  5. Catabolic pathways yield E by oxidizing organic fuels

  6. Catabolic Pathways and Production of ATP • Breakdown of organic molecules is exergonic

  7. Cellular respiration • Most prevalent and efficient catabolic pathway • Consumes O2 and organic molecules e.g. glucose • Yields ATP

  8. To keep working cells regenerate ATP

  9. Redox Reactions: Oxidation and Reduction • Catabolic pathways yield energy • Due to the transfer of electrons (e-)
