Document Summary

Cellular respiration: the catabolic pathways of aerobic and anaerobic respiration, which break down organic molecules and use an electron transport chain for the production of atp. Catabolic pathway is a metabolic pathway that releases energy by breaking down complex molecules into simpler molecules. Anabolic pathway is a metabolic pathway that consumes energy to synthesize a complex molecule from simpler molecules. Photosynthesis: 6co2 + 6h2o + light energy . Cellular respiration: c6h12o6 + 6o2 6co2 + 6h2o + Humans needs to get energy that is already in the form of an organic molecule; plants make their own organic molecules. Two mechanisms generate atp: substrate-level phosphorylation - enzyme transfers phosphate group from organic substrate to adp. If we have substrate that has phosphate groups + appropriate enzyme to remove phosphate to transfer. Adp atp: oxidative phosphorylation - energy is stored as a h+ gradient across a membrane then used to make atp.
