Aerobic Respiration A type of Cellular Respiration
A set of metabolic reactions that take place in cells to convert biochemical energy from nutrients to ATP (adenosine triphosphate). • These are catabolic reactions. • Catabolic reactions break down molecules into smaller units and release energy Aerobic Respiration
Requires O2 • Produces 36 ATP molecules • Occurs in the cytoplasm then the mitochondria Overview
C6H12O6+ 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP Reactants Products Carbon Dioxide Glucose Oxygen Energy Water Equation
Glycolysis • Krebs cycle aka Citric Acid Cycle • Electron Transport Chain Stages
Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm in cells • the Krebs cycle (also called the citric acid cycle) and Electron transport chain occurs in the mitochondria along the cristae (inner membrane)
Explain in 2-3 sentences how cellular respiration and photosynthesis are linked.
