Cellular respiration provides us
with the energy we use
Slow-twitch muscles have more mitochondria than fast-twitch
Cellular Respiration
All Living Things Require and Consume
Energy
• Ultimate source of
energy for all life on
earth is the sun
• We get our energy
from food
Aerobic respiration of glucose is the most
basic means for cells to acquire energy
C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) 6CO2(g)+ 6H2O(l)
This is a combustion reaction
Combustion is a kind of redox reaction
Respiration interacts with
photosynthesis in the recycling of
carbon
Respiration at the cellular level
necessitates our breathing
The more our cells respire, the
more oxygen we need
Although carbohydrates, fats, and proteins
are all consumed as fuel, it is helpful to
trace cellular respiration with glucose:
C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) 6CO2(g)+ 6H2O(l) +
Energy (ATP + heat)

The Stages of Cellular
Respiration: A Preview
• Cellular respiration has three stages:
– Glycolysis
– The citric acid cycle (a.k.a. the Krebs cycle)
– Oxidative phosphorylation (using the electron
transport chain)

Overview of respiration
• Glycolysis: Glucose is split, 2 pyruvates
are formed, a little ATP is gained (by
substrate-level phosporylation)
• The Citric Acid Cycle: Redox molecules
NAD+ and FAD are charged up, a little ATP
is gained
• Oxidative phosphorylation: Lots of ATP is
made by ATP synthase
Processes important to
respiration
• Substrate-level phosphorylation to form
ATP
• Recycling of the Redox molecules NAD+
and FAD to carry electrons to the etransport chain
• The electron transport chain, which helps
generate much ATP
Substrate-level phosphorylation
Making ATP by taking a phosphate from
something and sticking it onto an ADP
Recycling of NAD+
e
The transport chain
generates a proton gradient
Step 1: Glycolysis
In: 1 glucose, 2 NAD+
Out: 2 ATP (net), 2NADH,
2 pyruvate
Glycolysis converts glucose to
pyruvate
• Glycolysis (“splitting of sugar”) breaks down
glucose into two molecules of pyruvate
• Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and has two
major phases:
– Energy investment phase
– Energy payoff phase

Energetics of
Glycolysis
Concept 9.3: The citric acid
cycle completes the energyyielding oxidation of organic
molecules
• Before the citric acid cycle can begin, pyruvate
must be converted to acetyl CoA, which links
the cycle to glycolysis
Before the citric acid cycle,
pyruvate is fastened to
Co-Enzyme A
Step 2: Citric Acid cycle
In: Acetyl CoA, NAD+, FAD, ADP
Out: CO2, NADH, FADH, some
ATP
• In the citric acid cycle, electrons are ripped
from carbon onto the redox molecules
NAD+ and FAD
• All carbon is converted to CO2
• A little bit of ATP is generated
• The citric acid cycle, also called the Krebs
cycle, takes place within the mitochondrial
matrix
• The cycle oxidizes organic fuel derived from
pyruvate, generating one ATP, 3 NADH, and 1
FADH2 per turn
• The citric acid cycle has eight steps, each
catalyzed by a specific enzyme

Step 3: Oxidative
Phosphorylation
In which the electron transport
chain generates a proton gradient,
and ATP synthase makes tons of
ATP
Oxidative phosphorylation
• Electron-carrying redox molecules (NADH
and FADH2) transfer their electrons to the
e- transport chain
• The e- transport chain uses the electrons
to create a proton gradient across the
inner mitochondrial membrane
• ATP synthase uses the potential energy
in the proton gradient to convert much
ADP into ATP

• The energy stored in a H+ gradient across a

work

An Accounting of ATP Production
by Cellular Respiration
• During cellular respiration, most energy flows in
this sequence:
glucose NADH electron transport chain
proton-motive force ATP
• About 40% of the energy in a glucose molecule
is transferred to ATP during cellular respiration,
making about 38 ATP

During cellular respiration, NADH
A) is converted to NAD+ by an enzyme
called dehydrogenase.
B) is chemically converted into ATP.
C) is reduced to form NAD+.
D) delivers its electron load to the electron
transport chain.
E) None of the choices are correct.
Oxygen is the final e- resting
place in the chain
Human cells can do glycolysis
faster than human lungs can
take in oxygen
Q: What happens if there is not
enough oxygen?
A: It depends on what kind of
creature you are…
Without O2, yeast make alcohol
Humans make lactic acid
instead of ethanol
Lactic Acid in muscles creates a
burning sensation
• Overworked muscles
can become anoxic
• In low oxygen
environments,
pyruvate is converted
to lactate to
regenerate NAD+
• Lactic acid causes
great suffering

Fermentation and Cellular
Respiration Compared
• Both processes use glycolysis to oxidize
glucose and other organic fuels to pyruvate
• The processes have different final electron
acceptors: an organic molecule (such as
pyruvate) in fermentation and O2 in cellular
respiration
• Cellular respiration produces much more ATP

The Evolutionary Significance of
Glycolysis
• Glycolysis occurs in nearly all organisms
• Glycolysis probably evolved in ancient
prokaryotes before there was oxygen in the
atmosphere
Glycolysis and the citric acid
cycle connect to many other
metabolic pathways
• Gycolysis and the citric acid cycle are major
intersections to various catabolic and
anabolic pathways
Metabolism can build up, or
break down
