Cellular Respiration

Can you answer these questions?​

What is consumed in cellular respiration?

What is produced in cellular respiration?

Note:

Reactants= one C₆H₁₂O₆ and six O₂

Products= six CO₂ and six H₂O and ATP energy

• Look at page 92, Figure 6.5 A

• The equation shows that glucose loses H's

• The equation shows that oxygen gains H's

• We refer to H's in regard to electrons

• This is a Redox Reaction

We say Leo the lion goes Ger

Lose electrons = oxidation

Gain electrons = reduction

Look at Figure 6.5B on page 92

​

NAD is what we call an "electron carrier"

​

We focus on this molecule throughout the process of cellular respiration

• Glycolysis

• Pyruvate Oxidation

• Kreb's Cycle (citric acid cycle)

• Oxidative Phosphoryllation (e- transport chain)

• Glycolysis

• Citric Acid Cycle

• Oxidative Phosphorulation

• Be able to explain glycolysis
