Document Summary

Know what makes co2, what makes atp. Do not need to know how many atp or nadh is made no stoichiometric questions. What we need to know: what the ca cycle does, whether co2 is product, whether. Atp is made by glycolysis (just no counting) Taking molecules with lots of ch bonds (energy in them) Taking energy and breaking it down (catabolic), results in energy. Glucose has more energy than carbon products. Although the overall reaction is exergonic, not all processes are exergonic. There are also endergonic steps in cellular respiration, it"s just that the overall g is exergonic but not every single step is exergonic. Exists to convert free energy in food into a universal currency , which is atp. If cells use different currencies, things would be so confusing. We want everything to be constant, simple. Goal of respiration: get atp, the universal currency. Making proteins, fa, testosterone etc. are anabolic process.
