Chemiosmosis
Acetyl CoA
Aerobic
Process that requires oxygen
Fermentation
A catabolic process that makes a limited amount of ATP from glucose without an electron transport chain and that produces a characteristic end product, such as ethyl alcohol or lactic acid.
Anabolism
Metabolic pathways that construct molecules, requiring energy.
electron carrier produced during the Krebs cycle
Mitocondrion
electron carrier involved in glycolysis
prepartory reaction
parent drug more polar metabolite
Cytochromes
proteins that play a key role in electron transport chains in mitochondria and chloroplasts
Anaerobic
Process that does not require oxygen
Electron Transport Chain (ETC)
citric acid cycle
Completes the breakdown of glucose by oxidizing a derivative of pyruvate to carbon dioxide.
oxygen dept
amount of oxygen requirement to oxidize lactic acid produced anaerobically during strenous muscle activity.
Catabolism
substrate-level phosphorylation
The enzyme-catalyzed formation of ATP by direct transfer of a phosphate group to ADP from an intermediate substrate in catabolism.
Process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
Glycolysis
A metabolic process that breaks down carbohydrates and sugars through a series of reactions to either pyruvic acid or lactic acid and release energy for the body in the form of ATP
