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).
