Document Summary

Is a catabolic pathway when oxygen is consumed as a reactant along with the organic fuel. In cellular respiration, sugars are broken down and energy is released in the form of atp. Cellular respiration can be broken down into three main parts: glycolysis, krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. Is the splitting of glucose into pyruvate. In glycolysis, glucose (6 carbons) are transferred into 2 pyruvates (3 carbons each). Then, the 2 pyruvates are transferred to four acetyl coa (2 carbons each) and 2 carbon dioxide molecules are released. From there, four carbon dioxide molecules are released. Is a chemical cycle involving eight steps that completes the metabolic breakdown of glucose molecules to carbon dioxide. Is a sequence of electron carrier molecules that shuttle electrons during the redox reactions that release energy used to make atp. Aerobic respiration produces the high energy molecules nadh and atp.
