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
Q

Relationship between cellular respiration and photosynthesis

A

C.R. : 6O2 + C6H12O6
\/
/\
Photos. : 6CO2 + 6H2O

26
Q

Photosynthesis (difference (2))

A
  • Takes place in a chloroplast
  • Light energy from the sun changes to chemical energy in glucose
27
Q

Cellular respiration (difference (2))

A
  • Takes place in mitochondria
  • Chemical energy in glucose changes to chemical energy in ATP
28
Q

1st pathway –> _______(releases only small amount of energy)

A

glycolysis
(2 net ATP)

29
Q

(Glycolysis) If oxygen is present

A

It will lead to 2 other pathways that release a lot of energy
Kerbs Cycle & Electron Transport Chain

30
Q

(Glycolysis) If oxygen is absent

A

2 other pathways
Alcoholic Fermentation or Lactic Acid Fermentation

31
Q

All three combined make up cellular respiration

A

Glycolysis + Krebs Cycle + Electron Transport Chain

32
Q
