Document Summary

Respiration is an overall exergonic process which yields a negative change in gibbs" free energy (- g). Out of all metabolic processes, cellular respiration has a fundamental role in biological function. Respiration consists of two major types of metabolic pathways: catabolic pathways and anabolic pathways. Catabolic pathways involve the breakdown of molecules and release of free energy. Anabolic pathways involve the synthesis of more complex molecules out of simpler forms. Examples of such pathways include all biosynthetic pathways like photosynthesis. Catabolic pathways drive the conversion of adp + pi to atp. When the free energy of atp is coupled with anabolic pathways, the energy is released and leaves behind the original reactants, adp and pi, waiting to begin the cycle again. Recall that food can be the equivalent of fuel as molecules for consumption (like glucose, amino acids and fatty acids) contain lots of carbon-hydrogen bonds. Especially in glucose, there is a lot of free energy associated with such molecules.
