Document Summary

Acetyl-coa: common point where all fuels meet at the start of aerobic atp production. Glucose pyruvate acetyl-coa fatty-acid fatty acyl-coa acetyl-coa. Also called the citric acid cycle (tca cycle) Carbohydrate, fat, & protein can all enter. Completes the oxidation of substrates and produces nadh and. Forms 2 co2 molecules & only 1 atp. Hydrogens & electrons are transported to etc by 3 nadh & 1 fadh: electron transport chain (etc) Produces majority of atp in aerobic metabolism. Oxidative phosphorylation: production of atp by etc: acetyl-coa enters the krebs cycle. Energy gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane provides energy to form atp. Reducing agents (nadh, fadh2) donate electrons to help form the gradient. Electrons and h+ from nadh and fadh2 are accepted by o2 to form water. 3 atp produced for every nadh; 2 atp produced for every fadh2. Total amount varies based on length and saturation of fatty acid chains.
