GlycolysisA metabolic process that breaks down carbohydrates and sugars through a series of reactions to either pyruvic acid or lactic acid and release energy for the body in the form of ATP
Cytochromesproteins that play a key role in electron transport chains in mitochondria and chloroplasts
Completes the breakdown of glucose by oxidizing a derivative of pyruvate to carbon dioxide.
substrate-level phosphorylationThe enzyme-catalyzed formation of ATP by direct transfer of a phosphate group to ADP from an intermediate substrate in catabolism.
electron carrier produced during the Krebs cycle
AnaerobicProcess that does not require oxygen
cellular respiration
Acetyl CoAthe entry compound for the citric acid cycle in cellular respiration, formed from a fragment of pyruvate attached to a coenzyme
Anabolism
Electron Transport Chain (ETC)
Mitocondrion
prepartory reaction
A catabolic process that makes a limited amount of ATP from glucose without an electron transport chain and that produces a characteristic end product, such as ethyl alcohol or lactic acid.
Aerobic
CatabolismMetabolic pathways that break down molecules, releasing energy.
Chemiosmosis
The enzyme-catalyzed formation of ATP by direct transfer of a phosphate group to ADP from an intermediate substrate in catabolism.

Acetyl CoA
Anabolism
Cell organelle that converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use
cellular respirationProcess that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
Process that does not require oxygen
citric acid cycleCompletes the breakdown of glucose by oxidizing a derivative of pyruvate to carbon dioxide.
electron carrier produced during the Krebs cycle
Electron Transport Chain (ETC)series of electron carrier proteins that shuttle high-energy electrons during ATP-generating reactions
AerobicProcess that requires oxygen
GlycolysisA metabolic process that breaks down carbohydrates and sugars through a series of reactions to either pyruvic acid or lactic acid and release energy for the body in the form of ATP
NAD+electron carrier involved in glycolysis
ChemiosmosisProcess by which a Hydrogen pump pumps protons into the thylakoid membrane. H+ passively flows through the ATP synthase which leads to the creation of ATP.
oxygen deptamount of oxygen requirement to oxidize lactic acid produced anaerobically during strenous muscle activity.
