Cellular Respiration

Cards (16)

  • Releases energy in glucose
    Cellular Respiration
  • The process by which cells break down organic molecules, such as glucose, to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the primary energy currency of cells.
    Cellular Respiration
  • Occurs in the presence of oxygen. It involves a complete breakdown of glucose to produce a larger amount of ATP. Also includes the stages of glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain.
    Aerobic Respiration
  • Occurs in the absence of oxygen. It involves an incomplete breakdown of glucose to produce a smaller amount of ATP. Also includes only the glycolysis stage, without the citric acid cycle and electron transport chain
    Anaerobic Respiration
  • The first stage of cellular respiration. It occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. It also Breaks down glucose into pyruvate molecules and produces a small amount of ATP.
    Glycolysis
  • Occurs in the mitochondria. It further breaks down the pyruvate molecules from glycolysis. Produces additional ATP, as well as NADH and FADH2 electron carriers.
    Krebs Cycle
  • The process of generating ATP using the electron transport chain and chemiomosis.
