Biology Higher- Citric Acid Cycle
Cards in this deck (8)
- 1Aerobic respirationOxygen present, occurs in Mitochondria
- 2CristaeInner membrane of Mitochondria, folded to increase surface area for ATP production
- 3PyruvateBroken down in carbon dioxide and an acetyl group
- 4Acetyl Groupcontains co-enzyme A to form acetyl
co-enzyme A - 5Oxaloacetatecombines with acetyl coenzyme A to form citrate
- 6Citric Acid cycleoccurs in the central matrix, consists of several enzyme controlled stages, results in the regeneration of oxaloacetate
- 7Dehydrogenase Enzymesremove H ions and high energy elections from the respiratory substrate
- 8Enzyme controlled steps3NAD becomes 3NADH, FAD becomes FADH2, ADP and Pi becomes ATP and 2CO2 is released
