Cellular Respiration Flashcards
What is cellular respiration
Creates cells
Glucose + O2 = water and co2 + energy
Aerobic and anaerobic
Air. No air
Anaerobic
Occurs in cytoplasm without oxygen
Produces 2 pyruvate molecules and 2 ATP
Aerobic
Mitochondria and requires oxygen
Produces Carbon dioxide and water, and 36 total atp
Step 1 - Glycolysis
Anaerobic respiration
1 glucose = 2 pyruvate and 2 ATP
Occurs in the cytoplasm
No further steps if there is no oxygen
No oxygen = lactic acid
Step 2 - Citric Acid Cycle
Aerobic respiration
Occurs in mitochodria matrix
Produces 2 ATP
Step 3 - Electron Transport Chain
Aerobic Respiration
Produces 26-34 ATP
Occurs in the mitochondrial inner membrane
Produces carbon dioxide and water
Cv6 Hv12 Ov6 + 6Ov2
6COv2 + 6Hv2O
ATP
3 phosphates
Adenosine triphosphate
ADP
2 phosphates
Adenosine diphosphate
