In cellular respiration
Hydrogen is oxidized and CO2 produced. Carbohydrates are oxidized to release energy also in this product oxygen is reduced
enzymes that carry out oxidation during cellular respiration are assisted by non protein helpers called
coenzymes, as glucose is oxidized the coenzymes NAD+ and FAD+receive hydrogen atoms H+ +e- and become NADH and FADH2
Glycolysis
which occurs in the cytoplasm outside the mitochondria is the breakdown of glucose to 2 molecules of pyruvate 2 ATP are gained and oxidation results in NADH which will be used later for more ATP
Preparatory (prep) reaction
takes place in the matrix of mitochondria. Pyruvate is broken down to a 2-carbon acetyl group carried by coenzyme A (CoA) oxidation of pryruvate results in not onlyNADH but also CO2
Citric acid cycle
also takes place in the mitochondria. As oxidation occurs, NADH and FADH2 result in more CO@ is released. The citric acid cycle is able to produce 2 ATP per glucose molecule
Electron Transport Chain
is a series of electron carriers in the cristae of mitochondria NADH and FADH2 give up electrons to the chain. Energy is released and captured as the electrons move from higher energy to a lower energy state. H2O is produced here
What is the net gain of ATP from glycolysis?
2 ATP are used to get started and 4 ATP are produced meaning a net gain of 2 ATP
If oxygen is present,
pyruvate the end product of glycolysis enters the mitochondria and undergoes further breakdown. if oxygen is not available pyruvate remains in the cytoplasm and undergoes reduction
Preparatory Reaction
Occurs in matrix of mitochondria
1. Pyruvate is oxidized and CO2 molecule is given off This part of the CO2 we breathe out
2 NAD) accepts a hydrogen atom, and NADH results
3. The product, C2 acetylgroup, is attached to coenzyme A (CoA) forming acetyl-Coa
therefore per glucose molecule, the total of 2CO2, 2NADH and 2acetyl-CoA
Electron Transport Chain
is a series of electron carriers in the cristae of mitochondria NADH and FADH2 give up electrons to the chain. Energy is released and captured as the electrons move from higher energy to a lower energy state. H2O is produced here
What is the net gain of ATP from glycolysis?
2 ATP are used to get started and 4 ATP are produced meaning a net gain of 2 ATP

3. The product, C2 acetylgroup, is attached to coenzyme A (CoA) forming acetyl-Coa
therefore per glucose molecule, the total of 2CO2, 2NADH and 2acetyl-CoA
Citric Acid Cycle
the C2 acetyl group carried by CoA joins with a C4 molecule and a C6 citrate molecule results the CoA returns to the preparatory reaction to be used again
Citric Acid Cycle continues
the acetyl group is oxidized, and the rest of the CO@ we beathe out per glucose molecule is released
both NAD+ and FAD accept hydrogen atoms, resulting in NADH and FADH2
Substrate level ATP is synthesis occurs and ATP results
Because the citric acid cycle turns twice for each original glucose, the outputs and inputs of the citric cycle per glucose are as follows:
inputs outputs
2 acetyl-Coa 4 CO2
6 NAD+ 6NADH
2FAD 2FADH2
2 ADP +P 2 ATP
Electron Transport Carrier
NADH and FADH2 deliever electrons to the chain--e- not H+ the high energy electrons enter the chain the low energy electrons leave the chain
Electron Transport Carrier
NADH delivers electrons enough energy has been captured by the time the electrons are received by the O2 to make 3 ATP and one water molecule
Electron Transport Carrier
FADH2 delivers electrons only 2 ATP molecules are formed and the cycle continues anew for both FAD and NAD+
The carriers of Electron transport chain
are located in the inner mitochondrial membrane
the electron carriers in molecular complex
use the energy released from oxidation to pump H+ from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space
The cristae of the mitochondria contain
an ATP synthase complex that allows H+ to return to the matrix this brings about a conformational chage which causes the eneyme ATP synthase to synthesize ATP from ADP+P

A Fatty acid with a chain of 18 carbons
can make three times the acetyl groups that glucose does
The complete break down of glycerol and fatty acids
result in many more ATP per fat molecule than does the breakdown of glucose
Instead of creating ATP
ATP can be used to to create amino acids synthesize protein produce glycerol and acetyl group to be used as fatty acids this is why you gain weight from eating carbohydrate rich foods
Fermentation
which is the anaerobic breakdown of glucose (without oxygen). results in the production of 2ATP per glucose and the production of lactate
Fermentation
is essential because ATP is still produced it provides a rapid burst of ATP
Oxygen deficit
is signified by the fact that we continue to breathe very heavily for a time . Recovery is complete when oxygen is present to completely breakdown glucose
Lactate
formed in the muscles is carried away to the liver where it is recovered to pyrovate. some is oxidized completely and the rest is converted back to glucose
Fermentation inputs and outputs

glocose 2 lactate or
2 alcohol
2ATP 2ADP
