Q

Cellular Respiration

A

chemical process that releases energy from organic compounds (food), gradually converting it into energy that is stored in ATP molecules

25
Relationship between cellular respiration and photosynthesis
C.R. : 6O2 + C6H12O6 \/ /\ Photos. : 6CO2 + 6H2O
26
Photosynthesis (difference (2))
- Takes place in a chloroplast - Light energy from the sun changes to chemical energy in glucose
27
Cellular respiration (difference (2))
- Takes place in mitochondria - Chemical energy in glucose changes to chemical energy in ATP
28
1st pathway --> _______(releases only small amount of energy)
glycolysis (2 net ATP)
29
(Glycolysis) If oxygen is present
It will lead to 2 other pathways that release a lot of energy Kerbs Cycle & Electron Transport Chain
30
(Glycolysis) If oxygen is absent
2 other pathways Alcoholic Fermentation or Lactic Acid Fermentation
31
All three combined make up cellular respiration
Glycolysis + Krebs Cycle + Electron Transport Chain
32
ATP
Adenosine Triphosphate (Main energy currency of cells)
32
ATP
Adenosine Triphosphate (Main energy currency of cells)
33
ADP AMP
Adenosine Diphosphate Adenosine Monophosphate
34
ATP + H2O <-->
ADP + Pi + Energy
35
NAD+
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (Abundant cofactor that participates in multiple aspects of cellular metabolism)
36
NAD+ vs NADP
NAD+ : Involved in cellular respiration/ anabolic NADP : Involved in photosynthesis/ catabolic
37
FAD+
- Flavin adenine dinucleotide - Riboflavin - Donate electrons to electron transport chain
38
GTP
- Guanosine triphosphate - Used to carry energy - Signaling molecules
39
Glycolysis Process
10 reactions Converts glucose to pyruvate
40
Glycolysis - Produce : Consumes : Net Yield :
Produces: 4 ATP and 2 NADH Consumes: 2 ATP Net Yield: 2 ATP and 2 NADH
41
Glycolysis (alone) does not require
Oxygen
42
Glycolysis (stages)
*Glucose (+ATP) Glucose-6-phosphate (6 Carbon) *2( Glyceraldehyde 3- phosphate (3 Carbon)) *Pyruvate
43
To much ATP from glycolysis can cause (problems)
1) the cell's available NAD+ molecules become filled up with electrons 2) glycolysis shuts down, cannot proceed without available NAD+ molecules 3) ATP production stops
44
** -ose ***-ase
**(sugar) ***(enzymes)
45
End of glycolysis --->
90% of chemical energy from glucose still unused (locked in pyruvic acid)
46
Krebs and Electron Transport require
Oxygen Aerobic Processes
47
2nd Stage of Cellular Respiration British biochemist 1937 1st compound formed is Citric Acid
The Kerbs Cycle
48
2 Turns & 2 Pyruvic Acid (from glycolysis) yield
10 NADH (2 from glycolysis) (2 from glycolysis) 2 FADH2 4 ATP (2 from glycolysis) Then cycle starts anew
49
**isomerization
Changes form/structure
50
When carbon comes out forms CO2
NAD+ comes and forms NADH
51
*NADH Dehydrogenase
removing hydrogen enzyme
52
Electron Transport Chain is embedded
In mitochondrial inner membrane
53
Electron Transport Chain (FADH & NADH)
Energy is used to pump protons (H+) across the membrane from the matrix to the inner membrane space
54
ATP synthase is a membrane-bound enzyme that uses
the energy of the proton gradient to synthesis ATP from ADP + Pi
55
Acetyl-CoA added to
4 carbon compound = Citric Acid (6-C)
56
NADH + H+ and FADH2 (from glycolysis and Krebs cycle)
deliver hydrogen atoms
57
Released energy harnessed
ATP by oxidative phosphorylation
58
1 NADH --> 1 FADH2 -->
3 ATP 2 ATP
