  • Cellular respiration is similar to the etc of photosynthesis and happens in the inner membrane, specifically the cristae (folds).
  • The inner membrane of a cell contains protein complexes, chemiosmosis, and ATP synthase.
  • Cellular respiration does not involve light.
  • Oxygen pulls the electron from NADH and FADH2 down the electron transport chain to a lower energy state.
  • Cellular respiration uses high energy electrons from the NADH and FADH2 provided by the Krebs Cycle to move H+(protons) across the concentration gradient.
  • These protons pass back down the concentration gradient through ATP synthase to form ATP.
  • Cellular respiration produces 34 ATP or 90% (uncertain) of the ATP in the body (grand total is 36-38?).
  • The electron transport chain (ETC) in cellular respiration is very much like the ETC in the light reactions of photosynthesis.
  • The process of cellular respiration produces 34 ATP or 90% (uncertain) of the ATP in the body (grand total is 36-38?).
  • Bacteria used in cheese processing produce lactic acid, this is used in products such as buttermilk, sour cream, yogurt, sauerkraut, and pickles.
  • Alcoholic fermentation in yeast produces ethanol and is used in the baking, wine making and brewing industry.
  • The souring of dairy products is the production of lactic acid by anaerobic bacteria.
  • Lactic acid fermentation can occur when the energy is not enough, the glucose will undergo lactid acid fermentation to produce lactate.
  • When conducting a high level of activity, breathing doesn't supply enough air for cell's activities, this is known as respiratory acidosis.
  • The lactate produced in lactid acid fermentation will go back to the liver to produce glucose.
  • Respiratory acidosis occurs when oxygen is not present, this is known as anaerobic conditions.
  • Alcoholic fermentation occurs when oxygen is absent, this is also known as anaerobic conditions.
  • Lactic acid fermentation in muscle cells makes muscles tired and is known as muscle fatigue.
