(^1) Mitochondria 2 Golgi Apparatus
(^3) Chloroplast 4 Lysosome
Don't know?
Aerobic respiration Converting glucose into ATP in the presence of oxygen. Glycolysis, Kreb's cycle, ETC, total of 36-38 ATP, Location: mitochondria
Anaerobic Respiration Converting glucose into ATP without the presence of oxygen. Glycolysis only, Net ATP=2, Location: cytoplasm
Alcoholic Fermentation Type of anaerobic respiration used by organisms such as yeast to recycle products of glycolysis. Alcohol and Carbon Dioxide made. Used in making beer, bread and wine
Lactic Acid Respiration Type of anaerobic respiration used by organisms such as bacteria to recycle products of glycolysis. Lactic acid made, Used in making cheese and yogurt.
Glycolysis First stage of anaerobic AND anaerobic cellular respiration. Occurs in cytoplasm, makes 2 ATP.
ATP Energy carrying molecule.
Pyruvate 3 carbon sugar produced when glucose is split during glycolysis, molecules are then used in the Kreb's cycle.
Water Released during the final stage of cellular respiration
NADH and FADH2 high energy electron carrier(s) after reduction in cellular respiration (after they pick up electrons from Kreb's cycle)
Acetyl CoA the entry compound for the citric acid cycle in cellular respiration, formed from a fragment of pyruvate attached to a coenzyme.
