ATP

Draw and annotate a molecule of ATP to show how it stores and releases energy.

List six cellular process that use ATP as a source of energy.

3.7 Cell Respiration

Define cell respiration.

The ______release of ______in the form of ______from ______in cells.

State the word and symbol equations for the process of cell respiration.

Word:

Symbol:

Identify two organic molecules, other than glucose, which could be used for respiration.

Identify the two components of the cell in which respiration takes place.

Distinguish between aerobic and anaerobic in terms of cell respiration.

Label the diagram of aerobic cell respiration below.

Label the diagram of anaerobic cell respiration below.

Complete the table below, comparing aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Aerobic / Anaerobic
Hexose sugar input in both types of respiration
Oxygen in
2 ATP produced
Pyruvate as an intermediate compound in both types of respiration
Yeast / Animals
Carbon dioxide produced
Water produced

Complete the table below summarizing the events of aerobic cell respiration.

Reaction / Location / Purpose / ATP yield
Glycolysis / 2
Matrix of the mitochondrion / Convert pyruvate (3C) to acetyl CoA (2C) / 0

Inner mitochondrial membrane
Oxidative phosphorylation

Label the diagram below with the correct processes, locations and compounds:

Explain how end-product inhibition controls the rate of ATP production.

8.1/C3 Cell Respiration (AHL/Option content)

Many reactions in living things can be classified as either oxidation or reduction reactions.

These are particularly important in cell respiration and photosynthesis.

Complete the table below to compare oxidation and reduction reactions.

OXIDATION / REDUCTION
Electrons are… / lost
Oxygen is…
Hydrogen is…

Define phosphorylation.

List two ways in which phosphorylation is used in cell respiration.

In the space below, draw a diagram to show the process of glycolysis.

Include phosporylation, lysis, oxidation and ATP formation.

Explain the link reaction, including oxidative decarboxylation and conversion of pyruvate to

acetyl CoA and CO2.

The link reaction produces Acetyl CoA (2C) from the input substrate (usually pyruvate).

The extra carbon is released as carbon dioxide. Acetyl CoA can also be produced from

fatty acids. When the fatty acid chain contains an even number of carbons, no CO2 is

released. How many Acetyl CoA molecules can be produced with the following fatty acids?

23C b. 18C c. 31C

Draw and label a diagram showing the structure of the mitochondrion as seen in a TEM image.

Include the inner and outer mitochondrial membranes, matrix, christae, mitochondrial DNA and ribosomes and a scale bar.

Complete the table below with the functions of the structures of the mitochondrion.

How is each structure adapted to help maximize efficiency of respiration?

Structure: / Function: / Adapted to increase efficiency by:
Outer membrane
Inner membrane
(including christae)
Matrix
Mitochondrial DNA and ribosomes
Inter-membrane space

What is an electron carrier?

List two electron carriers that are used in cell respiration.

State the final destination of electron carriers produced in the Krebs Cycle.

In the space below, draw a diagram of the Krebs cycle.

Include formation of citrate, oxidation, decarboxylation, substrate-level phosphorylation (ATP formation) and production of electron carriers.

Identify compounds in cell respiration that contain:

Six carbons
Four carbons
Three carbons
Two carbons
One carbons
Zero carbons

Annotate the diagram below with the stages of the electron transport chain and oxidative

phosphorylation. Include generation of a H+ concentration gradient in the inter-membrane space, movement of electrons, oxidative phosphorylation by ATP synthase, use of O2 as the terminal electron acceptor

In the space below, using the term ‘chemiosmosis’, describe how ATP synthase works.

Name (with reasons) three tissues in the body that contain high numbers of mitochondria.

Tissue / Reason
Muscle

Explain why high levels of lactic acid might be found in an athlete’s blood test, post-exercise.

Explain why ATP yield in aerobic cell respiration is so much higher than in anaerobic

respiration. (Long answer question – think about knock-on effects of reduced O2). 8 marks

Sample data analysis question (from IB QuestionBank)

At the start of glycolysis, glucose is phosphorylated to produce glucose 6-phosphate, which is converted into fructose 6-phosphate. A second phosphorylation reaction is then carried out, in which fructose 6-phosphate is converted into fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme phosphofructokinase.

Biochemists measured the enzyme activity of phosphofructokinase (the rate at which it catalyzed the reaction) at different concentrations of fructose 6-phosphate. The enzyme activity was measured with a low concentration of ATP and a high concentration of ATP in the reaction mixture. The graph below shows the results.

(a)(i)Using only the data in the above graph, outline the effect of increasing fructose 6-phosphate concentration on the activity of phosphofructokinase, at a low ATP concentration.

(ii)Explain how increases in fructose 6-phosphate concentration affect the activity of the enzyme.
