Cellular Respiration Overview
Aerobic Respiration: The complete breakdown of glucose with oxygen resulting
in lots of ATP's, CO2, H20.
Phase 1: Glycolysis Reactions
Reactions take place in the cytoplasm of cells.
Reactants
Products
Glucose
4 ATP's
2 ATP's
2 NADH's
2 Pyruvic Acid molecules
Phase 2: The Kreb's Cycle Reactions. Gets rid of Pyruvic Acid.
Reactions take place in the fluid filled Matrix in a mitochondria.
Reactant
Pyruvic Acid
Products
Total for 2 Pyruvic Acid Molecules
4 NADH's
8 NADH's
1 FADH
2 FADH's
1 ATP
2 ATP'S
CO2
Phase 3: The Electron Transport System (ETS) Reactions. Gets rid of NADH & FADH
Reactions take place in the inner membrane Cristae of a mitochondria.
Reactants
Products
NADH
H 2O
FADH
ATP's
O2
**** 2 ATP/FADH
and 3 ATP/NADH
Aerobic Respiration totals for 1 Glucose molecule:
From Glycolysis and Krebs
10 NADH's ----ETS------> 30 ATP's
2 FADH's ----ETS------> 4 ATP's
ATP's from Glycolysis and Kreb's ---------> 6 ATP's
Total ATP production for one molecule of glucose: 40 ATP (gross)
Activiation energy needed for Glycolysis: -2 ATP
Grand Total/Glucose: 38 ATP
*Overall yield is probably around 36 ATP due to the active transport of Glycolysis' NADH
into the mitochondria.
Anaerobic Respiration: The incomplete breakdown of glucose WITHOUT
OXYGEN resulting in a few ATP's and other high energy
molecules. Two types of anaerobic respiration; Alcoholic
Fermentation (yeast cells) and Lactic Acid Fermentation
(higher animal muscle tissue during heavy activity).
Alcoholic Fermentation: yeast cells
Glycolysis Reactions + an additional step (in cytoplasm).

Lactic Acid Fermentation: your muscles cells can do this during heavy exertion.

2 Pyruvic Acid molecules

Lactic Acid (produces muscle fatigue and burn)
2 NADH's
In both types of anaerobic respiration, the net yield per glucose molecule is 2 ATP. This
is considerable less than aerobic respiration's yield (~ 38 ATP).
