To complete: The concept map to summarize the key concepts of cellular respiration.
Introduction:
The process of breathing and cellular respiration are closely associated. By breathing, an individual takes oxygen into the lungs and passes it to the blood. The blood carries the oxygen to cells where cellular respiration is carried out. Cellular respiration generates energy that is utilized for various cellular activities. There are several steps in cellular respiration; it includes glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation and citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
Answer to Problem 1CC
Pictorial representation: The Fig. 1 shows the vital concepts in cellular respiration.
Fig.1: Concepts map of cellular respiration.
Explanation of Solution
(a)
Correct answer: Glycolysis
Explanation:
Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration which occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. The glycolysis process results in a breakdown of one glucose molecule into a three-carbon compound called pyruvate.
Hence, the correct answer is glycolysis.
(b)
Correct answer: Pyruvate oxidation and citric acid cycle
Explanation:
Pyruvate oxidation and the citric acid cycle are the second stage of the cellular respiration which takes place in the mitochondria. Here, pyruvate is oxidized into a two-carbon compound called acetyl Co-A. The citric acid cycle then completes the breakdown of glucose to carbon dioxide.
Hence, the correct answer is pyruvate oxidation and citric acid cycle.
(c)
Correct answer: Oxidative phosphorylation
Explanation:
Oxidative phosphorylation is the third stage of the cellular respiration. This involves electron transport and chemiosmosis. Oxidative phosphorylation is responsible for most of the ATP formation during the process of cellular respiration.
Hence, the correct answer is oxidative phosphorylation.
(d)
Correct answer: Oxygen
Explanation: Cellular respiration requires oxygen to trap the electrons in an electron transport chain. This helps in the generation of ATP by oxidative phosphorylation.
Hence, the correct answer is oxygen.
(e)
Correct answer: Electron transport chain
Explanation:
Electron transport chain is a series of an arranged molecular system in the mitochondrial cristae that passes the electrons to generate a proton potential across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This is required for oxidative phosphorylation and chemiosmosis.
Hence, the correct answer is electron transport chain.
(f)
Correct answer: CO2
Explanation:
Cellular respiration oxidizes the glucose and the organic fuels into carbon dioxide (CO2) and water molecules (H2O).
Hence, the correct answer is CO2.
(g)
Correct answer: H2O
Explanation:
Cellular respiration oxidizes the glucose and the organic fuels into carbon dioxide (CO2) and water molecules (H2O).
Hence, the correct answer is H2O.

Your first task though is to convince yourself that is true. The best way to do that is to start close to home. Find something in your house that is a product obtained directly from an invertebrate or only due to an invertebrate’s actions. Describe the product, its function and utility, as well as any human manufactured alternatives. Be sure to highlight the advantages of obtaining this directly from nature. Keep in mind, a product can be something you use, wear, eat, or enjoy for its visual appeal.arrow_forwardUse the following tree diagram to answer Questions #8-10. 8) Which of the following two animals are the most closely related based on the tree to the left? a) Pig and camel b) Hippo and pig c) Deer and cow 9) CIRCLE on the tree diagram where the common ancestor between a hippo and a cow is. 10) Put a SQUARE on the tree diagram where the common ancestor between a pig and a peccary is.arrow_forward
