Document Summary

Glycolysis- breaking up of glucose into two pyruvic acid molecules. Krebs cycle- completes the breakdown by converting pyruvic acid to co2. Electron transport chain- redox reactions that are used to power atp synthase to make. The second step of cellular respiration: the krebs cycle extracts energy from sugar. Coenzyme a escorts the 2 c acetyl group to the krebs cycle. After glycolysis and the krebs cycle the cell has gained (per glucose molecule) Harvest the energy banked in nadh and fadh2. High energy electrons shuttled to an electron transport chain. The third step in cellular respiration: atp is built in the electron transport chain. The force of the flow of h+ ions fuels the attachment of free-floating phosphate groups to. Remember hydrogen atoms are made up of one proton (h+) and one electron. Nadh and fadh2 transfer their electrons to the electron transport chain.
