Situation: the autotrophs have produced sugar and oxygen. Energy 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 Now – how do we RELEASE the energy in that sugar?
Need to turn the sugar into ATP is the cell’s energy molecule ATP
What Does ATP Do for You? It supplies YOU with ENERGY!
How Do We Get Energy From ATP? By breaking the last P – P bond Adenine P P Adenine P P
How Does That Happen? An Enzyme! ATPase
When is ATP Made in the Body? During cellular respiration both plants & animals do it!
Cellular Respiration: releasing the energy in food as ATP
Question: In what kinds organisms does cellular respiration take place?
Cellular Respiration is the reverse of photosynthesis C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O+ energy ATP
What are the Stages of Cellular Respiration? In cytoplasm 1. Glycolysis (sugar is split) In mitochondria: 2. The Krebs Cycle (citric acid cycle) 3. The Electron Transport Chain
ETC Krebs Cycle Glycolysis
Look at textbook pp 222 - 228
Step 1: Glycolysis Glucose 2 pyruvic acid C-C-C-C-C-C C-C-C + C-C-C http://www.northland.cc.mn.us/biology/Biology1111/animations/glycolysis.html
Mitochondria Organelle where cellular respiration takes place.
Step 2: Kreb’s Cycle C-C-C CO2 & a whole bunch of NADHs http://www.science.smith.edu/departments/Biology/Bio231/krebs.html
Electron Transport Chain High energy electrons used to convert ADP to ATP http://www.science.smith.edu/departments/Biology/Bio231/etc.html
ATP + H2O Glycolysis C-C-C-C-C-C O2 C-C-C CR: 36 NET ATP ETC Krebs Cycle CO2 + NADH ATP + H2O

But what happens when there is no oxygen present?
Only Glycolysis can occur C-C-C-C-C-C C-C-C ETC Krebs Cycle
Fermentation Occurs when O2 is NOT present Two types: AKA anaerobic respiration Two types: Lactic Acid fermentation (muscle cells) Alcoholic fermentation (yeast) Nets only 2 ATP (instead of 36)
Lactic Acid Fermentation Animals (pain in muscle after workout) C C C C C Glycolysis Pyruvic acid Lactic Acid glucose
Alcohol Fermentation glucose Pyruvic Ethanol Plants and Fungi beer and wine C C C C C Glycolysis Pyruvic acid Ethanol glucose
Aerobic or Anaerobic Respiration
Question: Glucose (carbohydrate) is the main source of food for making ATP from cellular respiration. What other food molecules can be used in Cellular Respiration?
Other organic molecules used for fuel: 1. Carbohydrates: polysaccharides 2. Fats: glycerols and fatty acids 3. Proteins: amino acids
