Document Summary
Cellular respiration is the collection of metabolic reactions within cells that break down food molecules to produce atp: universal energy currency that fuels nearly all the reactions that keep cells, and organism metabolically active. 6. 3 glycolysis: the splitting of glucose glycolysis is a 10 step enzyme catalyzed reactions that lead to the oxidation of the six carbon sugar glucose producing two molecules of the three-carbon compound pyruvate. 5 steps of energy investment and 5 steps of payoff. 2 atp is consumed as glucose and fructose become phosphorylated: 4 atp and 2 nadh are formed in the payoff stage. 4) fructose-1,6- bisphosphate is split into two g3p (glyceraldehyde) and dap (dihydroxyacetone phosphate) Atp is generated by substrate-level phosphorylation: involves the transfer of a phosphate group from high-energy substrate molecule to adenosine diphosphate producing atp. 6. 4 pyruvate oxidation and the citric acid cycle. The two molecule of pyruvate synthesized by glycolysis still contain useable free energy.
