AP Biology Cellular Respiration Overview Part 1 Process of Cellular Respiration Compare to Cellular Respiration? • BIG PICTURE FOR CELLULAR RESPIRATION: – 1. Break down a carbon-based molecule to create electron carriers. **Glycolysis and Krebs Cycle.** – 2. Use the electron carriers to set up a concentration gradient of H+ ions, so that they can be used to make ATP. **ETC** – Use oxygen as a final acceptor of the electrons used to make ATP. Oxygen is INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT to the process of cellular respiration. **ETC** Overview of Cellular Respiration • Cellular Respiration is a Three Step Process: – Step 1: Glycolysis : This is the breaking of Glucose into 2 molecules of Pyruvate. (All organisms can do this process as it occurs in the cytoplasm of a cell.) – Step 2: Kreb’s Cycle : This is all about making electron carriers due to the continued break down of Glucose. – Step 3: Electron Transport Chain : This is where the Free E of the electrons is used to help make ATP. • This is referred to as Oxidative Phosphorylation (makes 90% of ATP) because it will need oxygen to be present. • The whole process yields a maximum of 38 ATP/ 95% of time only 36 produced though. Light energy CO2 + H2O Photosynthesis in chloroplasts Organic +O molecules 2 Cellular respiration ATP in mitochondria powers most cellular work Heat energy Energy Coupling: The connection, using energy, between photosynthesis and cellular respiration. This process is, in its simplest form, a series of anabolic and catabolic reactions that work together to create organic molecules and break those molecules down to create energy.

The proteins that work together to move electrons down the chain are different (except for cytochrome C) but the process is nearly the same.
