Document Summary

Organic compound + oxygen carbon dioxide + water + energy. Gasoline is pumped into a car"s tank the car dispels the fuel waste. There are three key pathways of respiration: Occurs in the cytosol and starts to degrade glucose into two. Glycolysis: as exhaust molecules of a compound referred to as pyruvate. The pyruvate then enters mitochondria, through a transport protein, and nearly gives up a molecule of carbon dioxide (oxidized). It also oxidizes a hydrogen molecule to form nadh. And, finally, coenzyme a enter the compound to form acetyl coa. Acetyl coa from glycolysis enters and is broken down, further, into carbon dioxide (in prokaryotes this step occurs in the cytosol) Atp synthesis powered by redox reactions of electron transport chain. Metabolic pathways that release stored energy by breaking down molecules. Occurs without the use of oxygen to degrade sugars (or other. The most efficient pathway in which oxygen is consumed.
