Respiration in plants

3. Iron-containing proteins that act as electron carriers in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
6. The chemical process of removing a carbon atom in the form of CO2 during the Krebs cycle.
8. These enter the respiratory pathway as deaminated amino acids during starvation.
12. The electron carrier produced during the oxidation of Succinate in the Citric Acid Cycle.
19. The full name of the TCA cycle is the __________ Acid Cycle.
20. Respiration that requires the presence of oxygen to yield high amounts of ATP.
23. The process of losing electrons or hydrogen; the core chemical reaction in respiration.
24. A common fatty acid substrate mentioned in NCERT that has an RQ value of 0.7.

1. The specific inner compartment of the mitochondria where the TCA cycle occurs.
2. The first enzyme used in glycolysis to phosphorylate glucose.
4. The final hydrogen/electron acceptor at the very end of the transport chain.
5. The common name for the Citric Acid Cycle, named after the scientist who elucidated it.
7. The space between the two mitochondrial membranes where protons (H+) accumulate.
9. These molecules enter the respiratory pathway after being broken down into Acetyl CoA.
10. Respiration or fermentation that occurs in the absence of oxygen.
11. The general term for a compound (like glucose or fats) that is oxidized to release energy.
13. A class of enzymes responsible for removing hydrogen atoms from substrates.
14. The preferred respiratory substrate for most living organisms.
15. The very first 6-carbon product formed in the Krebs cycle.
16. Organisms that can only survive in the presence of oxygen are called _______ aerobes.
17. A type of fermentation seen in yeast that produces ethanol and CO2.
18. The reduced form of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide that carries electrons to the ETS.
21. The specific complex in the ETS known as ATP Synthase.
22. A 4-carbon intermediate in the Krebs cycle formed by the hydration of Fumarate.
