Document Summary

7. 1 overview of cellular respiration: cellular respiration comprises the metabolic reactions that a cell uses to get energy from food molecules + release waste products, main goal make atp, aerobic respiration o2 is consumed + co2 is released via the oxidation of organic molecules, glucose is a major energy source for cellular respiration, c6h12o6 + 6o2 6co2 + 6h2o + energy intermediates + heat, delta g= 686 kcal/mol, glucose is broken down + energy stored in those bonds is release and used to make atp, nadh, + fadh2. At the end is oxygen= final electron acceptor: some of the energy released during movement of electrons is used to pump h+ across the inner mitochondrial membrane + into inner membrane space, h+ electrochemical gradient: concentration of h+ is higher outside of the matrix than inside, synthesis of atp by atp synthase.
