Cellular Respiration

________ is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

The ________ occurs in the mitochondria and further breaks down pyruvate into carbon dioxide, producing more ATP and NADH.

________ occurs in the cytoplasm and breaks down glucose into two pyruvate molecules, producing a small amount of ATP and NADH.

________ occurs in the mitochondria and uses the energy from NADH and another molecule called FADH2 to produce a large amount of ATP.

It occurs in three stages: ________, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

________ is essential for all living organisms to produce energy for cellular processes.

glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation

glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + ATP

Summaration of ALL chemcical reactions

organsims pefer using oxygen but if not available it can survive w/ just the anaerobic processes

Organism MUST have oxygen; AKA humans

(they can how ever do some metabolism without oxygen; fermentation)

Organisms tolerate oxgen but don’t need it to drive a metabolic reaction

CANNOT tolerate oxygen; WILL DIE 💀

Pyruvates→ into acetyl CoA

NADH & FADH2 are _____
