Cell Respiration
|
The process of breaking down glucose into energy.
|
|
|
Formula
|
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----> 6C02 + 6H2O + ATP
|
|
|
Organisms
|
All
|
|
|
Organelle
|
Mitochondria and Cytoplasm
|
|
|
Aerobic Respiration
|
Requires oxygen to take place.
|
|
|
Anaerobic Respiration
|
Doesn't require oxygen by releases much more toxic wastes and isn't nearly as effective.
|
|
|
Glycolysis
|
First stage of respiration, located in the cytoplasm, anaerobic, and produces two ATP.
|
|
|
Citric Acid Cycle
|
Second stage of respiration, located in the mitochondrion, aerobic, and produces two ATP.
|
|
|
Electron Transport Chain
|
Third and most effective stage of respiration, located in the mitochondrion, aeronbic, and produces 32 ATP.
|
|
|
Fermentation
|
Used when oxygen is scarce and respiration cannot be used effectively to produce ATP.
|
|
|
Lactic Acid Fermentation
|
Glycolysis ----> Lactic acid
Produces two ATP with use of bacteria |
|
|
Alcoholic Fermentation
|
Glycolysis ----> Ethyl Alcohol
Produces two ATP with use of bacteria and yeast. |
|
|
ATP Molecule
|
Energy storing molecule that gives cells the energy to carry out daily activities.
