Describe the process of Cellular Respiration including Glycolysis the Kreb s cycle and electron Transport
Cellular Respiration is the energy in a chemical bond, which is visualized as potential energy borne by the electrons that make up the covalent bond. ... Cellular Respiration basically oxidizes food molecules. The following 3 stages carry out aerobic respiration by oxidizing the end product of glycolysis. Stage one is, Glycolysis, which produces ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation. ... Glycolysis can be carried out anerobically (in the absence of oxygen) and is thus an especially important pathway for organisms that can ferment sugars. For example, glycolysis is the pathway utilized by yeast to produce the alcohol found in beer. Glycolysis also serves as a source of raw materials for the synthesis of other compounds. For example, 3 phosphoglycerate can be converted into serine, while pyruvate can be aerobically degraded by the Krebs or TCA cycle to produce much larger amounts of ATP. Stage two is, Pyruvate Oxidation, which is the end product from Glycolysis. ... Stage Three is The Krebs Cycle. Step 1 of the Krebs Cycle- The acetic acid subunit of acetyl CoA is combined with oxaloacetate to form a molecule of citrate. ... After Step 1, the coenzyme is released by hydrolysis so that it may combine with another acetic acid molecule to begin the Krebs cycle again.
