  1. Chapter 6 Cellular Respiration: Obtaining Energy from Food General Biology CM Lamberty

  2. Biology and Society

  3. Energy Flow and Chemical Cycling • Animals depend on plants to covert solar energy to • Photosynthesis

  4. Producers and Consumers • Plants and other autotrophs (self-feeders) • Heterotrophs (other-feeders) • Producers • Consumers

  5. Chemical Cyclying: Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration • Chemical ingredients for photosynthesis • Chloroplasts • Cellular respiration

  6. Chemical Cyclying: Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration • Waste products of cellular respiration • Animals • Plants

  7. Cellular Respiration : Aerobic Harvest of Food Energy • Respiration • Cellular respiration

  8. Overall Equation of Cellular Respiration • Glucose • Many chemical steps

  9. Role of Oxygen in Cellular Respiration • 38 ATP for each glucose

  10. Redox Reactions • Chemical reactions involving transfer of electrons • Loss of electrons: • Gain of electrons:

  11. Cellular respiration is a fall of electrons • Results in release of energy

  12. NADH and Electron Transport Chains • Path of electrons from glucose to oxygen • NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) • NADH transfers electrons via electron transport chain

  13. Overview of Cellular Respiration • Metabolic pathway • Three stages of cellular respiration • Glycolysis • Citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) • Electron transport

  14. Three Stages of Cellular Respiration • Stage 1: Glycolysis • (w/ most of E)

  15. INPUT OUTPUT 2 ATP 2 ADP Glucose Key Carbon atom Phosphate group High-energy electron Energy investment phase Figure 6.7-1

  16. Three Stages of Cellular Respiration • Stage 2: Citric Acid Cycle

  17. Three Stages of Cellular Respiration • Stage 3: Electron Transport

  18. Versatility of Cellular Respiration • Cellular respiration can also “burn”: • Diverse types of carbohydrates • Fats • proteins

  19. Adding up the ATP from Cellular Respiration • Remember up to 38 ATP/glucose • Glycolysis and citric acid cycle each contribute 2 ATP by direct synthesis • Remaining from “fall” of electrons in transport chain • Each pair dropped down from NADH = 3 ATP • Each pair dropped down from FADH2 = 2 ATP

  20. Fermentation: Anaerobic Harvest of Food Energy • Cells can work for short periods w/o O2 • Fermentation is anaerobic harvest of food energy

  21. Fermentation in Human Muscle Cells

  22. Fermentation in Microorganisms • Fermentation alone is able to sustain many microorganisms • The lactic acid produced by microbes is used to produce:

  23. Life Before and After Oxygen • Glycolysis used by ancient bacteria to make ATP when little oxygen available and before organelles evovled • Today glycolysis • Occurs in almost all organisms • Is a metabolic heirloom of the first stage in the breakdown of organic molecules
