Accepted Answer

$$2$$

Question 3

Which stage of cellular respiration occurs in the cytosol of eukaryotic cells?

Accepted Answer

Glycolysis

Question 4

What is the primary role of oxygen in cellular respiration?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 5

Which molecule is produced during pyruvate oxidation and enters the citric acid cycle?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

$$30$$-$$32$$

Question 10

Which of the following is a product of lactic acid fermentation?

Accepted Answer

Lactate

Question 11

A researcher finds that mitochondria are most active at pH 5. What does this suggest about the concentration of H$$^+$$ ions in the intermembrane space?

Accepted Answer

The intermembrane space has a high concentration of H$$^+$$ ions.

Question 12

Which enzyme is directly responsible for synthesizing ATP during chemiosmosis?

Accepted Answer

ATP synthase

Question 13

During strenuous exercise, muscle cells may switch to lactic acid fermentation. What is a possible consequence of this switch?

Accepted Answer

Lowered blood pH due to lactate accumulation

Question 14

Which of the following is NOT a final electron acceptor in anaerobic respiration?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

To transfer electrons to NAD$$^+$$ and FAD, forming NADH and FADH$$_2$$

Question 16

Which of the following best explains why cristae are important in mitochondria?

Accepted Answer

They increase the surface area for electron transport chain reactions.

Question 17

Which process is responsible for recycling NAD$$^+$$ during fermentation?

Accepted Answer

Reduction of pyruvate to lactate or ethanol

Question 18

A fish caught and held out of water cannot take in oxygen. Which stage of cellular respiration is directly affected?

Accepted Answer

Electron transport chain
