Identify the reactants in this reaction: 6H2O + 6CO2 ----> C6H12O6 + 6O2
During photosynthesis, different gases move in and out of plant cells. Which phrase best represents the net flow of gases involved in photosynthesis?
Cellular respiration is the process our bodies use to break down and turn it into .
Pink circles represent locations. Purple boxes represent processes.

Use the Video Notes to match each step of the cellular respiration process with the correct location and product.
occurs in cytoplasm
produces: H20 and about 26-34 ATP
produces: CO2, 2 ATP, 2 FADH2, 6 NADH
occurs in inner mitochondrial membrane
produces: 2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, 2 NADH
occurs in mitochondrial matrix
Glycolysis - 1st step
Krebs Cycle - 2nd step
Electron Transport Chain - 3rd step
In the Electron Transport Chain, what is the final acceptor of the electrons that NADH and FADH2 carry?
Cellular Respiration generates about how much ATP in total?
At the beginning of cellular respiration occurs, where glucose is broken down into pyruvate and ATP. This step does not require any oxygen. Therefore, glycolysis is done in aerobic and anaerobic respiration. This means that glycolysis occurs in organisms. The step of glycolysis generates ATP molecules.
