8. Key terms check

Which key term matches this definition?

describes a chemical reaction that results in products with less chemical potential energy than the reactants, plus the release of free energy

9. Key terms check

Which key term matches this definition?

a mechanism of enzyme activity regulation in which the product of a reaction or the final product of a series of sequential reactions inhibits an enzyme for an earlier step in the reaction series

10. Key terms check

Which key term matches this definition?

the steps that follow the partial oxidation of glucose via glycolysis to regenerate NAD+; occurs in the absence of oxygen and uses an organic compound as the final electron acceptor

11. Key terms check

Which key term matches this definition?

the process of breaking glucose into two three-carbon molecules with the production of ATP and NADH
