Mitochondria
Calorie
Amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of water 1°C
Glycolysis
The breakdown of glucose by enzymes releasing energy and pyruvic acid
Cellular respiration
Releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules
Fermentation
Releases energy from food molecules by producing ATP in the absence of oxygen
Anaerobic
Fermentation that does not require oxygen
Aerobic
Fermentation that does require oxygen
Krebs cycle
Pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in a series of energy extracting reactions
Electron transport chain
Uses the high-energy electrons from the Krebs cycle to convert ADP into ATP
