CELLULAR RESPIRATION
2 Stages
1.  ________________________________________________________________________
2.  ________________________________  or  2._______________________________________
(the presence of _______________ determines which #2 it will do)

The ____________________is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 Celsius degree. 

Cell respiration occurs in all cells.  It involves breaking the chemical bonds of organic food molecules & releasing that energy to be used by the cells.  This energy comes from ________________________.

Equation for cell respiration:


Metabolic processes that require oxygen are termed ______________ & those that do not require oxygen are termed _____________________.  The primary source of energy for the cells is __________________.

STEP 1:  _____________________________ - glucose is broken in half to form 2 three-carbon molecules of _____________________________ - this step takes place in the __________________ of the cell
-- this step produces 4 ATP�s, but it took 2 ATP�s to get it started, so there is a net gain of ____ ATP�s ;
4 Hydrogen�s are also released � these go with the H acceptor known as __________

The presence or absence of oxygen determines what the next step in cell respiration will be.

IF THERE IS NO OXYGEN PRESENT, CELLS GO THROUGH ___________________________.
Pyruvic acid is broken down into ___________________________ (fungi & plants � CO2 is a byproduct � this is known as ______________ fermentation) or _________________________________ (animals � this is what makes you sore after an intense workout).

IF OXYGEN IS PRESENT, CELLS GO THROUGH ____________________________________.
STEP 1:  ________________________ - breaks down pyruvic acid to CO2, H, & a 2-Carbon acetyl group.  CO2 is a waste product, H combines with its Hydrogen acceptor  which is _____ or _______, & the acetyl group combines with coenzyme A (niacin) & forms _____________(this is carried into the next step).

STEP 2:  ________________________ -In this step, pyruvic acid is broken down into _____________________________.  This leaves your body every time you exhale.  Steps:   Acetyl CoA transfers its acetyl group to a 4-carbon molecule to form a 6-carbon molecule called _____________________.  Citric acid then enters a series of reactions called the Krebs Cycle (aka Citric Acid Cycle).  This occurs in the ______________________.  One turn of the cycle produces _______ molecules of CO2 as wastes, H combines with its acceptors, & ADP is converted into ________.  The _____________________________ transfers energy from the hydrogens produced & makes ________.

Cell Respiration Tally Sheet:

Glycolysis ------   2 ATP�s     -->     ___ ATP�s
                          2 NADH�s  -->      ___ ATP�s  ****
   
Acetyl CoA ---   2 NADH�s  -->         ___ ATP�s

Kreb�s Cycle ---   2 ATP�s  -->          ___ ATP�s
                          2 NADH�s  -->        ___ ATP�s
                          2 NADH�s  -->        ___ ATP�s
                          2 FADH�s  -->         ___ ATP�s
                          2 NADH�s  -->         ___ ATP�s
                                
                                    TOTAL =  ________ ATP�s

1 NADH = 3 ATP�s � ****except in glycolysis when it only generates 2 ATP�s
1 FADH = 2 ATP�s
