Chapter 10 Biology
Across
- 4. contributes to oxidation in cell processes like glycolysis to help with the oxidation of glucose
- 5. innermost compartment of the mitochondrion
- 8. carried out by yeast, producing ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide
- 9. amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius
- 13. fermentation that does not give off CO2
- 15. adenosine triphosphate: the source of energy for use and storage at the cellular level
- 16. a simple sugar which is an important energy source in living organisms and is a component of many carbohydrates
- 17. four high-energy electrons are passed to the carrier NAD+ to produce NADH. NADH carries these electrons to the electron transport chain
- 18. process that does not require oxygen
Down
- 1. process by which cells release energy in the absence of oxygen
- 2. second stage of cellular respiration in which pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in a series of energy extracting reactions
- 3. a yellowish organic acid which occurs as an intermediate in many metabolic processes, especially glycolysis
- 6. process that requires oxygen
- 7. a cluster of proteins that transfer electrons through a membrane within mitochondria to form a gradient of protons that drives the creation of ATP
- 10. High energy electron carrier used to transport electrons generated in Glycolysis and Krebs Cycle to the Electron Transport Chain
- 11. process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
- 12. first set of reactions in cellular respiration during which a molecule of glucose is broken into two molecules of pyruvic acid
- 14. electron carrier involved in glycolysis
