  1. KEY CONCEPT The overall process of cellular respiration converts sugar into ATP using oxygen. Cellular respiration is an aerobic process (requires oxygen) with two main stages.

  2. mitochondrion animal cell Mitochondria- matrix (fluid) and cristae (inner folds) Aerobic stages take place in mitochondria.

  3. Glycolysis must take place first in the cytoplasm and it is an anaerobic process ( without oxygen) • two ATP molecules are used to split glucose • four ATP molecules are produced • two molecules of NADH produced • two molecules of pyruvate produced. The products of glycolysis enter cellular respiration when oxygen is available.

  4. In the mitochondria- • Pyruvate is broken down before the Krebs cycle. • carbon dioxide released • NADH produced • coenzyme A (CoA) bonds to two-carbon molecule

  5. The Krebs cycle produces energy-carrying molecules. • NADH and FADH2 are made • intermediate molecule withCoA enters Krebs cycle • citric acid(six-carbon molecule)is formed • citric acid is broken down,carbon dioxide is released,and NADH is made • five-carbon molecule is broken down, carbon dioxide is released, NADH and ATP are made • four-carbon molecule is rearranged

  6. The electron transport chain uses NADH and FADH2 to make ATP. • high-energy electrons enter electron transport chain • energy is used to transport hydrogen ions across the inner membrane • hydrogen ionsflow through achannel in themembrane

  7. The breakdown of one glucose molecule produces up to38 molecules of ATP. • ATP synthase produces ATP • oxygen picks up electrons and hydrogen ions • water is released as a waste product

  8. The equation for the overall process is: C6H12O6 + 6O2  6CO2 + 6H2O • The reactants in photosynthesis are the same as the products of cellular respiration.
