Across
  1. 2. provides electron carriers needed for the electron transport chain
  2. 6. where pyruvate oxidation and the krebs cycle occur
  3. 8. series of inner membrane proteins that receive electrons and pump H+ ions in the intermembrane space
  4. 9. glucose is broken down to create ATP and other byproducts
  5. 11. electrons are taken from electron carriers and transferred into proteins in the inner membrane
  6. 14. lower pH than the mitochondrial matrix, where the H+ gradient is created
Down
  1. 1. protein that synthesizes ATP
  2. 3. released during cellular respiration
  3. 4. loss of electrons during a reaction
  4. 5. glucose is broken down into__
  5. 7. process by which the H+ ion gradient powers a protein that then synthesizes ATP
  6. 10. final electron acceptor
  7. 12. requiring oxygen
  8. 13. electron carrier
  9. 15. reaction resulting in the release of energy
