Project managers were the only ones who could talk about the process, not just the product. And, usually, you were the person who had the charm to do it.
Fermentation is less efficient at using the energy from glucose: only 2 ATP are produced per glucose, compared to the 38 ATP per glucose nominally produced by aerobic respiration. This is because the waste products of fermentation still contain chemical potential energy that can be released by oxidation.
Glucose is oxidized during glycolysis. What molecule has been reduced? In other words, what molecule collects the electrons (reduced) that have been stripped off of the glucose molecule (oxidized)? 2. . Describe how pyruvic acid, a three carbon molecule, (each of the two that was derived from glycolysis) becomes acetyl CoA. 3. Describe the electron transport chain in the mitochondrial membrane by answering the following questions:
