KA7 Pt2 Flashcards
Cellular respiration is a series of
Metabolic pathways that release energy
What is respiration
Catabolic process which converts chemical energy stored in glucose into chemical energy stored in ATP
Make what required energy
ATP from ADP + PI
Where does the energy come from
Breakdown of glucose during respiration
ATP breakdown to ADP + PI releases energy why
To be used in cellular process
ATP is used to transfer energy to cellular process which BEED energy for example
•contraction of muscle cell fibres
•DNA replication
•protein synthesis
•Active Transport
•contraction of muscle cell fibres
•DNA replication
•protein synthesis
•Active Transport
During respiration enzymes are used for Glucose breakdown
- Glycolysis
- Citric acid cycle
3 electron Transport
Glycolysis summary
•Breakdown if Glucose into 2 pyruvate
• occurred in cytoplasm
• O2 not required
• overall net energy gain is 2 ATP
Product of Pyrviate at this stages has stages within itself tho
