Respiration
Across
- 3. a catabolic metabolic process that uses a molecule other than oxygen as a terminal electron acceptor
- 6. a product of glycolysis
- 9. primary energy currency of a cell
- 10. a molecule that transfers electrons from organic molecules to the ETC
- 12. the process of converting pyruvate to acetyl-coA
- 13. an electron carrier containing nicotinamide
- 14. a molecule that neutralizes free radicals
- 15. a simple metabolic process that produces only 2 ATP per glucose
- 17. the enzyme that catalyzes phosphorylation of ADP to ATP
- 20. the combination of the ETC and chemiosmosis
