Why is the formation of ATP by ATP synthase referred to as oxidative phosphorylation?
A. A phosphate is transferred from oxygen to ADP to form ATP
B. Oxygen provides the mechanical energy that is used to create ATP from ADP
C. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, which creates the proton gradient necessary to power ATP synthase
D. ADP combines with oxygen to form ATP
How will the cell shift its metabolic processes in response to the level of pyruvate and in order to produce ATP?
A. It will shift from aerobic respiration to fermentation
B. It will shift from aerobic respiration to anaerobic respiration
C.It will continue with aerobic metabolism using oxygen in the cytosol to make ATP
D. It will shift from anaerobic respiration to fermentation
During glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, and the citric acid cycle, NADH is produced. The citric acid cycle also produces FADH2. What is the purpose of these molecules?
a. to produce carbon dioxide to breathe out
b. to produce oxygen that is needed for the electron transport chain
c. to carry electrons to the electron transport chain
d. to provide the ADP and phosphate that are needed to make ATP
