  3. 5. The fluid part of the cytoplasm where glycolysis takes place.
  4. 6. Respiration that occurs without oxygen, producing less ATP.
  5. 7. An element essential for ATP formation, found in the phosphate groups of ATP.
  6. 8. cycle that generates electron carriers and CO2 in the mitochondria during cellular respiration.
  7. 11. The organelle where most of the ATP is produced in cellular respiration.
  8. 12. An electron acceptor that is reduced to NADH during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle.
  9. 13. An electron carrier that transfers energy to the electron transport chain.
  10. 15. A byproduct of anaerobic respiration, especially in muscle cells during intense activity.
  11. 16. The sugar that is broken down during glycolysis to start cellular respiration.
  12. 17. Molecule that is converted into ATP during cellular respiration by adding a phosphate group.
