Photosynthesis Cellular Respiration and Anaerobic Respiration

In the cytosol of a cell, lactic acid is being formed from pyruvate. Which of the following is the most likely conclusion one can make regarding the processes that are occurring?

• Fermentation is taking place as a result of a lack of oxygen.

• The Krebs cycle is taking place and the products will enter the mitochondria

• Glucose is being produced as a result of aerobic conditions.

• Carbon dioxide is also being produced as pyruvate moves through the electron transport chain.

Which statement accurately describes the way that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) transfers energy within a cell?

• ATP molecules break up sugars such as glucose into energy-rich compounds like lactose.

• ATP molecules split carbon dioxide molecules, and the carbon is used as fuel by the cell.

• An ATP molecule reacts with water and loses a phosphate group, breaking a bond and releasing energy.

• ATP molecules ionize oxygen molecules, which give up electrons that can then be used for energy.
