

AEROBIC RESPIRATION

Definition
Uses oxygen and makes CO2 water and ATP
Term

 

 

 

 

ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION

Definition

Takes place in the absense of oxygen 

Makes lactic acid in animals

Ethanol in plants

Term

Aerobic respiration

 

 

GYCOLYSIS

Definition

6 carbons splits into two molecules of triose phosphate

 

2 ATP used for activation energy

Makes phosphorylated glucose which splits to make triose phosphate

This is converted into pyruvate, 2 ATP produced. One ADP needs Pi the other uses the phosphate from triose phosphate.

TP is oxidised, (loses H which combines with NAD to form reduced NAD) 

Term

 

 

 

YIELD OF ATP IN GLYCOLISIS

Definition

Uses 2 ATP, forms 4 ATP 

 

 

Net production is 2 ATP

Term

 

 

 

WHAT DOES GLYCOLYSIS MAKE?

Definition
2ATP 2Reduced NAD and 2Pyruvate
Term

 

 

 

WHERE IS THE NEXT PART OF RESPIRATION TAKEN PLACE? 

Definition
In the mitochondria
Term

 

 

 

 

MATRIX

Definition

Site of krebs cycle and link reaction 

 

Also starting point of the pyruvate from glycolysis

Term

 

 

 

LINK REACTION 

Definition

Pyruvate is oxidised into acetyl CoA

This uses Coenzyme A. H ions are lost and so reduce NAD to make reduced NAD. 

1 CO2 is given off as waste product

Leads on to Kreb's cycle

Term

 

 

 

 

KREBS CYCLE

Definition

Acetyl CoA converted into 6 carbon molecule

2COproduced and 3 Reduced NAD and 2 reduced FAD 

ATP also produced using ADP and Pi

 

For every molecule of glucose, 2 pyruvate produced, each pyruvate makes 3CO2 so glucose makes 6CO2 

Term

 

 

 

 

NET PRODUCTION OF LINK REACTION AND KREB'S CYCLE

Definition

8 reduced NAD

2 reduced FAD 

2 ATP

6 CO

Term

 

 

 

 

WHERE DOES GLYCOLYSIS TAKE PLACE?

Definition
In the cytoplasm 
Term

 

 

 

GLYCOLYSIS, LINK REACTION AND KREBS CYCLE NET PRODUCTION

Definition

4 ATP (2 used) 

10 reduced NAD

2 reduced FAD

Term

 

 

 

OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION

Definition

Takes place in the cristae

Reuced NAD and FAD are oxidised. Electrons reduce  carrier A. Carrier A is oxidised and electrons reduce B. B is oxidised and electrons reduce C. C is oxidised and electrons combine with oxygen. 

 

 

Term

 

 

 

 

CHEMIOSMOTIC THEORY

Definition

Protons build up in inner membrane space. 

They have a charge so can't diffuse out of the membrane

Protons pass down ion channel.

At head of ion channel there is ATP synthesase which combines ADP and Pi to form ATP. The H ions that pass through reduce the oxygen to make H2O as waste product. 

Term

 

 

 

 

ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION

Definition

Pyruvate converted into lactic acid

Because oxygen debt has occured

Oxygen atoms from reduced NAD taken up to leave NAD

This NAD can now take up the new hydrogen produced from glycolysis.

This creates lactic acid which causes cramp but this respiration gives quick bursts of energy

Lactic acid can be oxidised back to pyruvate when oxygen is avaliable

Term

 

 

 

 

ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION IN PLANTS

Definition

Pyruvate is converted into ethanal and CO2 Is given off. Ethanal takes up H from reduced NAD and is converted into ethanol. NAD can now take up more H from glycolysis. 

 

This process can't be reversed 

Term

 

 

 

 

WHAT SORT OF PHOSPHORYLATION IS IN GLYCOLYSIS AND KREB'S CYCLE? 

Definition
Substrate - level phosphorylation - direct linking of inorganic phosphate and ADP 
Term

 

 

 

THE AMOUNT OF ATP PRODUCED IN ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION

Definition
Very little, only that of formed by glycolysis
