Cellular Respiration Chapter 9.3
Cellular Respiration • The process by which mitochondria break down food molecules to produce ATP is called cellular respiration. • There are three stages of cellular respiration: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain.
3 Stages to cellular respiration: • 1) Glycolysis: This stage is anaerobic (no oxygen). Occurs in the cytoplasm Glycolysis produces a net yield of 2 NADH, 2 ATP, and 2 pyruvate molecules. • Following glycolysis, the pyruvic acid molecules move into the mitochondria and goes through the next stage of cellular respiration
2) Citric acid cycle (Kreb’s cycle): • This cycle requires aerobic (oxygen) energy. • Net product is 2 ATP.
3) Electron transport chain: • The electron transport chain is in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. • During this stage 32 ATP molecules are formed.
Final tally of ATP in cellular respiration: • Glycolysis 2 ATP • Krebs Cycle 2 ATP • Electron transport chain 32 ATP 36 ATP
Anaerobic respiration • Certain cells in your body can produce energy without oxygen. Example: Muscle • This is called anaerobic respiration.
Anaerobic Respiration • Fermentation is the extraction of energy from pyruvate in the absence of oxygen. • 2 Types of fermentation: • 1) alcoholic fermentation- produces CO2 and ethyl alcohol. Example: making bread • 2) Latic acid fermentation- process of making energy when oxygen is scarce. • Only 2 ATP molecules are formed in fermentation.
