(4) Respiration Flashcards
Equation
C6H1206 + 602 -> 6C02 + 6H20 + energy & ATP
Types of respiration
Aerobic ; Req 02 produces C02, ATP & water
Anaerobic ; no 02. Produce lactate (animals) ethanol & c02 (plants) little ATP
Respiration
B/D of fatty acids/ food mol / glucose to prod ATP which releases energy
4 stages & where
Glycolysis - cytoplasm - NO 02 both an/a 2ATP
Link reaction - crossing of Mit membrane
Krebs - mit matrix
ETC - Christae of Mit
Glycolysis Stage 1/4
Glucose PHOSPHORYLATED : addition of Pi
2 x Pi Hydrolysis of 2 x ATP -> 2 x ADP + 2 x Pi
ATP raises energy level - and lowers following reactions AE
Glycolysis Stage 2/4
PHOSPHORYLATED glucose split into 2 x TP
Glycolysis stage 3/4
TP oxidised
H removed from each TP
H transferred to carrier NAD - reduced NAD formed
Glycolysis Stage 4/4
ATP production
2 x TP -> 2 x Pyruvate
Whilst, Pi & ADP combine to make ATP
Yield from glycolysis
2 Mol ATP
2 Mol reduced NAD
2 Mol Pyruvate
Link Reaction - Purpose
Crossing of Mit membrane
Pyruvate + NAD + coA -> AcetylCoA + reduced NAD + C02
Changes to Pyruvate - LR
Decarboxylated ; (1 x C02 removed per Pyruvate)
Dehydrogenated ; 1 x H removed -> transferred to NAD = Red NAD formed
Other changes
2C is formed ; combines with CoA to make AcetylCoA (2 Pyruvate so 2 AcetylCoA )
C02 from each (C) Pyruvate (2 C)
Yield of LR
X
Krebs Cycle ;
Matrix of Mit
AcetylCoA (2C) combine w/ (4C) -> 6C citrate
6C dehydrogenated & decarboxylated
ROLE; provide H for ETC & Energy for ATP
Krebs cycle
4C & 2C combine to 6C 6C: Citric acid loses C - 5C: Whilst, 2 x NAD + 2H = reduced NAD 5C; 4C -> & 2NAD + 2H = 2NADH & ADP + Pi -> ATP = substrate level phosphorylation FAD + H -> FADH NAD + H -> NADH & cycle repeats
