The three stages of aerobic cellular respiration are?

New cards
4

Fermentation

produces relatively less energy than respiration, because it does not result in the complete oxidation of glucose.

New cards
5

Metabolism

refers to the sum total of the biochemical reactions that take place within an organism

New cards
6

Metabolic pathways

occur in a series of enzyme catalyzed steps, so that small amounts of energy are invested or released at each step.
