Termini in questo insieme (10)

  • Purpose of aerobic respiration
    To produce ATP from glucose.
  • Location of glycolysis
    Occurs in the cytosol.
  • Where does pyruvate oxidation occur?
    In the mitochondrial matrix.
  • Location of the citric acid cycle
    Takes place in the mitochondrial matrix.
  • Where does oxidative phosphorylation occur?
    On the inner mitochondrial membrane.
  • Which step produces the most ATP in aerobic respiration?
    Oxidative phosphorylation produces the most ATP.
  • Role of the electron transport chain (ETC)
    Uses electrons from NADH and FADH₂ to create a proton (H⁺) gradient.
  • Function of ATP synthase
    Uses the flow of H⁺ ions down their gradient to synthesize ATP.
  • Final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration
    Oxygen (O₂) is the final electron acceptor.
  • What does oxygen form after accepting electrons?
    Oxygen helps form water (H₂O).
