Questions and Answers
The pyruvate molecules made by glycolysis will now continue to get oxidized and broken down so that we can release all of the energy that was available in our glucose molecule the rest of this breakdown will happen inside the mitochondrion so pyruvate moves into it once inside pyruvate is oxidized transferring electrons and hydrogens to nad plus to form our favorite electron carrier nadh this also breaks down the pyruvate causing the release of ______
CO2
You may recall that ______ is one of the overall products of cell respiration and that we ultimately release six CO2 molecules for every glucose that enters respiration
CO2
The nadh will be used in the electron transport chain which is where most of our atp comes from and the acetyl coa will be fed into the ______
Krebs cycle
The reaction that we just saw is called the ______ reaction it links or connects glycolysis to the krebs cycle allowing respiration to continue
