  1. Chapter 7: RespirationRespiration: The release of stored energy (sugar). Usually involves oxygen (the reason we breath is to release energy from our food).Aerobic vs Anaerobic: Aerobic means in the presence of oxygen.

  3. First Stage: Glycolysis BASICS: Glycolysis doesn’t require oxygen (anaerobic)! Glycolysis doesn’t occur in the mitochondria, so it can happen in prokaryotes (lacking organelles). Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm. Glycolysis begins with glucose and ends with two pyruvate molecules, yielding minimal energy gain.

  4. First Stage: Glycolysis • Two ATP are invested to rearrange glucose. • When glucose is split into two 3-carbon compounds, energy is released. • Released energy is stored in 4 ATP (through substrate-level phosphorylation, or direct transfer of phosphate group). • NAD+ picks up e- and H+ to become NADH

  7. Second Step: Krebs Cycle • Two pyruvate molecules enter the mitochondrion (enter into the inner compartment of mito). • Coenzyme-A strips a carbon, yielding CO2. • Acetyl-CoA enters Krebs Cycle/Citric Acid Cycle, yielding more CO2. • Final yield: ATP, NADH, FADH2.

NADH 3 NADH and FADH2 give up electrons and H+ to membrane-bound electron transport systems. acetyl-CoA NADH Krebs Cycle NADH ATP ATP 5 Oxygen accepts electrons, joins with H+ to form water. ATP 2 Krebs cycle and preparatory steps: NAD+ and FADH2 accept electrons and hydrogen stripped from the pyruvate. ATP forms. Carbon dioxide forms. ATP free oxygen ADP + Pi INNER COMPARTMENT 6 Following its gradients, H+ flows back into inner compartment, through ATP synthases. The flow drives ATP formation. Fig. 8.5b, p. 136

  10. Step 3: Electron Transfer Phosphorylation • NADH and FADH2 transfer e- and H+ to inner membrane of mitochondria, buiding up concentration of protons in intermembrane space. • When protons flow through ATP synthases, up to 34 ATP are produced. • Oxygen will accept extra hydrogens, resulting in water.

  14. Possible Pathways Glucose Glycolysis (no oxygen, for muscle) Lactate Fermentation (no oxygen for yeast, bacteria) Alcoholic Fermentation (if oxygen) Aerobic Respiration (in mitochondria)

  15. Alcoholic Fermentation (anaerobic) If no oxygen is available, only glycolysis can occur. In this case, pyruvate doesn’t enter the mitochondrion but rather is modified in the cytoplasm. The result is ethanol and carbon dioxide. Very little energy release as compared to aerobic respiration, so not an option for large, active animals.

  16. Lactic Acid Fermentation (anaerobic) If no oxygen is available, only glycolysis can occur. In this case, pyruvate doesn’t enter the mitochondrion but rather is modified in the cytoplasm. The result is lactate. Very little energy release as compared to aerobic respiration, so only used for short bursts of energy.
