BIO 1000 - Metabolic pathways: Cellular Respiration (chp 6)
Cellular Respiration (p 121)
The collection of metabolic reactions w/in cells that breaks down food molecules & uses the liberated
free energy to synthesize ATP
Types (p 137) …
1. Aerobic respiration
Use Oxygen as terminal electron acceptor in ETC
2. Anaerobic respiration
Uses a molecule other than Oxygen as terminal electron accepter (Fe3+ sulfate, nitrate etc) in
ETC. No oxygen required
3. Fermentation (p 137)
doesn’t use ETC, no oxygen required
Redox Reactions (p 122)
Series of Oxidation – Reduction (redox) Reactions
Loss & addition (transfer) of electrons
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ->6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP + heat
These reactions involve the transfer of electrons between molecules
Oxidation = Loss of electrons
Reduction = Gain of electrons
Principle of Redox Reactions
Reducing Agent
oThe electron-donating molecule in a Redox rxn (being oxidized)
Oxidizing Agent
oThe electron-accepting molecule (being reduced)
Redox Reactions (*know what’s being oxidized & reduced*)

Document Summary

Bio 1000 - metabolic pathways: cellular respiration (chp 6) The collection of metabolic reactions w/in cells that breaks down food molecules & uses the liberated free energy to synthesize atp. Use oxygen as terminal electron acceptor in etc: anaerobic respiration. Uses a molecule other than oxygen as terminal electron accepter (fe3+ sulfate, nitrate etc) in. No oxygen required: fermentation (p 137) doesn"t use etc, no oxygen required. Series of oxidation reduction (redox) reactions. C6h12o6 + 6o2 ->6co2 + 6h2o + atp + heat. These reactions involve the transfer of electrons between molecules. Reducing agent: the electron-donating molecule in a redox rxn (being oxidized) Oxidizing agent: the electron-accepting molecule (being reduced) Redox reactions (*know what"s being oxidized & reduced*) Electrons travel w/ protons (h+ : tf, addition or removal of h associated w/ redox rxns. Fadh2 (reduced form) used in electron transport chain to produce atp.
