Document Summary

Glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water + energy (atp + heat) Direct burning of sugar: all free energy is released none is stored. Stepwise oxidation of sugar: small activation energies overcome by body temperature. Substrate level phosphorylation: involves kinases, phosphate comes from a substrate and gets added to adp to make atp, still a kinase because it is phosphorylating something, opposite kinases. Oxidative phosphorylation: electron transport chain, main source of energy. Does not require oxygen, and occurs in the cytosol. Glucose (6 carbons) oxidized into 2 molecules of pyruvate (3 carbons each). Electrons removed are delivered to nad+ producing nadh. Each glucose molecule produces: 2 atp, 2 nadh, 2 pyruvate.
