Autotrophs:(photosynthesis)
Heterotrophs: (consuming
food)
What is Cellular Respiration?
Cellular respiration releases
chemical energy from sugars and
other carbon- based molecules to
make ATP when oxygen is present.
Occurs in all living cells
The point
is to make
ATP !
ATP
What is ATP?
ATP (energy molecule):
adenosine triphosphate.
Created in the mitochondria.
ATP isa molecule that transfers
energy from the breakdown of
food molecules to cell processes.
Cycling of Energy
Prokaryotes:
in the cytoplasm
Question?
Why does cellular respiration occur in the
cytoplasm of prokaryotes? Why not the
mitochondria?
What are the parts of the mitochondrion?
space) membrane
Cristae (folded
areas of the inner
membrane)
Parts of Mitochondria
Review
Wheredoes cellular respiration take place in
eukaryotes?
1. Glycolysis
2. Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid
Cycle)
3. Electron Transport Chain
Step 1: Glycolysis
glycolysis = “breaking glucose”
occurs in the cytoplasm
anaerobic process (does not require oxygen)
glucose is broken down into 2 pyruvic acids
2 net ATP are produced
Step 2: Krebs Cycle
1 mitochondrion ATP
requiresoxygen
occurs on Cristae (across the inner membrane of
mitochondria)
Maximum ATP is produced as a result
Cellular Respiration
