2. Where in the cell does the glycolysis part of cellular respiration occur?

3. Where in the cell does the Krebs (Citric Acid) cycle part of cellular respiration occur?

4. Where in the cell does the electron transport part of cellular respiration occur?

5. How many ATP (net) are made in the glycolysis part of cellular respiration?

6. How many ATP are made in the Kreb’s cycle part of cellular respiration?

7. How many ATP are made in the electron transport part of cellular respiration?

8. In which phase of cellular respiration is carbon dioxide made?

9. In which phase of cellular respiration is water made?

10. In which phase of cellular respiration is oxygen a substrate?

11. In which phase of cellular respiration is glucose a substrate?

12. On average, how many ATP can be made from each NADH during the electron transport process?

13. On average, how many ATP can be made from each FADH2 during the electron transport process?

14. What would happen to the cellular respiration process if the enzyme for one step of the process
were missing or defective?

15. What happens to the high-energy electrons (and hydrogen) held by NADH if there is no O2
present?

16. Explain why this happens.

17. What is the overall reaction for fermentation in yeast?

18. What is the overall reaction for lactic acid fermentation?


19. Only a small part of the energy released from the glucose molecule during glycolysis is stored in
ATP. How is the rest of the energy released? (HINT: It is a product in the overall reaction for
cellular respiration.)
20. Write the complete overall chemical equation for cellular respiration using chemical symbols
instead of words:

____________ + _______________ →_______________+_________________+________________

21. Compare this reaction to the one used for PHOTOSYNTHSIS:


(6 H2O + 6 CO2 + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6 O2) How are these equations related?
