CELLULAR RESPIRATION BIOLOGY IB/ SL Option C.3
BIOCHEMICAL REACTIONS • All living organisms require a constant supply of energy to sustain life. • Cellular respiration - the chemical energy stored in glucose is converted into a more usable form – ATP • Requires the presence of oxygen and the correct enzymes • Carbon dioxide, water and heat are also released as by-products of this reaction. C6H12O6 + 6 O2→ 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + energy (ATP + heat) glucose + oxygen → carbon + water +energy dioxide
Oxidation / Reduction • Oxidation involves the loss of electrons from an element; oxidation frequently involves gaining oxygen or losing hydrogen • Reduction involves a gainof electrons; and that reduction frequently involves losing oxygen or gaining hydrogen
Cellular respiration is an example of a Redox reaction as shown in the chemical equation below
NAD+ electron carrier • Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide • Coenzyme, oxidizing agent, reduced form is NADH • NADH carries electrons to ETC
Adenosine triphosphate /ATP ATP Section 8-1 Adenine Ribose 3 Phosphate groups Go to Section:
PHOSPHORYLATION • OXIDATIVE • ATP synthesis powered by redox reactions • Electron transport chain • Requires oxygen (final electron acceptor) • SUBSTRATE LEVEL • ATP synthesis from transfer of phosphate group from substrate to ADP • Glycolysis and Krebs cycle

Stages of Cellular Respiration • GLYCOLYSIS • First pathway in a cell getting energy out of food. Breaks glucose into pyruvic acid and ATP. • Takes place in the cytoplasm • Releases only a small amount of energy • Will happen with or without oxygen 2. KREBS CYCLE • Happens in the mitochondrial matrix • Only takes place if oxygen is present 3. ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN (Oxidative phosphorylation) • Happens in the inner mitochondrial membrane • Only takes place if oxygen is present
Respiration/ overview Chapter 8
GLYCOLYSIS • In glycolysis a 6C glucose molecule is broken into 2 (3C) molecules of pyruvate (pyruvic acid) • Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell – near the mitochondria • Yields are: • + 2 ATP (4 ATP – 2ATP - used to phosphorylate glucose when it enters cell) • 2 NADH (NAD+ is reduced to NADH) • This process is anaerobic (without oxygen)…can happen even if there is an insufficient O2 level to carry out the rest of cellular respiration
Glycolysis Section 9-1 Glucose 2 Pyruvic acid To the electron transport chain Go to Section:
FERMENTATION • Under anaerobic conditions, pyruvate is converted into lactate or ethanol, a process called fermentation • Fermentation does not produce more ATP, but is necessary to regenerate/ recycle the high-energy electron carrier molecule NAD+, which must be available for glycolysis to continue
Fermentation of Dough Explain how does the dough rise? Chapter 8
Mitochondrial structure • Double membrane-bound organelle • Inner membrane folded into christae a) Increase surface area for reactions b) ETC located here 3) Intermembrane space 4) Matrix - Kreb’s cycle
DOUBLE MEMBRANE ORGANELLES In eukaryotic cells, cellular respiration occurs within mitochondria, organelles with two membranes that have two compartments. The inner membrane encloses a central compartment containing the fluid matrix The outer membrane surrounds the organelle, producing an intermembranespace Chapter 8
LINK RECTION (Oxidation of Pyruvate) Occurs in mitochondrion, requires transport protein & coenzyme A Yields Acetyl CoA, 1 NADH & 1 H+from each pyruvate (2 total) Waste – carbon dioxide
Electron transport chain (ETC) - Electrons from reduced coenzymes NADH and FADH2 are transferred through a series of redox reactions from one carrier to another located in the inner mitochondrial membrane until the electrons are accepted by oxygen to make water. - Every time the electron is passed, some of its energy is released and can be used to make ATP - The rest of the energy is released as heat
Electron Transport Chain Section 9-2 Electron Transport Hydrogen Ion Movement Channel Intermembrane Space ATP synthase Inner Membrane Matrix ATP Production Go to Section:
CHEMIOSMOSIS • Energy is released from electrons as they are passed down the electron transport chain • Released energy used to pump hydrogen ions across the inner membrane • Hydrogen ions accumulate in intermembranespace • Hydrogen ions form a concentration gradient across the membrane, a form of stored energy • Hydrogen ions flow back into the matrix through an ATP synthesizing enzyme • Process is called chemiosmosis Chapter 8
CHEMIOSMOSIS • Energy coupling • ATP synthase • Generates ATP • Molecular mill • Powered by proton flow • Uses exergonic flow of electrons to pump H+ (protons) from matrix into intermembrane space, they flow back through ATP synthase • H+ gradient couples redox reactions of ETC to ATP synthesis
ATP Synthase • Enzyme along inner mitochondrial membrane • Uses electrochemical potential energy to drive phosphorylation • Proton-motive force

ETC produces: (per glucose) 2 NADH (from glycolysis) 2 NADH (from intermediate reactions) + 6 NADH (Krebs cycle)______________ 10 NADH x 3 ATP/NADH = 30 ATP 2 FADH2x 2 ATP/ FADH2 = 4 ATP____ for a total 34 ATP/glucose from ETS
Cellular Respiration Energy Summary 34 ATP/glucose from ETS + 2 ATP (glycolysis) + 2 ATP (Krebs cycle)_______________ 38 ATP per glucose!!!
Influence on How Organisms Function • Metabolic processes in cells are heavily dependent on ATP generation (cyanide kills by preventing this) • Muscle cells switch between fermentation and aerobic cell respiration depending on O2 availability Chapter 8
