Presentation Transcript

  1. Cellular Respiration Overview • Living things get most of the energy they need from glucose. • Autrotrophs make glucose using photosynthesis • Heterotrophs get glucose from food they eat • Cellular Respiration • The process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen.

  2. Cellular Respiration Overview • Cellular Respiration Overall Equation 6O2 + C6H12O6 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy • Three Stages • Glycolysis • Kreb’s Cycle • Electron Transport Chain • The Main form of Energy produced = ATP

  3. Cellular Respiration: An Overview Mitochondrion Electrons carried in NADH Electrons carried in NADH and FADH2 Pyruvic acid Glucose Electron Transport Chain Krebs Cycle Glycolysis Mitochondrion Cytoplasm

  4. Glycolysis • Glyco = Glucose lysis = Breakdown • Occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell • Molecules of GLUCOSE are broken down into 2 molecules of Pyruvic Acid. • Cell must use (invest) 2 ATP • Produces Energy Carrier Molecules • 4 ATP • 2 NADH

  5. Glycolysis Glucose Pyruvic Acid Pyruvic Acid To the Electron Transport Chain

  6. The “Mighty” Mitochondria • The mitochondria is the organelle where the final stages of cellular respiration occurs. • Kreb’s Cycle • Electron Transport Chain • Cells that use a lot of energy have high numbers of mitochondria. • Example: Muscle cells in the heart!!

  7. Kreb’s Cycle • Aerobic Process = Only if oxygen is present!! • Occurs in the MATRIX of the mitochondria • Pyruvic Acid from Glycolysis enters to form • 1 ATP • NADH • FADH2 • CO2 (which is released when we exhale!!) • AKA….Citric Acid Cycle

  8. Electron Transport Chain • Energy carrier molecules produced during Glycolysis and the Kreb’s Cycle enter the ETC • Occurs in the folds of the Inner Membrane of the Mitochondria (Cristae) • The electrons are passed down a chain of proteins until they reach the final electron acceptor…..oxygen! • So this step is aerobic (requires oxygen) • The ETC produces 32 ATP and H2O

  9. ATP Synthase • Uses the flow of H+ to make ATP. • Works like an ion pump in reverse, or like a waterwheel under the flow of H+ “water”.

  10. Cellular Respiration Flowchart Section 9-2 Glucose(C6H1206) + Oxygen(02) Glycolysis KrebsCycle ElectronTransportChain Carbon Dioxide (CO2) + Water (H2O)

  11. DOING THE MATH: Glycolysis, in cytoplasm, no O2 4 ATP* Krebs Cycle, in matrix, no O2 2 ATP Electron transport chains, with O2 32 ATP TOTAL: 38 ATP (-2 ATP)* --------------- NET YIELD, 1 glucose: 36 net ATP (*minus 2 ATP used for activation energy in glycolysis)

  12. What happens ifNO OXYGENis available?? The Kreb’s Cycle and Electron Transport Chain can’t function!! These are anaerobic conditions!!

  13. Fermentation • The cell can use Fermentation instead!! • Occurs in the Cytoplasm • Just like glycolysis!! • Fermentation • A series of reactions that convert NADH (from glycolysis) back into NAD allowing glycolysis to keep producing a small amount of ATP

  14. 2 Types of Fermentation • Alcoholic Fermentation • Yeasts use this process to form ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide as waste products. • This causes bread dough to rise • This is how some alcoholic beverages are made Pyruvic Acid + NADH  alcohol + CO2 + NAD+

  15. Lactic Acid Fermentation • Occurs in bacteria (unicellular organisms) • This is how cheese, yogurt, and pickles are made. • Occurs in muscles during rapid exercise • When your body runs out of oxygen your muscle cells must produce some ATP using fermentation and glycolysis • Lactic Acid build-up causes muscle soreness or burning after intense activity. Pyruvic Acid + NADH  lactic acid + NAD+

  16. Fermentation Summary Fermentation: 2 Pyruvic Acid  ? or ? Glycolysis: Glucose  2 Pyruvic Acid

  17. Chemical Pathways Section 9-1 Glucose Krebs cycle Electrontransport Glycolysis Alcohol or Lactic Acid Fermentation (without oxygen)

  18. Strenuous Exercise • Lactic acid is produced by your muscle cells during rapid exercise when the body cannot supply enough O2 to tissues. • Without enough O2, the body is NOT able to produce all of the ATP that is required. • The buildup of lactic acid can cause painful burning in your muscles!

  19. Minimal ATP Production • In the absence of oxygen, anaerobic respiration only releases 2 ATP for each molecule of glucose broken down.

  20. Comparing ATP Production • First, your body breaks down glucose through aerobic respiration to produce 36 ATP per glucose molecule; however, this is a slow process. • When muscle cells cannot get enough O2 they break down glucose through lactic acid fermentation to produce 2 ATP per glucose… • Therefore, AEROBIC RESPIRATION is much more efficient in terms of ATP production – 36 ATP compared to 2 ATP!

  21. Aerobic Training • Ex: long runs, biking, swimming • Can increase the size and number of mitochondria in muscle cells • Can increase the delivery of O2 to muscles by improving the heart and lungs

  22. Anaerobic Training • Ex: sprints, strides, quick bursts of energy • Increase the glycogen levels in the muscles • Increase body’s tolerance to lactic acid
