Respiration which takes place in the mitochondria, using oxygen. 1 of 19 What is ATP? A co-enzymes made from a nucleotide with three phosphates used as an energy carrier in cells. 2 of 19 What is ATP synthase? an enzyme that utilizes the H+ electrochemical gradient to synthesize ATP. 3 of 19 What is Chemiosmosis? A process for making ATP using the diffusion of protons (hydrogen ions) across the inner membrane through ATP synthase. 4 of 19 What are Cristae? Folds of the inner mitochondrial membrane. 5 of 19 What is Decarboxylation? a chemical reaction that involves the removal of CO2. 6 of 19 What is Electron tomography? a method used to generate a three-dimensional image of the inner mitochondrial membrane. 7 of 19 What is the Electron transport chain? a group of proteins that accept and donate electrons in a series. 8 of 19 What is Glycolysis? a metabolic pathway that breaks glucose down to pyruvate. 9 of 19 What is the Link reaction? a decarboxylation reaction that occurs in the mitochondrion between glycolysis and the Krebs cycle. 10 of 19 What does the term lysis mean? Splitting. 11 of 19 What is the Mitochondrial matrix? The fluid inside the inner membrane of mitochondria. 12 of 19 What is Oxidation? The loss of electrons or loss of hydrogen. 13 of 19 What is Oxidative phosphorylation? The production of ATP through a series of oxidation reactions. 14 of 19 What is Phosphorylation? The addition of a phosphate group to a molecule. 15 of 19 What is Pyruvate? The end product of glycolysis. 16 of 19 What is Reduced NAD? The hydrogen carrying form of NAD, written NADH. 17 of 19 What is Reduction? The gain of electrons, gain of hydrogen, loss of oxygen 18 of 19 What is Oxidation? The loss of electrons, loss of hydrogen or gain of oxygen. 19 of 19
