What does cellular respiration do?
release energy that is used to create ATP
what reactions make up cellular respiration
catabolic reactions
The first stage of cellular respiration
Glycolysis
Where does glycolysis occur?
cytoplasm
Second stage of cellular respiration
Acetyl-CoA synthesis
Where does Acetyl- CoA synthesis occur?
mitochondrial matrix
Third stage of cellular respiration
Kreb’s cycle (aka citric acid cycle)
where does the krebs cycle occur?
mitochondrial matrix
what is the fourth and final stage of cellular respiration
electron transport chain (aka oxidative phosphorylation)
where does the electron transport chain occur?
inner mitochondrial membrane
How much ATP does cellular respiration produce
32
oxidation
loses electrons (OIL -> Oxidation Is Losing)
reduction
gains electrons (RIG -> Reduction is Gaining)
