Introduction
How Cells Harvest Chemical Energy
 In eukaryotes, cellular respiration
– harvests energy from food,
– yields large amounts of ATP, and
– Uses ATP to drive cellular work.
 A similar process takes place in many prokaryotic
organisms.

CELLULAR RESPIRATION:
AEROBIC HARVESTING
OF ENERGY
 Life requires energy.
 In almost all ecosystems, energy ultimately comes
from the sun.
 In photosynthesis,
– some of the energy in sunlight is captured by
chloroplasts,
– atoms of carbon dioxide and water are rearranged, and
– glucose and oxygen are produced.

arrangement of electrons in chemical bonds in
organic molecules.

 When the carbon-hydrogen bonds of glucose are
broken, electrons are transferred to oxygen.
 Energy can be released from glucose by simply
burning it.
– Oxygen has a strong tendency to attract electrons.
 The energy is dissipated as heat and light and is
not available to living organisms.
– An electron loses potential energy when it “falls” to
oxygen.

 On the other hand, cellular respiration is the
controlled breakdown of organic molecules.
 The movement of electrons from one molecule to
another is an oxidation-reduction reaction, or
redox reaction. In a redox reaction,
 Energy is
– gradually released in small amounts,
– captured by a biological system, and
– stored in ATP.
– the loss of electrons from one substance is called
oxidation,
– the addition of electrons to another substance is called
reduction,
– a molecule is oxidized when it loses one or more
electrons, and
– reduced when it gains one or more electrons.

that can be divided into three stages.

 Two molecules of pyruvate are produced for each
molecule of glucose that enters glycolysis.
 Pyruvate does not enter the citric acid cycle, but
undergoes some chemical grooming in which
– the citric acid cycle and
– oxidative phosphorylation will occur.
– a carboxyl group is removed and given off as CO2,
– the two-carbon compound remaining is oxidized while a
molecule of NAD+ is reduced to NADH,
– coenzyme A joins with the two-carbon group to form
acetyl coenzyme A, abbreviated as acetyl CoA, and
– acetyl CoA enters the citric acid cycle.

 Oxidative phosphorylation
– involves electron transport and chemiosmosis and
 Electrons from NADH and FADH2 travel down the
electron transport chain to O2.
– requires an adequate supply of oxygen.
 Oxygen picks up H+ to form water.
 Energy released by these redox reactions is used
to pump H+ from the mitochondrial matrix into the
intermembrane space.
 In chemiosmosis, the H+ diffuses back across the
inner membrane through ATP synthase
complexes, driving the synthesis of ATP.

 Fermentation is a way of harvesting chemical energy
that does not require oxygen. Fermentation
 Your muscle cells and certain bacteria can oxidize
NADH through lactic acid fermentation, in which
– takes advantage of glycolysis,
– NADH is oxidized to NAD+ and
– produces two ATP molecules per glucose, and
– pyruvate is reduced to lactate.
– reduces NAD+ to NADH.
 The trick of fermentation is to provide an anaerobic
path for recycling NADH back to NAD+.

 Metabolic pathways are often regulated by
feedback inhibition in which an accumulation of
product suppresses the process that produces the
product.
1. Compare the processes and locations of cellular
respiration and photosynthesis.
2. Explain how breathing and cellular respiration are
related.
3. Provide the overall chemical equation for cellular
respiration.

released during cellular respiration.
9. Explain how rotenone, cyanide, carbon
monoxide, oligomycin, and uncouplers interrupt
critical events in cellular respiration.
6. Explain how redox reactions are used in cellular
respiration.
7. Describe the general roles of dehydrogenase,
