Presentation Transcript

  1. Glycolysis and Cellular Respiration:Breaking Down Glucose to Make ATP

  2. In the cytoplasm… • Glycolysis: “breaking glucose” • breaks glucose in half, into two molecules called pyruvate. (makes 2 ATP) ATP C C C becomes C – C- C + C- C- C + Pyruvate Pyruvate C C C ATP

  3. In the Cytoplasm… • Pyruvate Oxidation (intermediate step) • Pyruvate is broken down by an enzyme called Coenyzme A • It becomes Acetyl CoA + CoenzymeA Pyruvate Acetyl-CoA

  4. Energized Electrons!! NADH In the Mitochondria ATP ATP NAD+ KREBS CYCLE CO2

  5. NADH In the membrane of the mitochondria Electron Transport chain water H+ water O2 water water H+ H+ water ATP ATP H+ H+ ATP ATP ATP
