Document Summary
2) in a highly exergonic reaction, with 7. 3 kcal of energy released per mole of atp hydrolyzed: the released phosphate group is transferred to a substrate. 2: combustion of glucose releases energy all at once. Fadh2) or to synthesize atp: as energy is released at each step, nad+ as an electron carrier, in cellular respiration, glucose is oxidized in a series of redox reactions. The partner that becomes reduced is called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (nad+): two electrons and one proton from organic compounds are transferred to. Acetyl coa readily donates the acetyl group to the next step: pdh continues on the oxidation of glucose, key to moving the process along, 1. Redox reaction nad+ to nadh: 3. The free energy released produces atp, nadh and fadh2: the citric acid cycle, also called the krebs cycle, takes place within the mitochondrial matrix (illus. next slide)
