    Study Notes

    1. Aerobic respiration of glucose has 4 stages: glycolysis, link reaction, Krebs cycle, and electron transport/chemiosmosis.
    2. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and splits glucose into pyruvate.
    3. The link reaction converts pyruvate into acetyl CoA which enters the Krebs cycle.
    4. Hydrogen atoms are transferred to NAD to produce reduced NAD in all three stages.
    5. NADH and FADH release their hydrogen atoms as protons and electrons in the final stage.
    6. Electrons pass through an electron transport chain and protons are used for ATP synthesis.
    7. The presence of oxygen is necessary for oxidative phosphorylation.
    8. Glycolysis can occur in the absence of oxygen in anaerobic respiration.
    9. Glycolysis yields 2 ATP and NADH which carries electrons to the electron transport chain.
    10. The Krebs cycle produces CO2, ATP, and reduced NAD and FAD.
