Where does glycolysis take place?
Cytoplasm
2 of 7
Where does the Krebs cycle take place?
Matrix of mitochondria
3 of 7
What happens to pyruvate in anaerobic conditions? (in human cells)
Accumulates as a product of glycolysis, pyruvate is oxidized by taking in the hydrogen atoms from the redNAD produced in glycolysis. Oxidised to lactate. NAD regenerated and so glycolysis can continue.
4 of 7
What is the advantage of anaerobic respiration in skeletal cells?
Can still release energy from ATP when oxygen is in short supply
5 of 7
What 2 things should scientists do to make sure results are reliable?
Repeat- to get rid of anomalies. Statistical test- find probability of them being due to chance, show results are significant
6 of 7
Why can the source of funding cause problems with scientific work?
They may want particular results, so many not publish results that aren't in line with what they want
