Question

In glycolysis, as in all the stages of cellular respiration, the transfer of electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors plays a critical role in the overall conversion of the energy in foods to energy in ATP. These reactions involving electron transfers are known as oxidation-reduction, or redox, reactions. Drag the words on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences.

1. When a compound donates (loses) electrons, that compound becomes . Such a compound is often referred to as an electron donor.
2. When a compound accepts (gains) electrons, that compound becomes . Such a compound is often referred to as an electron acceptor.
3. In glycolysis, the carbon-containing compound that functions as the electron donor is .
4. Once the electron donor in glycolysis gives up its electrons, it is oxidized to a compound called .
5. is the compound that functions as the electron acceptor in glycolysis.
6. The reduced form of the electron acceptor in glycolysis is .

Answer 1

Answer:

Oxidized,Reduced,reductant,oxidant, NAD+,NADH

Explanation:

1 when a compound donates electrons the compound becomes oxidized.such a compound is referred to as electron donor.

2 when a compound accept electron the compound becomes reduced such a compound often referred to as electron acceptor.

3 In glycolysis once the carbon containing compound that functions as electron donor is reductant.

4 once the electron donor in glycolysis gives up its electron ,it is oxidized to a compound called oxidant.

5 NAD+ is the compound that function as electron acceptor in glycolysis.

6 The reduced form of electron acceptor in glycolysis is NADH.
