  1. Enduring Understanding: Growth, reproduction and maintenance of the organization of living systems require free energy and matter Essential Knowledge 2.A.2: Organisms capture and store free energy for use in biological processes

  2. Cellular respiration in eukaryotes involves a series of coordinated enzyme-catalyzed reactions that harvest free energy from simple carbohydrates • What happens to pyruvate after glycolysis? • Pyruvate is transported from the cytoplasm to the mitochondrion via a transport protein. • Pyruvate’s carboxyl group (COO-), which is already fully oxidized, is removed as CO2 • The remaining 2 carbon fragment is oxidized, forming a 2 C compound called acetate and reducing NAD+ to NADH + H+ • Acetate joins with Coenzyme-A, which makes it very reactive, forming Acetyl Co-A

  4. Cellular respiration in eukaryotes involves a series of coordinated enzyme-catalyzed reactions that harvest free energy from simple carbohydrates • Where does the Krebs Cycle take place? • The matrix of the mitochondria • When Acetyl Co-A enters the Krebs Cycle, what does it join with? • It joins with OAA (oxaloacetate). The 2 carbons originally from Pyruvate (and glucose) join with the 4 carbons of OAA to form 6 carbon Citrate.

  5. Cellular respiration in eukaryotes involves a series of coordinated enzyme-catalyzed reactions that harvest free energy from simple carbohydrates • What happens in the Krebs cycle? • Through a series of enzyme catalyzed reactions the remaining 2 carbons from pyruvate (originally from glucose) are oxidized and expelled as CO2. 3 NAD+ are reduced to form 3 NADH + 3H+and 1 FAD is reduced to form 1 FADH2. Indirectly 1 ATP is formed. • How is ATP formed during the Krebs Cycle? • Substrate level phosphorylation

  8. Enduring Understanding 4.A: Interactions within biological systems lead to complex properties (side bar) • Essential Knowledge 4.A.2:The structure and function of subcellular components, and their interactions, provide essential cellular processes. • How do mitochondria specialize in energy capture and transformation? • Mitochondria have a double membrane that allows compartmentalization within the mitochondria and is important to its function • Matrix (within the inner membrane) • Intermembrane Space (between the inner & outer membranes) • The outer membrane is smooth, but the inner membrane is highly convoluted, forming folds called cristae • Cristae contain enzymes important to ATP production; cristae also increase the surface area for ATP production

  10. The electron transport chain captures free energy from electrons in a series of coupled reactions that establish an electrochemical gradient across membranes. • Where is the electron transport chain of cellular respiration? • The Cristae (inner member of mitochondria) • In prokaryotic organisms it is located in the plasma membrane

  11. The electron transport chain captures free energy from electrons in a series of coupled reactions that establish an electrochemical gradient across membranes. • What happens at the electron transport chain? • Electrons delivered by NADH and FADH2 are passed thru a series of electron acceptors as they move toward the terminal electron acceptor, oxygen. • What happens as electrons move through the electron transport chain? • The energy released by passage of electrons from one electron carrier to the next is used to pump H+ from the matrix into the intermembrane space. (In prokaryotes H+ is pumped outside the plasma membrane.) • This creates a gradient of H+ across the membrane called a proton-motive force.

  12. INTERMEMBRANE SPACE The electron transport chain captures free energy from electrons in a series of coupled reactions that establish an electrochemical gradient across membranes. H+ Stator • How does the proton gradient (H+) produce ATP? • The energy stored in the proton gradient is released as H+ move back across the cristae through H+ channels provided by ATP synthases- chemiosmosis Rotor Internal rod Cata- lytic knob ADP + ATP P i MITOCHONDRIAL MATRIX

The electron transport chain captures free energy from electrons in a series of coupled reactions that establish an electrochemical gradient across membranes. • Chemiosmosis couples the electron transport chain to ATP Synthesis… • Electron Transport Chain: Electron transport and pumping protons (H+), which create an H+ gradient across the membrane • Chemiosmosis – ATP synthesis powered by the flow of H+ back across the membrane
