Understanding Cellular Respiration: a Detailed Process Explanation

Learn how protons, electrons, and oxygen combine to form water in cellular respiration. Discover the impact of hydrogen build-up on NADH and FADH2 and its implications on respiration stages like glycolysis. Understand the conversion of pyruvate to lactic acid or ethanol in animals and plants. Dive deep into the energy trapped in lactate and ethanol. Explore the crucial role of NAD in these respiration processes.

  1. H H Pi Pi Pi A The protons are combined with the electrons and oxygen…. O

  2. H H Pi Pi Pi A ….to form a molecule of water O

  3. H H H H H H H H H H H H Pi Pi Pi A In the absence of oxygen, there is a build up of hydrogen atoms

  4. H+ H+ H H H+ H H H+ H H H H H H H+ H+ H+ H+ H H Pi Pi Pi A The NADH/H+ and FADH2 will not be reoxidised as they will no longer be able to release the Hydrogen they are carrying

  5. H H+ H H H+ H H H+ H H+ H H+ H H H H H+ H H H+ H+ H Pi Pi Pi A NAD The NADH/H+ and FADH2 will not be reoxidised as they will no longer be able to release the Hydrogen they are carrying

  6. H H+ H H H+ H H H+ H H+ H H+ H H H H H+ H H H+ H+ H Pi Pi Pi A NAD This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis.

  7. This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis.

  8. This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis.

  9. This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. The pyruvate accepts hydrogen atoms from the NADH/H+ directly in animals

  10. This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. The pyruvate accepts hydrogen atoms from the NADH/H+ directly in animals

  11. H H+ This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. NAD The pyruvate accepts hydrogen atoms from the NADH/H+ directly in animals

  14. H H This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. NAD The pyruvate accepts hydrogen atoms from the NADH/H+ directly in animals

  15. H H This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. NAD The pyruvate accepts hydrogen atoms from the NADH/H+ directly in animals and forms lactic acid.

  16. H H This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. NAD A considerable amount of energy is trapped in the lactic acid.

  17. This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. In plants the pyruvate is first decarboxylated to release CO2

  19. O C O This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. In plants the pyruvate is first decarboxylated to release CO2

  20. O C O This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. In plants the pyruvate is first decarboxylated to release CO2

  21. O C O This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. The 2C intermediate accepts the hydrogen atoms from NADH/H+ and forms ethanol

  22. O H H+ C O This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. NAD The 2C intermediate accepts the hydrogen atoms from NADH/H+ and forms ethanol

  23. O H H+ C O This means that respiration cannot proceed beyond the first stage – glycolysis. NAD The 2C intermediate accepts the hydrogen atoms from NADH/H+ and forms ethanol
