    Study Notes

    Cellular Respiration

    • Glucose breakdown to pyruvic acid occurs during the Glycolysis phase.

    Location of Cellular Respiration

    • Aerobic cellular respiration takes place in the Mitochondria.

    ATP Formation

    • A total of 36-38 ATP molecules are formed during aerobic cellular respiration.

    Products of Cellular Respiration

    • Lactic acid is NOT a product of cellular respiration.

    Fate of CO2

    • The CO2 produced during cellular respiration is exhaled out of the body.

    Energy Carrying Molecule

    • ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the energy-carrying molecule in cellular respiration.

    ATP Energy Release

    • ATP releases energy when it is broken down to ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate).
