Question

Place a single word into each sentences to make it correct, then place each sentences into logical paragraph order. During glycolysis, a small amount of _____ is produced. Much of the energy for ATP synthesis comes from _____ oxidation. Glucose oxidation is also known as _____ and is the process of splitting the sugar. The resulting compounds of glycolysis can undergo other _____ to produce more ATP in the cell. The resulting ATP can be used as an energy source to derive functions like _____ contractions or active transport.

Explanation / Answer

Ans. Correct order of complete sentences:

II. Much of the energy for ATP synthesis comes from glucose oxidation.

Much of energy for ATP synthesis is derived from glucose during cellular respiration.

III. Glucose oxidation is also known as glycolysis and is the process of splitting sugar.

During glycolysis, glucose is oxidized. Glucose (6C) is finally converted (splitting) into two molecules of pyruvate (3C).

I. During glycolysis, a small amount of ATP is produced.

Only 2 ATP are produced (net gain) upon completion of glycolysis.

IV. The resulting compounds of glycolysis can undergo other pathways to produce more ATP in the cell.

Pyruvate (the end product if glycolysis) further undergoes citric acid cycle and electron transport chain (the two pathways ahead of glycolysis during cellular respiration) to produce around 28 ATP from two pyruvates (= 1 glucose) molecules.

V. The resulting ATP can be used as an energy source to drive certain functions like muscle contraction or active transport.

ATP is the cellular currency. Both muscle contraction and active transport require ATP.
