  1. Cellular Respiration 7.4 Anaerobic Respiration

  2. Anaerobic Respiration • Recall anaerobic respiration occurs in the ABSENCE of O2 • Two methods- alcohol fermentation (plants)- lactic acid fermentation (animals) • Both methods begin with GLYCOLYSIS

  3. Alcohol Fermentation • Starts with glycolysis • Glucose is metabolized to pyruvate • A net of 2 ATP is made • During alcoholic fermentation • Pyruvateis reduced to form ethanol • Carbon dioxide is released • NAD+ is recycled so glycolysis can continue • Yeast do this • Leavened bread • Sparkling wine

  4. Lactic Acid Fermentation • Starts with glycolysis • Glucose is metabolized to pyruvate • Pyruvate is reduced to form lactic acid • NADH transfers H+ ions to pyruvate, regenerating NAD+ • A net of 2 ATP is made • No carbon dioxide is released • Muscle cells have the enzymes to do this, but brain cells do not • Muscle cells can survive brief periods of oxygen deprivation, but brain cells cannot • Lactic acid “burn” in muscles

  5. Maximum Oxygen Uptake • Aerobic Fitness: measure of the ability of the heart, lungs, and bloodstream to supply O2 to the cells of the body during physical activity • VO2 max • A maximum rate at which an individual can consume O2 during maximal exertion • Peak aerobic power • milliliters per kilogram per minute(ml/kg/min)

  6. Exercise and VO2 max • Moving from rest to exercise ↑ energy requirements • Metabolism increases in direct proportion to rate of work • As demand for energy increases so does oxygen consumption (remember the role of oxidation to produce ATP to do work) • VO2 eventually peaks = VO2 max • VO2 may remain constant at max or drop slightly even through work intensity continues to increase • Average VO2 max is 35mL/kg/min • Top athletes’ VO2 max is 70 mL/kg/min

  7. Supplements and Toxins • Creatine phosphate • donates its high energy phosphate to the production of ATP Creatine phosphate + ADP ↔ creatine + ATP • increase in diet may help to store creatine phosphate in muscle cells (creating a reservoir of phosphate ready for ATP production) • potentially also acts as a buffer in muscle cells against lactic acid

  8. Carbon monoxide (CO) • combines with hemoglobin preventing O2 from binding with red blood cells • affinity between hemoglobin and CO is about 230 times stronger than the affinity between hemoglobin and O2 • hemoglobin will bond with CO before it will with O2 • No oxgyen available means the ETC terminates • Low ATP production results in cell death

  9. Cyanide and Hydrogen Sulfide • inhibit oxygen consumption by mitochondria • stopping cellular respiration
