Document Summary

Aerobic pathway occurs only if oxygen is present. The krebs cycle (citric acid cycle: electron transport chain, chemiosmosis. 2 pyruvate (from 1 glucose) enter the mitochondria matrix. The kreps cycle is a cycle because it starts and ends with the same molecule: oxaloacetate (remember the calvin cycle?) Also known as citric acid cycle citrate is 1 st molecule produced. A series of 7 reactions each catalyzed by a different enzyme. Oxaloacetate is regenerated with each turn of the wheel. So far, the cell has only gained 4 total atp from 1 glucose molecule. ** 2 net atp from glycolysis and 2 atp from the krebs cycle. But the cell has also gained lots of charged electron carriers! Per 1 glucose molecule 10 nadph and 2 fadh2. That brings us to the electron transport chain. High energy electrons are passed down the chain and their released energy is used to create a.
