(5a) What happens to the pyruvate under aerobic conditions?
(5b) What happens to the pyruvate under anaerobic conditions?
Answers
_oxidation_ of Glucose into _pyruvate__
Cellular respiration
Glycolysis (series of steps)
ATP currency of life
(1) addition of two phosphates to the glucose at the expense of two molecules of ATP
(2) The glucose -- 6 carbon sugar diphosphate molecule and 2 low energy adenosine diphosphates (ADP)
(3) it splits into two 3-carbon molecules (3 carbon sugar phosphate)
(4a) electron transport chain
(4b) NADH and ATP formed
(5a) further oxidized to yeild more ATP
(5b) Converted into lactic acid (think muscles)
- Krebs Cycle Broken Down
The Krebs cycle, also known as the Citric Acid cycle, is a very important process in cellular respiration. Without this portion, respiration would not be possible. This is because the Krebs cycle uses the pyruvate molecules from glycolysis to produce...
- Glycolysis Broken Down
Glycolysis can be a pretty daunting concept to really get a firm understanding on, with so many different molecule derivatives involved. So here, I will be explaining this process in a step-by-step manner that hopefully, will help alleviate any frustrations....
- Respiration
Respiration is the breakdown of large glucose molecules into simple molecules such as carbon dioxide and water with the simultaneous release of energy inside living cells. It is an enzyme mediated process. Main processes: Glycolysis (glucose to pyruvate,...
- Q: Explain The Small Yield Of Atp From Anaerobic Respiration
In the absence of oxygen, the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl CoA, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation are prevented as oxygen is not available as the final electron acceptor. Hence, only glycolysis can occur, generating 2 molecules of ATP...
- #87 Respiration, Glycolysis
Respiration is the oxidation of energy-containing organic molecules. The energy released from this process is used to combine ADP with inorganic phosphate to make ATP. All cells obtain useable energy through respiration. Most cells use carbohydrate,...
