Document Summary

The difference in energy will drive the atp. Nad exists in oxidized form, nad+ and a reduced form, nadh + h+ Nad + +2h nadh + h+ This is the redox reaction, and requires energy input. The h bond has a lower energy level than the ch bonds that were used to break up the. Drives a proton gradient which drives the production of atp. Change in free energy of atp to adp is approx -12 kcal/mol. Oxidize glucose by breaking down the ch bonds to create nicotinamide (reduced form) H2 + 1/2o2 explosive (remember balloons in chemistry) Each step from getting glucose into the cell to generating water, co2 and atp. Potential energy in glucose is contained in the reduced hydrocarbon bonds. In order to do this, glucose must be oxidized to co2 and water. The transport of glucose into the cell using glucose transporters. Glycolysis splits glucose into two pyruvate molecules.
