1. 9-1
Cellular Respiration
Food provides living things with the chemical building blocks they need to grow and reproduce

2. Chemical Energy and Food
calorie = the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius.
Glycolysis = the first process that begins the breakdown of glucose to release energy.

3. Overview of Cellular Respiration
Processes that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen.
6O2 + C6H12O CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
(Reactants) (Products)
Oxygen + glucose is converted to carbon dioxide + water + energy

4. Where does Cellular Respiration Take Place?
Mitochondria

5. Chloroplast & Mitochondria
Both plants and animals need energy, so they both have mitochondria!
Only plants have chloroplast!

6. Fermentation
Fermentation = releasing energy from food molecules to produce ATP without oxygen
Anaerobic = “not in air”
Two types
Alcoholic fermentation produces alcohol
Lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid
