How Cells Harvest Chemical Energy
Cellular respiration is the set of the metabolic reactions and
processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert
biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate
(ATP), and then release waste products
Breathing and Cell Respiration are related

Cellular Respiration uses oxygen and glucose to produce
Carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.

Reduction and Oxidation
O.I.L.R.I.G.
Oxidation is losing electrons (or hydrogens) from
an element or molecule
Reduction is gaining of electrons (or hydrogens)
by an element or molecule
Loss of hydrogen atoms
Energy
Glucose
Gain of hydrogen atoms
Glucose gives off energy and is oxidized
Reduction and Oxidation
OILRIG
Gain or loss of electrons is often in the form of hydrogen.
The hydrogen is then passed to a coenzyme such as NAD+
Oxidized
Reduced
Reduction and Oxidation
These co-enzymes are very important for cell
respiration because they transfer high-energy
electrons to electron transport systems (ETS).
Reduction and Oxidation
As the electrons move from carrier to carrier,
energy is released in small quantities.

Explain aerobic cellular
respiration, including the link
reaction, the Krebs cycle, the
electron transport chain
Transition Reaction/Pre-Krebs/Link Reaction:
Occurs in the Matrix
Each pyruvic acid molecule is broken down to form
CO2 and a two-carbon acetyl group, which enters the
Krebs cycle. An Oxidative Decarboxylation Reaction:
Pyruvic Acid

Krebs Cycle
Electron Transport System
Krebs Cycle - (also known as Citric Acid Cycle or Tricarboxylic
Acid Cycle) is a step wise cyclic process which is used to oxidize
the pyruvate formed during glycolysis into (CO2) and (H2O).
Where? In the Mitochondria
What? Uses Acetyl Co-A to generate ATP, NADH,
FADH2, and CO2.

Explain oxidative phosphorylation in
terms of chemiosmosis
• The ETCs basic’s function is to ease the fall of
electrons from food to oxygen, breaking a large
energy drop into series of small steps.
• Chemiosmosis is using H+ ion in the
intermembrane space to drive ATP, through the
use of an ATP synthase (enzyme).
• Collectively ETC and chemiosmosis drive
oxidative phosphorylation
Generation of ATP
Chemiosmosis
Cells use the energy
released by “falling”
electrons in the ETS to
pump H+ ions across a
membrane
Uses the enzyme ATP
synthase.
