Well it has less electrons than it had before. That is the definition of oxidation. The loss of electrons is oxidation. The gain of electrons is reduction.

If a molecule of ATP is oxidized becomes?
ADP
Would a fully oxidized or fully reduced molecule be a better cellular energy source?
reduced
In glycolysis for each molecule of glucose oxidized to pyruvate?
2 molecules of ATP are used and 4 molecules of ATP are produced.
When FADH2 has become FAD it has been what?
oxidized. when fad reacts to fadh2 it is said to be reduced
How is energy stored in respiration?
Chemical energy is stored in form of bonds
When a molecule loses an electron the molecule has been?
When a molecule loses an electron the molecule has been ionized and oxidized.
When a glucose molecule loses a hydrogen atom as the result of an oxidation-reduction reaction the molecule becomes?
oxidized
If a molecule of ATP is oxidized becomes?
ADP
Can a photon be oxidized by an electron from the valence shell of a molecule?
Photons are not oxidized. They are energy. A photon may be captured by an atom or molecule resulting in a change to the state of atoms.
When a molecule of glucose is completely oxidized its six carbon atoms are changed into what?
Carbon atoms from a complex organic food molecule, such as glucose, are completely oxidized at the end of its reaction chain. Carbon dioxide is the waste that is released as a result of this reaction.

What loses energy?
Oxidation occurs when a molecule loses an electron or increases its oxidation state when a molecule is oxidized it loses energy.
A molecule that gives up an electron becomes both ionized and oxidized?
true
How many carbon dioxide molecules are produced for every glucose molecule completely oxidized?
Six CO2 molecules will be produced for every glucose molecule completely oxidized. Glucose contains six Carbon atoms, hence the six CO2 molecules.
Would a fully oxidized or fully reduced molecule be a better cellular energy source?
reduced
How many ATP molecules can the cell synthesize for each molecule of pyruvate oxidized to carbon dioxide and water?
7
Which 3 types of reactions are ALWAYS redox reactions?
Redox reactions are divided into two main types.(i) Inter molecular Redox:In such redox reactions, one molecule of reactant is oxidized whereas molecule of other reactant is reduced.(ii)Intra molecular Redox:One atom of a molecule is oxidized and other atom of same molecule is reduced then it is intramolecular redox reaction.e.g., 2Mn2O7 4MnO2 + 3O2.
