Document Summary

Biol 112 - biology of the cell - lecture 28: Pyruvate processing and citric acid cycle: its inputs and output. Without oxygen, pyruvates produced by glycolysis go through fermentation. With oxygen, pyruvates produced by glycolysis go through pyruvate processing, citric acid cycle, and electron transport chain. In fermentation, oxygen is not present to be the final acceptor of oxygen atoms. Nadh generated by glycolysis must transfer electrons to something. Human skeletal muscle cells, red blood cells. Cells that can ferment but do not respire only make atp via glycolysis. Oxidation of pyruvate and generation of reduced electron carriers (nadh) Acetyl coa go through the citric acid cycle to produce oxygen.
