Energía en Sistemas Vivientes Energy Metabolism II: The Generation of ATP por David Warmflash, MD, Nathan H Lents, Ph.D. Lectura Prueba Enseñe con esto 1. What is the name of the chemical compound that acts as a universal energy currency in the cell? ADP PO43- ATP Glucose 2. The amount of ATP generated directly during glycolysis is small compared with amount of energy contained within glucose. large compared with the amount of energy contained within glucose. the same as the amount of energy contained within glucose. nonexistent because no ATP is generated during glycolysis. 3. The breakdown of glucose to form pyruvate generates which of the following chemical compounds? Glycolysis FADH+ NAD+ NADH 4. The energy held by energy-holding chemical compounds is contained in electrons. true false 5. Which of the following chemical compounds contains the highest amount of energy that the cell can harness? ADP ATP FADH2 NADH 6. Which of the following occurs outside of the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells? Electrons are “dropped off” at complexes Electron transport Glycolysis Oxidative phosphorylation 7. Mitochondria are _______. enzymes organelles cellular fuel independent organisms 8. Which is NOT true of the electron transport chain (ETC)? The ETC is housed in the mitochondrial membrane. The ETC can accept electrons from other molecules. The ETC is composed of enzymes scattered randomly throughout the cell. The ETC’s electron carriers are arranged into complexes. Resultados de Prueba
