Document Summary

At this point, pyruvate can either be used: Exam 3 notes in fermentation to form fermentation products (alcohols, acids, gases) in respiration, (tca cycle) to be fully oxidized to carbon dioxide; this makes more atp, so if an organism has a choice it will choose respiration. Fermentation (can occur in the presence of o2) From 1 glucose molecule a net of 2 atp are produced partial oxidation of glucose reduction of pyruvate fermentation products. From 1 glucose molecule up to 38 atp are produced complete oxidation of glucose to co2 oxidation of pyruvate by tca cycle uses electron transport chain (etc) and atp synthase. Fermentation: during fermentation, glycolysis occurs followed by fermentation reactions. (no tca, no etc, during glycolysis, electrons from glucose are passed to 2 nad+ creating 2 nadh. In fermentation, electrons from nadh are passed to pyruvate, regenerating nad+ so glycolysis can continue.
