 Cellular respiration converts the chemical energy of
food molecules into the chemical energy of ______,
which drives all cellular work.
Along with food molecules such as glucose,
cellular respiration _______________.

Along with ATP, cellular respiration produces

___________________________.
 _______________
Solar energy chemical energy of food
chemical energy of ATP heat.
______________
The products of photosynthesis are the
reactants of cellular respiration, and vice
versa.

Cellular Respiration
Cellular respiration converts the chemical energy of
food into ATP energy.
It is an aerobic process ______________.

Cellular respiration occurs within all eukaryotic cells

(animals, plants, and fungi).
It occurs within a cells ________________.

Redox Reactions
Hydrogens are transferred from glucose to oxygen
during cellular respiration.
When a hydrogen is transferred from one
molecule to another, its electron goes with it.
A reaction that transfers electrons is called a
reduction-oxidation, or ___________, reaction.

Reduction is the _____________.

Oxidation is the ______________.
 Glucose loses hydrogens (and therefore electrons).
________________________________.

Oxygen gains hydrogens (and therefore electrons).

Reduction
Oxygen gains electrons (and hydrogens)
 Redox reactions involving oxygen yield energy.
Oxygen pulls electrons toward itself.
_________________from glucose to oxygen,
and this fall of electrons converts chemical
energy into the energy used for the synthesis
of ATP.
This is the reason cellular respiration is an
______________(oxygen-requiring) process.
The Stages of Cellular Respiration
Cellular respiration consists of three reaction steps.

Glycolysis
Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol of a cell.
Glycolysis splits a 6-carbon glucose molecule
into two 3-carbon molecules called ________
____________.
This process produces ________________.
Glycolysis does not require oxygen.
Citric Acid Cycle
The citric acid cycle occurs within the matrix of
mitochondria.
The citric acid cycle breaks down the pyruvic
acid molecules into carbon dioxide molecules.
This process produces _________________.
The citric acid cycle does not require oxygen.
Electron Transport
Electron transport occurs on the cristae of
mitochondria.
Electron transport _______________.
All of the hydrogens (and their electrons) from
the oxidation of glucose fall to oxygen,
reducing oxygen to water.
This process produces _________________.

Fermentation
Fermentation is the anaerobic conversion of foods
chemical energy into ATP energy.
_______________________.
 Fermentation is a modified glycolysis stage.
It produces __________________.
Without oxygen present, the pyruvic acid
product of glycolysis is converted to________
____________.
Fermentation in Human Muscle Cells
During normal activity, oxygen is in sufficient supply
to keep cellular respiration functioning.
During vigorous exercise, oxygen demand to muscle
cells exceeds its supply.
ATP production switches to _____________.
Fermentation in Microorganisms
Under anaerobic conditions, bacteria also undergo
fermentation.
____________(unicellular fungi) undergo a different
type of fermentation.
_______________________are produced
instead of lactic acid.
