CELLULAR RESPIRATION
Sugar + O2 ATP + CO2 + H2O
Breathing and Cell Respiration are related
Muscles get oxygen from breathing and sugar from food to produce energy during cellular respiration.
Is a series of reactions where fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, mostly glucose, are broken down to make CO2, water, and energy.
Glucose Oxygen gas Carbon dioxide
Water Energy
recall that reactions have two parts› reactants (the ingredients needed for the
reaction to happen)› products (the molecules produced by the
reaction) they are separated by an arrow that
points towards the products
Glucose Oxygen gas Carbon dioxide
Water Energy
Burning glucose in an experiment
Energy released from glucose
(as heat and light)
100%
Energy released from glucose
banked in ATP
“Burning” glucosein cellular respiration
About 40%
Gasoline energy converted to movement
Burning gasolinein an auto engine
25%
How efficient is cell respiration?
energy released fromglucose as heat and light = 100% if you burn glucose
energy released fromglucose stored in ATP = 40% burned during cellular respiration
gas energy converted to movement 25% if burned in an auto engine
These reactions proceed the same way in plants and animals. Process is called cellular respiration
Overall Reaction:› C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
Transformation of chemical energy in food into chemical energy cells can use: ATP
Most of the energy from cell respiration is converted into ATP
ATP is a substance that powers most cell activities.
Get energy by breaking the bond between the last 2 phosphates of ATP
An enzyme is needed to break the bond.› ATPase› This makes ATP into ADP (triphosphate into
diphosphate = took away one phosphate atom)
To remake ATP, another enzyme is used › ATP synthetase
Breakdown of glucose begins in the cytoplasm outside the mitochondria
smaller molecules enter the liquid matrix inside the mitochondria for further breakdown.
locate the matrix in the next slide
The matrix where 3-carbon pieces, called pyruvate, (that came from carbohydrates) are broken down into CO2 and water
The cristae is where ATP is made
Glycolysis› Series of reactions which break the 6-
carbon glucose molecule down into two 3-carbon molecules called pyruvate
› Process is an ancient one-all organisms from simple bacteria to humans perform it the same way
› Yields 2 ATP molecules for every one glucose molecule broken down
› Yields 2 NADH (enzyme) per glucose molecule
Cellular RespirationStage One: Breakdown of Glucose
• Glycolysis Glucose is broken down into pyruvate during glycolysis, making some ATP.• happens in the cytoplasm outside the mitochondrion.• pyruvate can go one of two ways: aerobic or anaerobic respiration
At this point, life diverges into two forms and two pathways› Anaerobic cellular respiration (aka
fermentation)› Aerobic cellular respiration
› We’ll look at anaerobic respiration first› also called fermentation
Some organisms thrive in environments with little or no oxygen› Marshes, bogs, gut of animals, sewage treatment ponds
No oxygen used = ‘an’aerobic Results in no more ATP, final steps in these
pathways serve ONLY to regenerate NAD+ so it can return to pick up more electrons and hydrogens in glycolysis.
End products such as ethanol and CO2 (single cell fungi (yeast) in beer/bread) or lactic acid (muscle cells)
Fermentation in the Absence of Oxygen•Fermentation (aka anaerobic respiration) When oxygen is not present, fermentation (used in making alcohol) follows glycolysis, regenerating NAD+ needed for glycolysis to continue.•Lactic Acid Fermentation In lactic acid fermentation, pyruvate is converted to lactic acid which is what makes your muscles burn during exercise.
Oxygen required=aerobic 2 more sets of reactions which occur in
a specialized structure within the cell called the mitochondria› 1. Kreb’s Cycle› 2. Electron Transport Chain
