Explain why glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle are classified as substrate level phosphorylation.

18 comments:

  1. Glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle are anaerobic. Which means that they do not use oxygen and therefor classified as substrate level phosphorylation.

  2. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle both don't use oxygen, which makes them anaerobic. This is why they are both classified as substrate level phosphorylation.

  3. Glycolysis and the krebs cycle don't use oxygen. Instead they use different substrates throughout their processes instead of oxygen. This is the reason they are referred to as substrate level phosphorylation.

  4. Glycolysis and the krebs cycle are referred to as substrate level phosphorylation is because it is anaerobic which means its doesn't require oxygen.

  5. Glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle are classified as substrate level phosphorylation because they are anaerobic. Anaerobic means that they do not require oxygen.

  7. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle are anaerobic. For this, they do not require oxygen. The use other types of phosphorylation . That is why they considered to be substrate level phosphorylation.

  8. Glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle are both anaerobic, which means they do not use oxygen. They use different substrates during their processes. Because of this, they are both referred to as substrate level phosphorylation.

  10. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle don't use oxygen, so this means that it is anaerobic. For this reason they are considered a substrate level phosphorylation.

  11. Glycolysis is an anaerobic process. The Krebs cycle even though is aerobic it does not use oxygen directly in the cycle. Both these processes do not use oxygen instead they use other substrates. That is why they are referred to as substrate level phosphorylation.

  12. You are not answering the question. It is asking why we call the two processes substrate phosphorylation, not why they are anaerobic. Consider the source of energy and what happens to it.

  13. Phosphorylation refers to the process in which a phosphate group is added to another molecule. In this case it is a phosphate group added to ADP to form ATP. In glycolysis and the krebs cycle, a phosphate group is added to ADP to make ATP without the use of oxygen unlike the electron transport chain(oxidative phosphorylation.)

  14. The electron transport chain is different from glycolysis and the kreb cycle. Glycolysis and the Kreb cycle use O2 to add a phosphate group to the ADP it already has to produce ATP. So by adding this phosphate group, in phosphorylation, it is called substrate level phosphorylation.

  15. Phosphorylation is when a phosphate group is added to ADP to make it ATP. Both the Krebs Cycle and glycolysis are anaerobic which means they do not use oxygen. In these two processes ADP is converted to ATP without the use of oxygen but with substrates.

  16. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle are anaerobic processes, they dont use oxygen,instead of using oxygen they use substrate during the process. The reason they are classified as substrate level phosphorylation is because they use various types of substrate during those processes

  17. The process in which Glycolisis and the Krebs Cycle are used to make phosphate groups making them called Substrate level Phosphorylation. It is an anaerobic process in which bisphosphoglycerate are converted to phosphoglycerate by transferring a phosphate group to ADP.Then pyruvate is made by the transfer of a phosphate group to ADP. ATP from the bisphosphoglycerate is then made to ADP. As ATP is formed by the phosphate groups it enters through the process of Glycolisis in which a pyruvic acid is formed an ATP is made to repeat the cycle. The pyruvic acid is then formed into Acetyl CoA and sent into the Mitochondria in the Krebs Cycle. Acetyl CoA is then broken and combined with other types of bonds to make ADP. The Krebs Cycle and Glycolisis is classified as Substrate level phosphorylation because it is the process in which 4 ATP are made, ATP is made to ADP, or when a phosphate group is converted into ADP then ATP without the use of oxygen.

  18. They are called that because they are both aerobic and make ATP
