ecosystem as _________ and leaves as ??????
• ????????s generates oxygen and organic molecules

The breakdown of organic molecules is exergonic
– Fermentation is a partial degradation of sugars thatoccurs without oxygen
– Cellular respiration consumes oxygen and organic
molecules and yields ATP

The Stages of Cellular Respiration
•
Cellular respiration has three stages:
1. Glycolysis (breaks down glucose into two
molecules of pyruvate)
2. The citric acid cycle (completes the
breakdown of glucose)
3. Oxidative phosphorylation : accounts for
almost 90% of the ATP generated by cellular
respiration
• A small amount of ATP is formed in glycolysis and

Glycolysis
• Glycolysis (“splitting of
sugar”) breaks down
glucose into two molecules of pyruvate
• Glycolysis occurs in the
cytoplasm and has two major phases:
– Energy investment phase – Energy payoff phase

The electron transport chain
•
The electron transport chain generates no ATP
•
The chain’s function is to break the large
Chemiosmosis
• Electron transfer in the electron transport chain causes
proteins to pump H+ from the mitochondrial matrix to
the intermembrane space
• H+ then moves back across the membrane, passing
through channels in ATP synthase
• ATP synthase uses the exergonic flow of H+ to drive
phosphorylation of ATP
– This is an example of chemiosmosis, the use of energy in a

Fermentation enables some cells to produce ATP without the use of oxygen
• Cellular respiration requires O2 to produce ATP
• Glycolysis can produce ATP with or without O2 (in aerobic or anaerobic conditions)
• Fermentation: In the absence of O2, glycolysis couples with reactions that regenerate NAD+ to produce ATP
– Two common types are alcohol fermentation and
Alcohol Fermentation
• In alcohol fermentation, pyruvate is converted to
ethanol in two steps, with the first releasing CO2

Fermentation and Cellular Respiration
Compared
• Both processes use glycolysis
to oxidize glucose and other organic fuels to pyruvate
• The processes have different
final electron acceptors: an organic molecule (such as pyruvate) in fermentation and O2 in cellular respiration
• Cellular respiration produces
Facultative anaerobes can use fermentation
or cellular respiration
• Yeast and many
bacteria are facultative anaerobes
– For them,
pyruvate is a fork in the
metabolic road that leads to two alternative catabolic routes

The Versatility of Catabolism
Citric acid cycle Oxidative phosphorylation Proteins NH3 Amino acids Sugars Carbohydrates Glycolysis Glucose Glyceraldehyde-3- P Pyruvate Acetyl CoA Fatty acids Glycerol Fats• Catabolic pathways funnel electrons from many kinds of organic molecules into cellular respiration
• Glycolysis: a wide range of
carbohydrates
• Proteins:amino groups can feed glycolysis or the citric acid cycle
• Fats: glycerol can enter
Biosynthesis (Anabolic Pathways)
• The body uses small molecules to build other
substances
– These small molecules may come directly from food,
• Feedback inhibition is the most common
mechanism for control
• If ATP concentration begins to drop,
respiration speeds up; ATP is abundant,
respiration slows down
• Control of catabolism:
