|
1. GLYCOLYSIS |
- occurs in CYTOPLASM - can be AEROBIC OR ANAEROBIC - glucose --> pyruvate - uses coenzyme NAD as a H carrier (NAD accepts H and becomes REDUCED and carries H to a later stage of respiration - produces some ATP, pyruvate and reduced NAD |
|
|
2. LINK REACTION |
- occurs in MATRIX OF MITOCHONDRIA - AEROBIC ONLY - links GLYCOLYSIS to KREBS - pyruvate converted into acetyl coenzyme A - uses NAD and COENZYME A - coenzyme A carries 2C groups to next stage of respiration |
|
|
3. KREBS CYCLE |
- occurs in matrix of mitochondria - aerobic only - acetyl coenzyme A enters cycle and molecules are OXIDISED (H removed) - uses NAD and coenzyme A - produces lots of reduced NAD, a little ATP and CO2 |
|
|
4. OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION |
- occurs in CRISTAE (inner membrane) of mitochondria - aerobic only - ATP produced from ADP + Pi + energy, using oxygen - uses reduced NAD and oxygen - produces lots of ATP, NAD and metabolic water |
