Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 10.43 Krebs Cycle and Oxidative Phosphorylation skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Which systems statement best integrates matter and energy in the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation?

ACarbon matter becomes the proton gradient, oxygen exits as glucose, and ATP stores no energy.

BElectrons become carbon atoms, protons become oxygen gas, and the Krebs cycle makes sunlight.

CMatter disappears in the matrix, while energy is created from nothing at ATP synthase.

DCarbon matter exits as CO2, electrons reduce oxygen to water, and electron energy drives a proton gradient for ATP synthesis.

Solution & Explanation:Aerobic respiration rearranges matter into CO2 and water while transferring electron energy to a proton gradient and ATP.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Use the respiration trace. ADP is added at minute 1, and cyanide is added at minute 4. What interpretation best explains the trace after minute 4?

ACyanide supplies extra oxygen, so the line should represent faster ATP production.

BCyanide only adds ADP, so electron transport should continue normally.

CCyanide blocks the terminal electron-acceptor step, stopping oxygen consumption and ATP production.

DCyanide converts proton gradients into glucose and increases respiration.

Solution & Explanation:Cyanide prevents electrons from reaching oxygen, so oxygen consumption, proton pumping, and ATP production stop.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Use the graph showing CO2 release after oxygen drops. Why does CO2 release continue briefly and then fall?

ACO2 release continues because oxygen is converted directly into carbon dioxide forever.

BKrebs cycle reactions continue until oxidized carriers become depleted, then the cycle slows.

CCO2 release stops only when ATP synthase starts making oxygen.

DKrebs cycle reactions require no electron carriers, so oxygen has no indirect effect.

Solution & Explanation:Available NAD+ and FAD allow brief Krebs activity, but carrier recycling fails when oxygen is absent.
