Stages Of Cellular respiration (review)

Bio 1107 ch. 7

What are the three stages of Cellular respiration?

Glycolsis, Citric Acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation

What is Glycolysis?

Breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate

Where does Glycolysis occur?

It occurs in the cytosol of the cell

What does Glycolysis make?

Makes ATP ( a little), and NADH

What is the Citric acid cycle?

Completes the breakdown of glucose

Where does Citric acid cycle occur?

Occurs in the mitochondrial matrix

what does the Citric acid cycle make?

Makes ATP ( a little), NADH, and FADH2 (another E- carrier) 

What does the Oxidative phosphorylation do?

Accounts for most of the ATP synthesis

What does Oxidative phosphorylation use?

Uses an ETC (3a) and Chemiosmosis (3b)

what does Oxidative phosphorylation make?

Makes 90% of ATP

Where does Oxidative phosphorylation occur?

Where ETC’s are, mitochondrial cristae for eukaryotic cells
