Chapter 9
Across
- 2. the oxidized and reduced forms of flavin adenine dinucleotide another electron carrier
- 4. the oxidized and reduced forms of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide a major electron carrier
- 7. anaerobes organisms that can make ATP by aerobic respiration if oxygen is present or by fermentation if oxygen is absent
- 10. reactions chemical reactions that involve the transfer of electrons from one reactant to another
- 13. matrix the compartment of the mitochondrion enclosed by the inner membrane
- 14. investment the phase of glycolysis where ATP is consumed to prepare glucose for splitting
- 17. the organelle where the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation occur
- 19. phosphorylation the formation of ATP by the direct transfer of a phosphate group to ADP from an intermediate substrate
- 20. capture the phase of glycolysis where ATP and NADH are produced
- 22. phosphorylation the production of ATP using energy derived from the redox reactions of an electron transport chain
Down
- 1. the process in which energy stored in a hydrogen ion gradient is used to drive cellular work like ATP synthesis
- 3. space the narrow region between the inner and outer mitochondrial membranes
- 5. motive force the potential energy stored in the form of an electrochemical gradient across a membrane
- 6. acid fermentation the conversion of pyruvate to lactate regenerating NAD+
- 8. fermentation the conversion of pyruvate to ethanol and carbon dioxide regenerating NAD+
- 9. respiration the catabolic pathways that break down organic molecules for the production of ATP
- 11. synthase a protein complex that uses the energy of an H+ gradient to make ATP
- 12. the metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate
- 15. dehydrogenase the enzyme complex that converts pyruvate to acetyl CoA
- 16. acid cycle a metabolic cycle that completes the breakdown of acetyl CoA to carbon dioxide releasing energy carriers
- 18. anaerobes organisms that are poisoned by oxygen and must use fermentation or anaerobic respiration
- 21. CoA a molecule that enters the citric acid cycle formed from pyruvate
