Cellular Respiration
Adenosine Triphosphate Universal energy carrier of the cell Active transport Reproduction Movement Muscle contractions Protein synthesis Hydrolysis of ATP ATP + H2O ADP + Pi + Energy Energy used to produce heat & drive processes
Cellular Respiration C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP Primarily in mitochondria Chemical energy in glucose converted to ATP Necessary for both consumers (heterotrophs) and producers (autotrophs)
Glycolysis Start: Glucose (6-carbon molecule) 2ATP energizes the glucose Phosphate breaks from ATP Glucose (6C) broken into two Pyruvates (3C) Finish: Two pyruvates 4 ATPs NADH (H carriers)
Glucose (6 carbon molcule) ADP ADP ADP Pyruvate ATP ATP ADP Pyruvate ATP ATP ATP ATP NAD+ NAD+
Glycolysis Summary
Kreb’s Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle) Step 1: Pyruvate broken down Pyruvate (3C) is split into Acetic Acid (2C) and CO2 More NADH created
Pyruvate #1 Pyruvate #2 CO2 CO2 NAD NAD Acetic acid Acetic acid
Step 2: Coenzyme A Acetic Acid (2C) combines with coenzyme A to create Acetyl-CoA (2C)
Step 3: Citric Acid formed Acetyl-CoA (2C) binds with 4C molecule (from previous Kreb’s cycle) Citric Acid (6C) created
Acetyl coA #1 Acetyl coA #2 citric acid citric acid 4 carbon molecule
Step 4: Citric Acid broken down Citric Acid (6C) broken into 5C molecule CO2 waste created More NADH created
Citric acid 5C molecule Citric acid 5C molecule NAD+ NAD+ CO2 CO2
Step 5: 5C molecule broken down 5C molecule broken down into 4C molecule CO2 waste created More NADH created ATP created
5C molecule 5C molecule 4C molecule 4C molecule CO2 CO2 ADP ADP ATP NAD+ NAD+ CO2 CO2 ADP ADP
Step 6: 4C molecule rearranged Enzymes rearrange the 4C molecule More NADH, FADH2 created

Electron Transport Chain Step 1: Electrons removed Electrons removed from NADH and FADH2
Step 2: Hydrogen Ions Transported Proteins pump H+ ions across inner membrane of mitochondria H+ ions accumulate
H+ ions diffuse through protein channels to bind ADP + Pi ATP ATP ATP ATP Step 3: ATP produced H+ ions diffuse through protein channels to bind ADP + Pi 34 ATP created ATP
Step 4: Water created Oxygen binds with H+ ions to create 6H2O as a waste
