Study Notes
Cellular Respiration Study Guide - Part I
- Energy flows through ecosystems, using essential chemical elements for life processes.
- Metabolism has two main types: anabolic (biosynthetic) and catabolic (breakdown).
- Anabolic pathways build molecules while catabolic pathways break them down.
- Cellular respiration is a major catabolic pathway.
- The main molecule used in cellular respiration is glucose.
- The equation for cellular respiration is not provided.
- Other catabolic pathways exist besides cellular respiration.
- Glucose is oxidized during cellular respiration.
Cellular Respiration - Part II
- Oxidation involves loss of electrons; reduction involves gain of electrons.
- Redox reactions are crucial in cellular respiration.
- During respiration, a specific compound is oxidized, and another is reduced. The compounds involved are not named.
- Cellular respiration involves distinct stages; the specific steps and results are not detailed.
- A molecule named NAD+ carries electrons during glucose oxidation.
- The equation for NAD+ reduction is not supplied.
Glycolysis
- Glycolysis has two main phases, though the names or reasons for these names are not mentioned.
- Glycolysis produces specific net products, though the exact number of each product is not given.
- Glycolysis occurs in a specific location inside cells.
