Homework Answers
Answer-
In respiration simple sugars like glucose is oxidized within the mitochondria of the cell into CO2 and water to release energy.
Respiration within a cell takes place into two parts-
1. GLYCOLYSIS- This process takes place within the cytoplasm of the cell. In this step glucose is converted into pyruvic acid.
By glycolysis, the following reaction takes place:
1 Glucose molecule -------------> 2 pyruvate + ATP +NADP
(6 Carbon molecule) (3 carbon molecule)
2. KREB'S CYCLE- This takes place within the mitochondria. Pyruvic acid is converted into CO2 and H2O by energy currency (ATP, NADPH, etc) at each step.
Phosphorylation- This is also called energy building step, as this step involves addition of Phosphate to organic molecule.
ADP +iP ----> ATP
Sugar cleavage- I this complex sugar are broken into smaller parts or units. Example- sucrose gets cleaved into glucose and fructose.
Fermentation- In this, micro organism breaks sugars into alcohol and water and release small amount of energy.
Electron transport- This involves transfer of electrons in a series of redox reactions to produce ATP.
Answer: A step in respiration during which sugar is oxidized to pyruvic acid is called as glycolysis.
