Document Summary

Energy flows into an ecosystem as sunlight and leaves as heat. Cellular respiration includes both aerobic and anaerobic respiration but is often used to refer to aerobic respiration helpful to trace cellular respiration with the sugar glucose. Although carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are all consumed as fuel, it is. Nadh passes the electrons to the electron transport chain. Glycolysis (breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate) The citric acid cycle (completes the breakdown of glucose) Oxidative phosphorylation (accounts for most of the atp synthesis: citric cycle known as krebs cycle, completes the break down of pyruvate to co2. 8 steps: each catalyzed by a specific enzyme, coa joins the cycle by combining with oxaloacetate, forming citrate, the next seven steps decompose the citrate back to oxaloacetate, forming citrate. Most cellular respiration requires o2 to produce atp. Without o2, the electron transport chain will cease to operate.
