Term
Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)
Definition
a chemical form of energy
Term
We can make energy (ATP) in our cells using ________ ____________ and transport it anywhere in our bodies.
Definition
We can make energy (ATP) in our cells using CELLULAR RESPIRATION and transport it anywhere in our bodies.
Term
Cellular Respiration
Definition
_process of releasing chemical energy from organic molecules.
-The process by which organisms make energy is ___________ _____________.
Term
Anaerobic Respiration
Definition
Process of releasing chemical energy from glucose without using oxygen
-Requires the diffusion of glucose into the cell
_takes place in the cells cytoplasm
Term
Aerobic Respiration
Definition
procee that uses oxygen to completely breakdown glucose, releasing all available energy
-Requires the diffusion of the following into the cell: =Glucose (C6H12O6)=Oxygen (O2)
-takes place in the cells mitochondria and cytoplasm
Term
aerobic respiration's 3 stages within the cell
Definition
1. Glycolysis in the cytoplasm
2.Kreb's cycle in the mitochondria matrix
3. Electron transport chain on the inner mitochondial membrane
Term
GLYCOLYSIS
Definition
FOR GLYCOLYSIS TO OCCUR:
-glucose must diffuse into the cell
-occures in cytoplasm
-enzymes in the cytoplasm attaches to a glucose molecule and use the energy from 2 ATP to break into 2 pyruvic acids.
