What contains enzymes used in the breakdown of glucose and generation of ATP?
Mitochondria
What contains enzymes in the breakdown of glucose and generation of ATP?
The Mitochondria
In the cell which organelles has the function in using oxygen in the breakdown of glucose releasing energy and carbon Dioxide?
The mitochondria.
Does glucose enter cells through cell membrane or mitochondria?
Glucose is diffused through facilitated diffusion in the cell membrane. It is oxidised by glycolysis in the cytoplasm and then the products either go through the mitochondria if oxygen is present or goes through fermentation in the cytosoplasm if no oxygen.
Where does glycoysis occur?
Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose in the respiratory cycle to produce ATP for cellular energy, which happens in the mitochondria.
Which of the following enzymes is not required to breakdown glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate molecules for further metabolism?
All of these enzymes are necessary in the breakdown of glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate molecules.
Where is energy released from living cells following the complete breakdown of glucose?
respiration
The brakdown product of glucose that diffuses into the mitochondrial matrix for further breakdown is?
pyruvic acid.
How does cell convert glucose and oxygen into useable energy?
Actually glycolysis (the breakdown of glucose molecules into smaller parts) is anaerobic, and so happens without oxygen, but the product of this process is taken into the mitochondria and broken down further (Krebs cycle) in the presence of oxygen to make ATP (oxidative phosphorylation).
What is the gas produce from the break down of glucose in the mitochondria?
The main gas produced from the breakdown of glucose in the mitochondria is carbon dioxide (CO2). This occurs during a process called cellular respiration, where glucose is broken down to produce energy in the form of ATP. In addition to CO2, water (H2O) and heat are also produced.
What organelle is used to break down glucose?
Glucose is broken down during cellular respiration to produce a form of energy the cell can use.The first stage, glycolysis, occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. The other phases occur in the mitochondria.
Why are the mitochondria and chloroplast opposite?
Chloroplasts are glucose manufacturers. Mitochondria utilize those glucose
