Front	Back
What happens during the Krebs cycle?	Pyruvic acid is broken into carbon dioxide in a series of reactions
How are high energy electrons used by the electron transport chain?	To convert ADP into ATP
Aerobic	Things that require oxygen Example:Pathways of cellular respiration
Krebs cycle	Second stage of cellular respiration, pyruvic acid is broken down into CO2 in a series of energy extracting reactions
Electron transport chain	Electrons are passed to these during the krebs cycle. Uses these electrons to convert ADP into ATP
