Document Summary

Biol 1201 lecture 10 cellular respiration concepts. Cellular respiration: breakdown of glucose to release energy and then capture the energy in atp. Glucose + o2 --> co2 + h2o + energy = release of energy --> atp. [clicker]: the synthesis of atp is endergonic (requires energy). How is the hydrogen ion gradient maintained: active transport of h+ powered by the flow of electrons along the etc (electron transport chain) Involves redox reactions: for every reduction = oxidation and vice versa. Reduction - addition of electron and h+; oxidation - removal of electron and. First law: energy can neither be created nor destroyed only converted from one form to another. Second: when converting energy from one form to another, the amount of useful energy decreases. Redox reactions: reduction: addition of electrons/hydrogen to a molecule (adds energy in reduced compounds) The reduction form has more energy than oxidation: oxidation: removal of electrons/hydrogens from a molecule (releases energy from reduced compounds)
