    Catabolic reactions generate energy that anabolic reactions utilize to build molecules like DNA and proteins. Glycolysis breaks down glucose into two three-carbon pyruvate molecules, using two ATP molecules to phosphorylate glucose at the first step. ATP stores energy in high-energy bonds between its phosphate groups, which break to release energy for use by cells. For a low glucose level, drinking a sports drink would provide both carbohydrates to raise glucose and electrolytes to replenish what was lost through sweating. The primary role of the electron transport chain is to generate a proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane through electron transport, which is then used by ATP synthase to phosphorylate ADP and generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.

    CELLULAR RESPIRATION: GLYCOLYSIS

    Metabolism can be divided into catabolic and anabolic reactions. How are these connected?
    a. Anabolic reactions produce ADP and catabolic reactions use ATP
    b. Catabolic reactions generate energy that anabolic reactions use
    c. There is no connection between either type of reaction
    d. Anabolic reactions generate energy that catabolic reactions use
    Anabolic reactions utilize the energy generated by catabolic reactions to build big molecules
    such as DNA or proteins.

    Glycolysis breaks down glucose into two pyruvate molecules. How many carbon atoms does
    one molecule of pyruvate contain?
    a. One carbon atom
    b. Three carbon atoms
    c. Four carbon atoms
    d. Six carbon atoms

    The first step of glycolysis consumes energy. Two high energy ATP molecules phosphorylate
    glucose. How do ATP molecules store energy?
    a. Their small size allows for concentrated energy
    b. Conjugated double bonds store high amounts of energy
    c. In the adenosine ring
    d. High energy bonds between phosphate groups
    THe three-phosphate tail of ATP molecule is responsible for energy storage. High energy bonds
    between the phosphate groups break to allow the energy to be utilized.

    What action would you recommend to the point guard (the glucose level is going very low)?
    a. Eat a sandwich
    b. Drink lots of water
    c. Drink a maltose sports drink
    d. Eat something salty

    CELLULAR RESPIRATION: THE ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN


    What is the primary role of the electron transport chain?
    a. To generate a proton gradient so the protons can be pumped through ATP synthase to
    generate ATP
    b. To shift protons into the intermembrane space
    c. To transport electrons into mitochondrial membrane and they can be used to reduce the
    oxygen molecules to water
    d. To bring phosphate across the membrane.
    What two processes are coupled throughout the ETC that together make up oxidative
    phosphorylation?
    a. The oxidation of pyruvate and phosphorylation of ADP
    b. The oxidation and phosphorylation of ATP
    c. The oxidation of electron carriers and phosphorylation of ADP
    d. The oxidation and phosphorylation of protein complexes in the ETC

    Which process involves the diffusion of protons across the mitochondrial membrane?
    a. Proton diffusion
    b. Chemiosmosis
    c. Catabolism
    d. Oxidative Phosphorylation
