Front

What is the pathway of the electron through cellular respiration?

Back

Front

What is the first step of cellular respiration?

Back

Glycolysis

Front

Where does the Krebs Cycle take place?

Back

Matrix

Front

Does fermentation synthesize ATP?

Back

False

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

A metabolic process that converts glucose into ATP, using oxygen.

Front

What are the three main stages of cellular respiration?

Back

Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, and Oxidative Phosphorylation.

Front

What is the main purpose of glycolysis?

Back

To break down glucose into pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP and NADH.

Front

What is produced during the Krebs Cycle?

Back

NADH, FADH2, ATP, and CO2.

Front

What role does oxygen play in cellular respiration?

Back

Oxygen acts as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain.
