glucose is broken down to pyruvate in the cytoplasm;
with a small yield of ATP / net yield of 2 ATP;
and NADH + H+ / NADH;
aerobic respiration in the presence of oxygen;
pyruvate converted to acetyl CoA;
acetyl CoA enters Krebs cycle;
Krebs cycle yields a small amount of ATP / one ATP per cycle;
and FADH2 / FADH + H+ / NADH / NADH + H+ /
reduced compounds / electron collecting molecules;
these molecules pass electrons to electron transport chain;
oxygen is final electron acceptor / water produced;
electron transport chain linked to creation of an electrochemical gradient;
electrochemical gradient / chemiosmosis powers creation of ATP;
through ATPase;

increasing fructose 6-phosphate concentration (initially) causes an increase
in activity;
activity levels out / remains constant as (substrate) concentration continues
to rise;

at high substrate levels all active sites are occupied so no further increase
in rate / enzyme working at maximum rate;

photosynthesis or respiration.

a food chain includes a producer and consumers;
represents the direction of energy flow;
energy loss occurs between trophic levels;
due to material not consumed / assimilated;
and from heat loss due to cell respiration;
energy passed on from one level to next is 10–20%;
which limits length of food chain;
photosynthesis / producers convert solar energy to chemical
energy (in organic molecules);
consumers obtain necessary energy from eating organisms
of previous trophic level;
an energy pyramid shows the flow of energy from one tropic
level to the next (in a community);
units are energy per unit area per unit time / J m–2 yr–1;
Pyramid of energy – properly drawn, each level no more than
one fifth the width of the level below it, with three correctly
labelled trophic levels eg producer, primary consumer;
