1.How does the First Law of Thermodynamics apply to REDOX reactions?
2.What is an acronym that will help you remember which element is an electron donor and which element is an electron acceptor in a REDOX Rx? (feel free to make up your own!)
3.What role does NADplay during aerobic respiration?
What is its reduced form?
Why is the reduction of NAD+ an important event (what is the ultimate goal)?
1. Compare and contrast substrate-level phosphorylation with oxidative phosphorylation.
When does each process of ATP production occur?
How much ATP is produced?
2. What are the 3 major stages of aerobic respiration?
What early process will occur w/ or w/o O2?
What happens during the above process?
What determines which pathway pyruvate will take?
Kreb’s Cycle:
1. Summarize the 8 stages of the Krebs cycle including what carbon molecule is produced at each step, when CO2is released, when NADH and FADH2get produced, and when ATP is produced.
2. Why is it important to end up with the molecule that starts the process? What is that molecule?
3. How many turns of the cycle are there per glucose molecule?
4. What is the major goal of the Krebs Cycle? What must be generated during this cycle to allow the ETC to occur?
