Cellular respiration
Cellular Respiration
 When we eat, we get energy (glucose and
other sugars)
 Food energy is broken down into usable
energy
 Energy used to bond phosphate
groups to ADP to make ATP
Cellular Respiration
 What is cell respiration???
 Respiration: the process of breaking down
food molecules into usable energy
 THE GOAL:
 Create ATP for cells to use
 Free up electrons—have high energy

Cellular Respiration
Cellular Respiration
 Types of cell respiration
 Aerobic Processes:
 REQUIRE oxygen to take place
 A lot of energy available (efficient)
 Anaerobic Processes:
 DO NOT require oxygen to take place
 Get energy quickly (inefficient)
Glycolysis
 Involves breaking down 6-carbon sugars
 Break sugars into pyruvic acid molecules
 3-Carbon molecules
 This process is ANAEROBIC
 No oxygen necessary
 Occurs in the cytoplasm of cells
Glycolysis
 You will need to know this…
Glycolysis
Just Kidding… 
Glycolysis
 Glycolysis also creates hydrogen ions
and free electrons
 The whole point of respiration = high energy
 H + ions bond with NAD+ to form
NADH + H +
 NADH carries electrons and H + ions
 This process uses 2ATP molecules and
creates 4 ATP molecules
Glycolysis
 TOTAL ATP PRODUCTION:
 Glycolysis Step 1 uses 2 ATP molecules
 Glycolysis Step 2 converts 4 ADP molecules
into 4 ATP molecules
 Net ATP production = 2 ATP for every
glucose molecule
Glycolysis
Glycolysis
 Oxygen is our friend…
 When oxygen is present,
aerobic respiration occurs
 Happens in the mitochondria
Glycolysis
 Breaking down Pyruvic Acid…
 Occurs in the mitochondria
 Pyruvic Acid = 3-carbon compound
 Broken down into…
 2-Carbon compound—acetic acid
 Carbon Dioxide
Glycolysis
 Intermediate Step in Glycolysis
 2-Carbon Compound—Acetic Acid
 Combined with coenzyme A (CoA)
 Forms compound called acetyl-CoA
 This is only an intermediate step—have to
move pyruvic acid into Krebs Cycle
Glycolysis
Glycolysis =
2 ATP
Citric Acid (Krebs) Cycle
 Produces more ATP and releases more
electrons
 Electrons picked up by NAD + and FAD
 Organic carrier molecules
 Occurs inside mitochondria
 Mitochondrial Matrix
Citric Acid (Krebs) Cycle
 Acetyl CoA combines with a 4-carbon
molecule to form a 6-carbon molecule
 Citric Acid
 Citric Acid broken down into a 5-carbon
compound
 NAD + removes electrons (NADH + H +)
 CO2 released
Citric Acid (Krebs) Cycle
 5-carbon compound broken down into a
4-carbon compound
 ATP created
 NAD + removes electrons (NADH + H +)
 CO2 released
 4-carbon compound (oxaloacetic acid) is
created
 Used to bond with acetyl- CoA to restart cycle
Citric Acid (Krebs) Cycle
Citric Acid Cycle =
2 ATP
Cellular respiration
Electron Transport Chain
 What is the ETC???
 A series of molecules along which electrons
are transferred, releasing energy
 Occurs in the mitochondria—
wall of mitochondria
 Aerobic process
 Oxygen is involved
 Acts as the electron acceptor
Electron Transport Chain
 As the electrons are passed between
carrier proteins, energy is released
 ATP is created
 Electrons are given up by the carrier
molecules
 NADH and FADH2 ------- NAD + and FAD
Electron Transport Chain
Electron Transport Chain
 As the electrons (H + ions) travel down
the chain, they bond with oxygen
 2 H + + 1 O = water (H2O)
 Electron acceptor
 Carbon is given off as carbon dioxide
Electron Transport Chain
Glycolysis
ETC =
34 ATP
Electron Transport Chain
 A problem exists if there is no oxygen
 Anaerobic process
 When oxygen is used up, electrons cannot
be removed
 Traffic jam in the mitochondria
 KEY POINT —Electron Transport Chain
cannot run without oxygen
Anaerobic Respiration
 If no oxygen present after glycolysis,
pyruvic acid can still be broken down
 Fermentation
2 ATP made during fermentation
 Uses electrons carried by NADH + H +
so that NAD+ can regenerate for
glycolysis
Anaerobic Respiration
 Two types of fermentation
 Lactic Acid Fermentation
 Alcoholic Fermentation
Glucose
2 Pyruvic
Acid
2 Lactic
Acid
Glucose
2 Pyruvic
Acid
2 Ethanol
+ 2 CO2
Anaerobic Respiration
 Lactic Acid Fermentation
NADH produce during glycolysis transfers H
atoms to pyruvate reducing it to lactate.
 Muscle fatigue
 When your muscle cells require more energy
than can be produced
 Lack of oxygen
 Lactic acid build up = muscle fatigue
 When oxygen is present, lactic acid breaks down
Anaerobic Respiration
Anaerobic Respiration
 Alcohol Fermentation
 Occurs in bacteria, plants and most animals
 Can you think of a bacteria that is used for
fermentation???
 Pyruvic Acid is converted into ethanol and
carbon dioxide
 Dacrboxylate pyruvate , releasing CO2 and
forming 2-C compound called
acetaldehyde.
 NADH produced during glycolysis transfers
hydrogen atoms to acetaldehyde, reducing
it to ethyl alcohol.
 Basis for the production of beer, wine, and
other alcoholic beverages.
Electron Transport chain
 Occurs in the inner membrane of the
mitochondrion.
 Energized electrons are carried by NADH
and FADH2 to the top of the chain.
 The electrons are passed from protein to
protein within the membrane, slowly
releasing their energy in steps. Some of
that energy is used directly to form ATP.
