Transcript
Energy for the body
• Trapped in chemical bonds of fats,
proteins, and carbs (potential)
• liberate energy
– break bonds
– release energy, CO2 and H20
– Energy is transferred to ATP for use in the
body
Glycolysis
•
•
•
•
Splitting sugar (glucose)
Used by all organisms
Occurs in cytoplasm
Phosphorylation
– Adding a phosphate to a substance
• NAD+
– Electron acceptor (carrier)
• Used in electron transport chain for energy
– nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide

What happens to pyruvate
Pyruvate
• Aerobic - presence of oxygen
– enters the Krebs cycle (mitochondrion)
• tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle
• Anaerobic - no oxygen
– fermentation pathway
– pyruvate forms lactic acid
– Lactic acid is transported to liver to be
converted
