Active transport process by which materials are secreted or expelled from a cell?
exocytosis not glycolysis because glycolysis is the making of glucose
What stages in the process of aerobic respiration make it an aerobic process?
Because oxygen is the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, the electron transport chain makes aerobic respiration aerobic.
Which does not take place in the mitochondria of the cell?
Glycolysis. The Krebs cycle and Electron Transport Chain or Oxidative Phosphorylation both occur in the Mitochondria. For photosynthesis, the process takes place in the chloroplasts which are in the mesophyll cells of the leaves. Don't know if this answer is going to help. And because of this i think i m going to have to do my ap bio hw tomoro. thanks a lot.
Why is the cristae the only possible place for the electron transport molecule in the mitochodria?
Because the electron carrier molecules, such as the cytochromes, are located in the cristae.
Is nitrogen required in the stage of respiration?
Yes, oxygen is the fuel for respiration... oxygen + glucose = carbod dioxide + water + Energy However, the carbon dioxide and oxygen for a plant or tree would be the other way round because plants breath in co2 and give out oxygen.
Why do biologists believe glycolysis evolved before the Krebs cycle and electron transport chain?
Because it is universal, takes place in the cytosol and does not require oxygen.
Active transport process by which materials are secreted or expelled from a cell?
exocytosis not glycolysis because glycolysis is the making of glucose
Where are the enzymes for electron transport located in bacteria if they don't have internal membranes?
Incorrect: Some bacteria do not have an electron transport chain and just glycolysis. If they do have an electron transport chain, then it would take place in the mitochondria.User response: Actually bacteria do not have a mitochondrium. Their electron transport chain is located inside their cytoplasmic membrane.
The breakdown of glucose for energy is called?
Fermentation
Why mitochondrion is called powerhouse of the cell?
Mitochondria are the powerhouses of cells because they are the epicenter of the electron transport chain. While glycolysis can occur in the cytoplasm, the bulk of energy production takes place due to a hydrogen concentration gradient found in the mitochondria.
What stages in the process of aerobic respiration make it an aerobic process?
Because oxygen is the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, the electron transport chain makes aerobic respiration aerobic.
Why is hydrogen important to cellular respiration?
Because the crucial process of electron transport occurs along the Electron-Transport-Chain using/employing H+. (Short Answer)

How many ATP molecules are produced by the electron transport chain by glycolysis?
A net of two ATP are produced during glycolysis.
Why is the cristae the only possible place for the electron transport molecule in the mitochodria?
Because the electron carrier molecules, such as the cytochromes, are located in the cristae.
Because cellular respiration requires oxygen it is said to be?
If oxygen is available, the process is an aerobic respiration, in opposite to anaerobic respiration, which does not need oxygen. More info can be found on http://en.wikipedia.org.wiki/Cellular_respiration
Insects exposed to rotenone will die because?
It is an insecticide, it is also toxic to fish
