True or False: We call the first phase of cellular respiration glycolysis.

Glycolysis is responsible for breaking glucose down into what?

True or False: This is the cellular respiration equation:

C6H12O6 + O2 ------> CO2 + H2O

True or False: Only heterotrophs need to perform cellular respiration.

During which phase of cellular respiration is the most ATP harvested?

Which of the following is NOT a product of cellular respiration?

Many different chemical reactions occur during cellular respiration. It is a process that requires certain resources to get started and in turn it produces resources when it is finished. With all of that being said, why do organisms want to perform cellular respiration? What is the main purpose?

In each phase of cellular respiration there is a certain amount of chemical energy harvested in the form of ATP. On a perfect day, with everything running at 100% efficiency, how many molecules of ATP can we harvest from 1 molecule of glucose?

When an organism is in a low oxygen situation, such as running sprints, cellular respiration ceases and the organism must use a different metabolic pathway for creating energy without oxygen. What do we call this process?

During the Krebs cycle, pyruvic acid molecules are broken down to harvest 2 ATPs. What is created and released as a byproduct of that reaction?

Many electrons are excited during the first two phases of cellular respiration. These electrons hitch a ride on special electron carriers and are dropped off at the Electron Transport Chain. These electrons travel down the ETC and eventually get oxidized. Once this happens, O2 gets converted into…

Where do the reactions of cellular respiration occur?
