During glycolysis, the net production of ATP is 4 ATP molecules.

False

In Eukaryotes, the transition step between glycolysis and the Krebs cycle occurs in the cytoplasm.

False

The Krebs cycle is also known as the TCA cycle and citric acid cycle.

True

NADH production in the Krebs cycle is 3 times higher than FADH2 production.

True

The electron transport chain takes place in the cytoplasm in both Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes.

False

Chemiosmosis is the process where ATP is synthesized using the energy of a proton gradient across a membrane.

True

The Krebs Cycle occurs in the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell.

False

Anaerobic respiration produces more ATP than aerobic respiration.

False

Chemiosmosis is the process by which ATP is generated in mitochondria.

True

Electron transport chain (ETC) serves to convert ATP energy into electron energy.

False

During aerobic respiration, FADH2 produces more ATP than NADH.

False

The final electron acceptor in anaerobic respiration is always an organic molecule.

False

Aerobic Respiration involves the transfer of electrons to oxygen, which acts as the terminal electron acceptor.

True

Anaerobic Respiration always involves the use of oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor.

False

Fermentation requires the Krebs cycle and an Electron Transport Chain (ETC) to produce ATP.

False

Glycolysis is a process that occurs during both Aerobic Respiration and Fermentation.

True

Chemotrophs metabolize organic or inorganic chemicals to gain energy.

True

The Krebs Cycle is directly involved in the process of Fermentation.

False

Learn about oxidation reduction reactions in biochemistry, focusing on the breakdown of compounds like H2S and NH3. Understand how H+ and e- are removed and transferred to electron carriers like NAD+ and FAD, leading to the production of NADH + H+. Explore key concepts such as oil rig, Leo, Ger, and electron carriers.
