Document Summary
Cellular respiration occurs in four stages: stage 1. Glycolysis: the process of breaking down glucose to make pyruvate. Fatty acids, or amino acids, are partially broken down and a modest amount of energy is released. When the fuel molecules are partially broken down, they produce. Atp and electron carriers: electron carriers are molecules that store and transfer energy in the form of high-energy or excited electrons, stage 2. Pyruvate, from glycolysis, is then converted to another molecule called. During this stage, acetyl-coa is broken down and more carbon dioxide is released: stage 3. Citric acid cycle: acetyl-coa is broken down, and even more carbon dioxide is released. When the fuel molecules are fully broken down, they produce more. Oxidative phosphorylation: electron carriers generated in steps 1-3 donated their high-energy electrons to an electron transport chain (also called a respiratory chain) Not to be confused with the photosynthetic etc, which takes place in thylakoids.
