    Cellular Respiration

    I. Chemical Energy and ATP (Adenosine


    Triphosphate)
    a. Chemical compound that stores and
    releases energy for use by your cells.

    Adenin 3 Phosphate
    e groups

    Ribose
    2 Phosphate groups

    ADP
    Using Biochemical Energy
    b. ATP is used in your cells for:
    1. Cellular work
    2. Cell growth
    3. Repairing cells
    4. Reproducing cells
    II. Chemical Energy & Food
    a. Cells don’t “burn” glucose, they
    gradually release the energy stored in
    glucose, through a series of reactions.
    (First step of cellular respiration.)
    b. Glycolysis is a process that occurs in
    the cytoplasm of a cell, in which one
    molecule of glucose (6 carbon
    molecule) is broken in half into 2
    Pyruvic Acids (3 carbon molecule).
    i. This is an anaerobic reaction,
    occurs when oxygen is NOT
    present.
    ii. *Net gain = 2 ATP (4 ATPs were
    produced, but 2 ATPs were used in
    the process.)
    c. Pyruvic Acid, from glycolysis, is further
    broken down to get energy out by:
    i. Anaerobic (without oxygen) =
    fermentation
    1. Alcoholic fermentation- yeast
    (forms ethyl alcohol and CO2.)

    CO2 is
    what causes
    bread to
    rise.
    2. Lactic acid fermentation- occurs
    in some bacteria and animal cells.
    [Example: after exercise lactic acid
    can build up in muscle cells. Causes
    the “burn”.]
    ii. Cellular respiration = occurs in the
    presence of oxygen (Aerobic)
    Fermentation is the process of converting carbohydrates to alcohol or to organic
    acids using microorganisms, such as yeasts or bacteria. This process takes place
    when there are beneficial bacteria present that break down the starch and sugars in
    the food. As the microorganisms divide, lactic acid is formed, which stops the
    growth of bad bacteria. The lactic acid is also what gives fermented foods that
    very specific ‘tangy’ or ‘acidic’ taste. Fermented foods can last for many months
    (some products even lasting multiple years) as long as they are stored in a cool,
    dark place and kept in the solution of salt and water known as brine.
    d. Cellular Respiration is a process that
    occurs in the Mitochondria of both plant
    & animal cells.

    General Formula:
    C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36ATP
    REACTANTS/RAW MATERIALS:
    C6H12O6 = Glucose
    *Plants get from photosynthesis
    *Animals from eating plants
    O2= oxygen, from air
    *Plants in through leaves
    *Animals by breathing
    PRODUCTS:
    CO2 = carbon dioxide, waste product released
    *Plants out through leaves
    *Animals out by breathing
    H2O = water, waste product released
    *Plants out through leaves
    *Animals out by breathing

    *Net gain of 36 ATP = ENERGY for cellular work


    in both plants and animals. (2 ATP from glycolysis
    and 34 ATP from Cellular Respiration.)

    IV. Comparing Photosynthesis and Cellular
    Respiration
    a. The energy flows in photosynthesis and
    cellular respiration take place in
    opposite directions.
    b. Photosynthesis and cellular
    respiration are opposites.
    i. Photosynthesis removes carbon
    dioxide from the atmosphere and
    cellular respiration puts it back.
    ii. Photosynthesis releases
    oxygen into the atmosphere and
    cellular respiration uses that
    oxygen to release energy from
    food.
