Cellular Respiration The Mitochondrial Pathway Glycolysis A series of anaerobic reactions that take place in the cytoplasm The breakdown of glucose into 2 three carbon molecules called pyruvate (pyruvic acid) Generates 2 of the 36 ATP molecules Glycolysis diagram Aerobic Respiration Requires Oxygen Is more efficient than anaerobic respiration Krebs Cycle Also known as the Citric Acid Cycle Takes place within the matrix (Jell-O) of the Mitochondria Utilizes the pyruvate from glycolysis to make a coenzyme The coenzymes of the Krebs cycle produces 2 molecules of ATP and 4 molecules of Carbon dioxide Krebs Cycle Electron Transport Chain Takes place within the membrane of the Mitochondria Is series of reactions where electron carriers (NADH and FADH2) transfer energy to generate 32 ATP ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION Does not require oxygen Fermentation A series of anaerobic reactions that utilize the pyruvate from glycolysis and to form lactic acid or carbon dioxide and ethyl alcohol There are 2 types Lactic Acid Fermentation: takes place in the muscle cells resulting in the release of lactic acid Alcohol Fermentation: takes place in yeast and bacteria resulting in the release of carbon dioxide and ethyl alcohol Cellular Respiration Equation C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP
