Level: Grade 12
1. Where is the energy,  released during cellular respiration, stored?
mitochondrion
ATP
nucleus

2.

Glycolysis is ...


a metabolic pathway
is a process that consumes energy
a process which occurs only in animals
a process that converts one molecule of glucose into two moleciules of pyruvate
found in all living organisms
an enzyme
also a process which makes energy in the form of two molecuies of ATP

3. In the Kreb's Cycle the manufacture of enzymes is dependent on -
none of the above
ribosomes
DNA
carbon dioxide

4.

The infolded and therefore increased surface of the cristae houses the                           machinery needed for ...


ATP formation
fermentation
anaerobic respiration
lactic acid formation

5. Mitochondria possess their own genetic material and are therefore able to manufacture their own RNAs and proteins.
