Part C: Short Answer
How are the chemical equations for
cellular respiration and photosynthesis
related?
It is the same equation, just reversed for
photosynthesis.
C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O  6CO2 + 12H2O + energy
How can the process of cellular
respiration be kept track of?
In cellular respiration there are three
components to track:
(1) rearrangement of Carbon skeleton
(2)production of ATP and
(3) reduction/oxidation reactions
(REDOX)
In the overall reaction for cellular
respiration, what is oxidized and
what is reduced?
Ultimately, glucose is oxidized and
oxygen is reduced to form water
What is the “final electron acceptor” in
cellular respiration?
What molecules transfer or carry the
electrons?
(You should be able to identify both of
these molecules.)
The final electron acceptor in cellular
respiration is oxygen.
Electron carriers are co-enzymes or
cytochromes.
Glycolysis
What is another general name for
glucose in these reactions?
Another general name for glucose is
" substrate".
Describe the process in which energy
is supplied to “kick start” glycolysis.
The process where energy is
supplied to kick start glycolysis is
substrate-level phosphorylation.
What is “substrate level
phosphorylation”?
Why is it important?
ATP is synthesized through the
action of an enzyme directly on a
respiratory substrate.
The Citric Acid Cycle
(aka The Krebs Cycle):
What must happen to pyruvate before
it can enter the CAC?
Pyruvate must first cross the
membranes of the mitochondrion,
where it is converted to acetyl
co-enzyme A (acetyl co-A) by the
removal of CO2 and the reduction of
NAD+ to NADH + H+.
Why is this part of cellular
respiration called the Citric Acid
Cycle?
This part of cellular respiration is
called the Citric Acid Cycle because
citric acid is a major intermediate
created when acetyl co-A and
oxaloacetate join together at the
beginning of the cycle.
How many rotations of the CAC are
required for one glucose molecule?
Two rotations of the CAC are
required for one glucose molecule.
At this point in the process of cellular
respiration, where is most of energy
from glucose stored?
At this point, most of the energy from
glucose is stored as NADH + H+
(reduced NAD+).
The Electron Transport Chain:
How many ATP are produced from
one NADH + H+? How many ATP are
produced from one FADH2?
What is this process called?
Three molecules of ATP are produced
from one NADH + H+. Two ATP are
generated from one FADH2.
This process is called oxidative
phosphorylation.
How are the electrons moved in the
ETC?
Electrons are moved along by a
series of electron carriers in order
of decreasing electrical potential.
At three positions in the chain the
energy drop is sufficient to drive
the synthesis of ATP.
(Recall: ATP synthesis is an
endergonic reaction.)
Describe the electron carriers which
make up the ETC?
The electron carriers are made up
of four multiprotein complexes
which extend across the
mitochondrial inner membrane.
How do the large number of folds of
the inner mitochondrion membrane
assist in this process?
How is this folding related to
specific energy requirements of the
cell?
The large number of folds in the inner
mitochondrial membrane provide a large
surface area to accommodate a large
number of electron transport complexes.
Mitochondria in insect flight muscles and
other cells with high energy requirements
typically have an extensively folded inner
membrane. Cells with lower energy
requirements have fewer folds.
Describe chemiosmosis completely?
Chemisomosis is the theory of ATP
synthesis, proposed by Mitchell,
which states that a proton gradient is
created across a membrane, and as
the protons return through a
membrane via a channel, ATP is
produced.
Respiratory Control:
What 2 processes are “coupled” in
order to control cellular
respiration?
ATP synthesis and electron transport
are "coupled" in order to control
cellular respiration.
How do some poisons interfere with
respiratory control?
What is the result?
Dinitrophenol (DNP) transports
protons across membrane
(sending them back into the
matrix), eliminating the proton
motive force, bypassing the ATP
synthase channel.
Distinguish between alcoholic
fermentation and lactic acid
fermentation.
Alcoholic fermentation involves the
breakdown of pyruvate into acetaldehyde
by the removal of CO2 and finally to
ethanol by the oxidation of NADH + H +.
This occurs in the absence of oxygen in
yeast cells. Lactic acid fermentation
involves the breakdown of pyruvate, in the
absence of oxygen, to lactic acid by the
oxidation of NADH + H+. This occurs in
animal muscle cells and in certain
microogranisms.
