Document Summary

Photosynthesis: light energy is used to extract electrons from water, which combine with hydrogen to reduce carbon dioxide into carbohydrates. The further an electron is from an atom, the more energy it contains. To get glucose to ignite, we can use a flame to provide the high activation energy. Cellular respiration can be thought of as controlled combustion. In cellular respiration, the oxidation of food molecules occurs in the presence of a group of enzymes called dehydrogenases. Glycolysis is universal (found in all bae). It doesn"t depend on the presence of o2, and occurs in the cytosol of all cells using soluble enzymes. During glycolysis, atp is generated by the process of slp. Large pores in the outer membrane allow the pyruvate to simply diffuse through. The citric acid cycle consists of 8 enzyme catalyzed reaction. 7 are soluble enzymes located in the mitochondrial matrix, and 1 enzyme is bound to the matrix side of the inner mitochondrial membrane.
