come back to where they started; has a couple advantages: 1) you make...
|
|
| 12 |
light independent reaction
|
(aka Calvin-Benson
cycle) - in this cycle, the energy from the light dependent reactions (ATP
&...
|

done by yeasts; Take pyruvic acids and convert
them to 2 carbon acetaldehyde, which breaks...
|
|
| 18 |
aerobic respiration
|
after glycolysis you
have net: 2 ATP, 2NADH, 2 pyruvic acid; from here we go to the Krebs...

When
it comes to actual ATP that the cell...
|
|
| 21 |
dif between prokary & eukary
|
in a prokaryote,
glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm, Krebs cycle occurs in the cell membrane;...
|
|
| 22 |
anaerobic respiration
|
identical to aerobic
respiration, except that oxygen is not the final electron acceptor; instead,
this...
|
|
| 23 |
functions of proteins
|
structural
components of the cells, especially the membranes; as part of that, they serve
as...
|
|
| 24 |
how amino acids are created
