III. Cell Respiration
3
A. Cellular Respiration
Process in which food is broken down to release ATP Occurs in Mitochondria Equation: C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy
5
B. Glycolysis 1st step in the process of cell respiration
1 Glucose is broken 2 pyruvate molecules 2 ATP molecules produced overall Occurs in cytoplasm
10
C. Next the cell has a choice:
Aerobic respiration a. requires O2 b. happens in mitochondria Anaerobic respiration a. no O2 required b. happens in cytoplasm
12
D. Aerobic Respiration 2 Steps:
14
1. Krebs Cycle Pyruvate broken down, releasing: CO2
High energy electrons 2 ATP
16
2. Electron Transport Chain (ETC)
High energy electrons are passed from one molecule to next. Each transfer helps turn one ADP + P ATP 32 ATP produced
24
E. Anaerobic Respiration
Two Types
25
1. Alcoholic Fermentation
Starts with Pyruvate and NADH & Product is ethanol & CO2 Yeast do this in making bread
26
2. Lactic Acid Fermentation
When human muscle cells run out of Oxygen Convert Pyruvate to Lactic Acid Small amount of ATP released
