Cellular Respiration Alyssa Roberts

4. an example of ethanol
6. the three carbon compound that is produced during glycolysis
7. a compound that is synthesized by cells
9. the anaerobic process that breaks down sugars to form carbon dioxide and ethanol
11. the process by which cells obtain energy from carbohydrates;atmospheric oxygen combines with glucose to form water and CO2
12. the process in which pyruvic acid is broken down and NADH is used to make a large amount of ATP
13. a series of biochemical reactions that convert pyruvic acid into carbon dioxide and water
15. the cell organelle that is surrounded by two membranes and the site of cellular respiration
16. core component of ATP
17. site of an electron transport chain
18. a six carbon compound formed in the krebs cycle
19. flavin adenine dinucleotide
21. a four carbon compund of krebscycle tat forms citric acid
23. the region of the cell within the membrane that includes all organelles except the nucleus

1. the anaerobic breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid, which makes a small amount of ATP
2. an organic molecule that acts as the main energy source for cell processes
3. the breakdown of carbohydrates by enzymes in the absence of oxygen
5. a series of molecules, found in the inner membranes of mitochondria and chloroplasts, where electrons transport through
8. the chemical breakdown of carbohydrates that produces lactic acid asthe main end product
10. a series of chemical reactions
11. an example of lactic acid
14. an organic molecule that serves as an electron carrier and reduced to NADH
20. describes a process that does not require energy
22. an enzyme that creates theenergy storage molecule ATP
