Study Notes
Phases of Cellular Respiration
- Three main phases are glycolysis, the Krebs Cycle, and the electron transport chain.
Location of Processes
- Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm.
- The Krebs Cycle takes place in the mitochondrial matrix.
- The electron transport chain is located in the inner membrane of mitochondria.
ATP Production
- Glycolysis yields a net gain of 2 ATP.
- The Krebs Cycle also produces 2 ATP.
- The electron transport chain generates 34 ATP, making it the most productive phase.
Byproducts of Cellular Respiration
- Carbon dioxide is produced during the Krebs Cycle.
- Water is formed in the electron transport chain.
Substrates in Cellular Respiration
- Glucose serves as the substrate in glycolysis.
- Oxygen acts as a substrate in the electron transport chain.
NADH and FADH2
- Each NADH can produce about 3 ATP in the electron transport chain.
- Each FADH2 yields approximately 2 ATP during the process.
Enzyme Deficiency Impact
- Missing or defective enzymes at any step of cellular respiration will halt processes beyond that point.
Anaerobic Conditions
- In the absence of oxygen, pyruvic acid accepts high-energy electrons from NADH.
Fermentation Reactions
- Yeast fermentation reaction: Glucose converts to ethyl alcohol, carbon dioxide, 2 ATP, and heat.
- Lactic acid fermentation reaction: Glucose converts to lactic acid, 2 ATP, and heat.
