Best Answer

Oxygen is reacted with energy rich CH2 groups, obtained from both hydrocarbons and lipids, WITHIN the Kreb's, or citric acid, cycle, producing the energy transfer molecule - ATP.

How are fermentation and cellular respiration similar?

Both fermentation and cellular respiration release energy from glucose and other food molecules, making them similar in their processes.


Mitochondria make ATP by?

Cellular respiration. This is the process of energy making through ATP molecules. Glucose and oxygen are the two things that combine in the process of energy-making, cellular respiration. This is a form of oxidation. Cellular respiration occurs in the cells, and it is when ATP molecules, or Adenosine Triphosphate, are created. ATP is energy. Other biproducts are heat, water and Co2.Hope I helped! I'm in 7th grade bio right now, and we're finishing What_is_the_role_of_glucose_in_energy_productionthis.BvR

Plants use sugars as?

fuel for cellular respiration and a starting material for making other organic molecules


What is fermentation in cellular respiration?

Fermentation is used in anaerobic respiration. Fermentation is done to replenish NAD supplies so that glycolysis can continue making ATP in the absence of oxygen.


Is photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?

Yes, the two are opposites of each other. Photosynthesis builds up complex sugars that have a lot of stored energy while cellular respiration breaks down these sugars, release the energy and store it in the form of ATP. The products and wastes of one process end up as the reactants for the other process.


What chemical reaction that occurs during mitochondria?

I think you are asking about the respiration reaction Glucose + oxygen ---> carbon dioxide + water C6H1206 + 6 O2 ---> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O (balanced equation)


How does the role of energy differ in photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Photosynthesis (in green plants) uses sunlight as energy so it can make carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water. Cellular respiration (usually animal cells) makes energy breaking down carbohydrates and produces carbon dioxide and water.


What is the final electron acceptor of the ETC?

In cellular respiration, the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain is half of a diatomic oxygen molecule. This molecule is then reduced when it gains two low-energy electrons attached to two hydrogens, making a molecule of water as a by-product of cellular respiration.
