Document Summary

C6h12o6 + 6 o2 6 co2 + 6 h2o + energy (atp + heat) In oxidation, a substance loses electrons, or is oxidized. Oxidation of organic fuel molecules during cellular respiration: during cellular respiration, the fuel (such as glucose) is oxidized, and o2 is reduced: Stepwise energy harvest via nad+ and the electron transport chain. The stages of cellular respiration: cellular respiration has three stages: Glycolysis (breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate) The citric acid cycle (completes the breakdown of glucose) Glycolysis harvests chemical energy by oxidizing glucose to pyruvate: gl(cid:455)(cid:272)ol(cid:455)sis (cid:894)(cid:862)splitti(cid:374)g of sugar(cid:863)(cid:895) (cid:271)reaks do(cid:449)(cid:374) glu(cid:272)ose i(cid:374)to t(cid:449)o (cid:373)ole(cid:272)ules of p(cid:455)ru(cid:448)ate, glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and has two major phases: The citric acid cycle completes the energy-yielding oxidation of organic molecules. Fermentation and anaerobic respiration enable cells to produce atp without the use of oxygen: most cellular respiration requires o2 to produce atp, glycolysis can produce atp with or without o2 (in aerobic or anaerobic conditions)
