  2. Cellular Energy • Most of the foods we eat contain energy stored in proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. • Before our cells can use this energy it must be transferred to ATP within the body’s cells. • Cells transfer the energy in organic compounds to ATP through a process called cellular respiration. Process cellular respiration

  3. Cellular Energy • Some ATP is made with oxygen. Some ATP is made without oxygen. • Each metabolic process has a different name. • Metabolic processes that require oxygen are called aerobic processes. • Metabolic processes that require NO oxygen are called anaerobic processes.

  4. Cellular Energy: Respiration • The energy-producing process in living things is called respiration. • Respiration is the release of energy by combining oxygen with digested food (glucose). • Carbon dioxide and water are also produced as byproducts. They are the waste products of respiration. • A simple formula to show respiration looks like this: Glucose + oxygen  carbon dioxide (waste) + water (waste) + energy

  5. Stages of Cellular Respiration • Cellular respiration occurs in three major stages • Glucose is converted to pyruvatedoubling the amount of ATP present. • Aerobic respiration occurs: Pyruvate goes through the Krebs Cycle. Energy originally stored in glucose-pyruvate is transferred to NADH & FADH2 compounds. • In an electron transfer chain, electrons and hydrogen atoms form H2O as a waste product. A phosphate group gets added to ADP and large amounts of ATP result from this.

  6. Stage 1: Breakdown of Glucose • The primary fuel for cellular respiration is glucose which is formed when carbohydrates such as starch and sucrose are broken down. • In the first stage of cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the cytoplasm during a process called glycolysis.

  7. Stage 1: Breakdown of Glucose • Glycolysis is an enzyme-assisted anaerobic (requires no oxygen) process that • breaks down one six carbon molecule of glucose • to two three-carbon pyruvate ions

  8. Stage 1: Breakdown of Glucose: Glycolysis Glycolysis can be summarized as follows: Stage 1: Breakdown of Glucose • 2 ATP molecules go through a series of reactions. • The result is 2 3-carbon pyruvate ions are produced plus 4 ATP molecules. • The amount of ATP is doubled from 2 to 4, a net gain of 2 ATP Detail of steps of chemical reaction glycolysis

  9. Stage 1: Breakdown of Glucose: Glycolysis Summary: Stage 1 • Glycolysisuses two ATP molecules • but produces four ATP molecules in return. • Thus, we gain two ATP moleculesfor a gain ratio of 2 to 1.

  10. Stage 1: Breakdown of Glucose: Glycolysis • Glycolysis is followed by another set of reactions that uses the energy temporarily stored in NADH to make more ATP. • This next reaction is called the Krebs Cycle or Citric Acid Cycle.

  11. Stage 2: Production of ATP Stage 2: Krebs Cycle • In stage 2, “when oxygen is present”, the pyruvate ions enter mitochondria and go through a series of chemical reactions. • The result of this reaction is the creation of one molecule of CO2 (carbon dioxide as a waste product) and one molecule of the compound Acetyl-CoA. • This Acetyl-CoA compound than goes through a series of reactions called the Krebs Cycle.

  12. Stage 2: Production of ATP: Krebs Cycle Summary: Stage 2 • After the Krebs Cycle, NADH and FADH2 now contain much of the energy that was previously stored in glucose and pyruvate. • When the Krebs Cycle is completed, the four-carbon compound that began the cycle has been recycled, and acetyl-CoA can enter the cycle again.

  13. Stage 3: Electron Transfer Chain Summary: Stage 3 • In aerobic respiration, electrons donated by NADH and FADH2 pass through an electron transport chain. • In this electron transfer chain, hydrogen ions get created. • At the end of the chain, spent electrons and hydrogen ions combine with oxygen, forming water molecules (H2O) as a waste product. • Hydrogen ions diffuse back into the inner compartment through a carrier protein that adds a phosphate group to ADP, making ATP. • Up to 34 more ATP molecules are produced at this point by this transport chain.

  15. Production of ATP: Summary • The total amount of ATP that a cell is able to harvest from each glucose molecule that enters glycolysis depends on the presence or absence of oxygen. • Cells use energy most efficiently when oxygen is present. • In the first stage of cellular respiration, glucose is broken down to pyruvate during glycolysis. Glycolysis is an anaerobic process (no oxygen required), and it results in a gain of two ATP molecules. • In the second stage of cellular respiration, the pyruvate passes through either aerobic respiration (requires oxygen) or fermentation. When oxygen is not present, fermentation occurs instead.

  16. Production of ATP: Summary • Most of a cell’s ATP is made during aerobic respiration. (requiring oxygen) • For each molecule of glucose that is broken down, as many as two ATP molecules are made directly during the Krebs cycle, • and up to 34 ATP molecules are produced later by the electron transport chain.
