The document summarizes cellular respiration. It describes that glycolysis converts glucose to pyruvate and yields a small amount of ATP without oxygen. In aerobic respiration, pyruvate enters the mitochondria and is oxidized to acetyl-CoA. The Krebs cycle further oxidizes acetyl-CoA, producing electron carriers and CO2. The electron transport chain uses protons to power ATP synthase to generate more ATP through chemiosmosis. The structure of the mitochondria is adapted for these functions through cristae that provide surface area for electron transport and an intermembrane space to accumulate protons.
