Document Summary

Cellular respiration is metabolic reactions that turns molecules (like glucose) into atp: c6h12o6+6o2 >6co2+6h2o. We"re going to need a fuel source, which will be glucose, and activated carrier molecules, which are atp, nadh, & fadh2: what all 3 of these activated carrier molecules have in common is that they have an adenine. Ribose nucleotide: in the case of atp the phosphate group has the energy, but for nadh & fadh2 we are moving electrons. Glucose becomes oxidized, and oxygen becomes reduced: the glucose breaks down into co2 while the oxygen gets reduced into water. For nad+ to become reduced it must gain two electrons at the same time. Atp is made 2 di erent ways during cellular respiration: substrate phosphorylation: when a phosphate is transferred from a molecule that already has a phosphate directly transfers it to adp to make atp.
