2
Cellular Respiration Harvesting Chemical Energy ATP
3
Energy needs of life Animals are energy consumers What do we need energy for? synthesis reproduction active transport movement temperature control
4
Where do we get energy? Energy is stored in organic molecules carbohydrates, fats, proteins Animals eat these organic molecules food digest food to get fuels for energy (ATP) raw materials for building more molecules carbohydrates, fats, proteins, nucleic acids
5
ATP What is energy in biology? Whoa! Hot stuff!
6
Harvesting energy stored in food Cellular respiration breaking down food to produce ATP in mitochondria using oxygen formula shows glucose, but that is just an example could be other sugars, fats or proteins glucose + oxygen carbon + water + energy dioxide C 6 H 12 O 6 6O 2 6CO 2 6H 2 OATP + +++ heat
7
What do we need to make energy? The “Furnace” mitochondria Fuel food carbohydrates, fats, proteins The Helpers oxygen “aerobic” enzymes O2O2 food ATP Make ATP! Make ATP! All I do all day… And no one even notices!
8
CO 2 + H 2 O + heat fuel (carbohydrates) O2O2 “Burn fuels” to make energy combustion making heat energy by burning fuels in one step ATP CO 2 + H 2 O + ATP (+ heat) respiration making ATP energy (& some heat) by burning fuels in many small steps food (carbohydrates) O2O2
9
Using ATP to do work? A working muscle recycles over 10 million ATPs per second Whoa! Pass me the glucose & oxygen! Can’t store ATP too unstable only used in cell that produces it only short term energy storage carbohydrates & fats are long term energy storage ATP ADP + P work
10
A Body’s Energy Budget eat food synthesis resting energy activity temperature control { growth reproduction { storage glycogen fat { ATP
11
What if oxygen is missing? Can’t complete aerobic respiration alcohol fermentation yeast glucose ATP + CO 2 + alcohol make beer, wine, bread lactic acid fermentation bacteria, animals glucose ATP + lactic acid make yogurt animals feel muscle fatigue O2O2 but only make a little bit of ATP!
12
9-2 The Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport chain WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE KREBS CYCLE? Pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in a series of energy-extracting reactions The Krebs Cycle takes place in the mitochondrial matrix Most of the chemical energy gets transferred to electron carriers NAD+ and FAD+
13
HOW ARE THE HIGH-ENERGY ELECTRONS USED BY THE ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN? The electron transport chain uses high- energy electrons from the Krebs Cycle to convert ADP to ATP This stage takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane ATP
