CELLULAR
RESPIRATION
Sugar + O2  ATP + CO2 + H2O
Cellular Respiration uses oxygen and glucose to produce
Carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.
Glucose
Oxygen gas

Water
Energy
How efficient is cell respiration?
Energy released
from glucose
(as heat and light)
Energy released
from glucose
banked in ATP
Gasoline energy
converted to
movement
About
40%
25%
100%
Burning glucose
in an experiment
“Burning” glucose
in cellular respiration
Burning gasoline
in an auto engine
Reduction and Oxidation
OILRIG
Oxidation is losing electrons
Reduction is gaining electrons
Loss of hydrogen atoms
Energy
Glucose
Gain of hydrogen atoms
Glucose gives off energy as is 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+
Reduction and Oxidation
What are some common co-enzymes?
NAD+ and FAD
NAD+ + 2 H
FAD

+ 2H
Remember that H = 2
NADH

+
H+
FADH2
electrons
and
2H+
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.
Electron transport system
(ETS)
Generation of ATP
There are two ways to generate ATP
Chemiosmosis
Substrate-Level 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.

Where do you suppose these reactions take place?
Yeast produce carbon dioxide and ethanol
Muscle cells produce lactic acid
Only a few ATP are produced per glucose
