Question

match the ten items to their correct description!!
j. what molecule does glycolysis breakdown to make pyruvate as an end product?
a. lactic acid
b. how many atp
et\ does glycolysis produce?
b. 36
c. another term for the anaerobic pathway which occurs without oxygen
c. etc
d. fermentation
e. 2
f. anaerobic respiration in our cells can lead to the production of this toxic byproduct
f. carbon dioxide
g. aerobic respiration
h. both the krebs cycle and etc take place in this organelle
h. mitochondria
i. the krebs cycle produces this molecule that we exhale to release the oxidized glucose
i. oxygen
j. glucose
a. this is the name of producing energy from food molecules in the presence of oxygen

• the electron carrier molecules produced in the krebs cycle travel here to make 34 atp
• the etc requires this molecule that we breathe in to remove spent electrons from the inner membrane
• this is the total theoretical production of atp in eukaryotes

Explanation:

• Glycolysis breaks down glucose (\(J\)) to form pyruvate.
• Glycolysis has a net production of \(2\) ATP (\(E\)).
• Fermentation (\(D\)) is the anaerobic pathway.
• Lactic acid (\(A\)) is a toxic by - product of anaerobic respiration in human cells.
• The Krebs Cycle and ETC occur in the mitochondria (\(H\)).
• The Krebs Cycle produces carbon dioxide (\(F\)) which we exhale.
• Aerobic respiration (\(G\)) is energy production from food in the presence of oxygen.
• The electron - carrier molecules from the Krebs Cycle go to the ETC (\(C\)) to make 34 ATP.
• The ETC requires oxygen (\(I\)) to remove spent electrons.
• The total theoretical ATP production in eukaryotes is \(36\) (\(B\)).

Answer:

J. glucose, B. 2, C. fermentation, F. lactic acid, H. mitochondria, I. carbon dioxide, A. aerobic respiration, - (ETC), - (oxygen), - (36)
