Cellular Respiration: Harvesting Chemical Energy


• Bacteria are used to produce yogurt, sour cream, pepperoni, and cheese

• Both carbon monoxide and cyanide kill by disrupting cellular respiration


• All the energy in all the food you eat can be traced back to sunlight

• If you exercise too hard, your muscles shut down from a lack of oxygen


• When you exercise

BIOLOGY AND SOCIETY: FEELING THE “BURN”

– Muscles need energy in order to perform work

– Your cells use oxygen to release energy from the sugar glucose


• Aerobic metabolism

– When enough oxygen reaches cells to support energy needs

• Anaerobic metabolism

– When the demand for oxygen outstrips the body’s ability to deliver it


• Anaerobic metabolism

– Without enough oxygen, muscle cells break down glucose to produce lactic acid

– Lactic acid is associated with the “burn” associated with heavy exercise

– If too much lactic acid builds up, your muscles give out


• Physical conditioning allows your body to adapt to increased activity

– The body can increase its ability to deliver oxygen to muscles

• Long-distance runners wait until the final sprint to exceed their aerobic capacity

ENERGY FLOW AND CHEMICAL CYCLING IN THE BIOSPHERE

• Fuel molecules in food represent solar energy

– Energy stored in food can be traced back to the sun

• Animals depend on plants to convert solar energy to chemical energy

– This chemical energy is in the form of sugars and other organic molecules


• Photosynthesis

Producers and Consumers

– Light energy from the sun powers a chemical process that makes organic molecules

– This process occurs in the leaves of terrestrial plants


• Autotrophs

– “Self-feeders”

– Plants and other organisms that make all their own organic matter from inorganic nutrients

• Heterotrophs

– “Other-feeders”

– Humans and other animals that cannot make organic molecules from inorganic ones


• Producers

– Biologists refer to plants and other autotrophs as the producers in an ecosystem

• Consumers

– Heterotrophs are consumers, because they eat plants or other animals

Figure 6.2


• The ingredients for photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water

– CO2 is obtained from the air by a plant’s leaves

– H2O is obtained from the damp soil by a plant’s roots

• Chloroplasts rearrange the atoms of these ingredients to produce sugars (glucose) and other organic molecules

– Oxygen gas is a by-product of photosynthesis

Chemical Cycling Between Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration


• Both plants and animals perform cellular respiration

– Cellular respiration is a chemical process that harvests energy from organic molecules

– Cellular respiration occurs in mitochondria

• The waste products of cellular respiration, CO2 and H2O, are used in photosynthesis

CELLULAR RESPIRATION: AEROBIC HARVEST OF FOOD ENERGY

– The main way that chemical energy is harvested from food and converted to ATP

– This is an aerobic process—it requires oxygen


• Cellular respiration and breathing are closely related

– Cellular respiration requires a cell to exchange gases with its surroundings

– Breathing exchanges these gases between the blood and outside air

The Relationship Between Cellular Respiration and Breathing

Cellularrespiration


• A common fuel molecule for cellular respiration is glucose

– This is the overall equation for what happens to glucose during cellular respiration

The Overall Equation for Cellular Respiration

Glucose Oxygen Carbondioxide

Water Energy


• During cellular respiration, hydrogen and its bonding electrons change partners

– Hydrogen and its electrons go from sugar to oxygen, forming water

The Role of Oxygen in Cellular Respiration


• Chemical reactions that transfer electrons from one substance to another are called oxidation-reduction reactions

Redox Reactions

– Redox reactions for short


• The loss of electrons during a redox reaction is called oxidation

• The acceptance of electrons during a redox reaction is called reduction

•RS IS NECESSARY IN ALL LIVING CELLS.

•PLANTS ARE WELL KNOWN FOR PS, BUT THEY MUST ALSO REPIRE IN ORDER TO

SURVIVE.

• PS - OCCURS ONLY IN PLANT CELLS CONTAINING CHLOROPHYLL DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS.

•RS - OCCURS IN ALL OF A PLANT’S LIVING CELLS 24 -7.


PLANTS NEED ENERGY TO PERFORM MANY ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS OF LIFE:

GROWTH,

REPAIR,

NUTRIENT MOVEMENT,

REPRODUCTION, &

NUTRIENT TRANSPORT.

WHY IS RS NECESSARY?


• Cellular respiration is an example of a metabolic pathway

– A series of chemical reactions in cells –building or degradation process

• All of the reactions involved in cellular respiration can be grouped into three main stages

– Glycolysis

– The Krebs cycle

– Electron transport

– * WHAT IS METABOLISM?

The *Metabolic Pathway of Cellular Respiration

Glycolysis


• Glycolysis breaks a six-carbon glucose into two three-carbon molecules

– These molecules then donate high energy electrons to NAD+, forming NADH

• A molecule of glucose is split into two molecules of pyruvic acid

Stage 1: Glycolysis

Krebs Cycle


Stage 2: The Krebs Cycle

• The Krebs cycle completes the breakdown of sugar


• In the Krebs cycle, pyruvic acid from glycolysis is first “prepped” into a usable form, Acetyl-CoA

CO2


• The Krebs cycle extracts the energy of sugar by breaking the acetic acid molecules all the way down to CO2

– The cycle uses some of this energy to make ATP

– The cycle also forms NADH and FADH2

Electron Transport


Stage 3: Electron Transport

• Electron transport releases the energy your cells need to make the most of their ATP


• The molecules of electron transport chains are built into the inner membranes of mitochondria

– The chain functions as a chemical machine that uses energy released by the “fall” of electrons to pump hydrogen ions across the inner mitochondrial membrane

– These ions store potential energy

The Versatility of Cellular Respiration

• Cellular respiration can “burn” other kinds of molecules besides glucose

– Diverse types of carbohydrates

– Fats

– Proteins

FERMENTATION: ANAEROBIC HARVEST OF FOOD ENERGY

• Some of your cells can actually work for short periods without oxygen

– For example, muscle cells can produce ATP under anaerobic conditions

• Fermentation

– The anaerobic harvest of food energy


• Human muscle cells can make ATP with and without oxygen

– They have enough ATP to support activities such as quick sprinting for about 5 seconds

– A secondary supply of energy (creatine phosphate) can keep muscle cells going for another 10 seconds

– To keep running, your muscles must generate ATP by the anaerobic process of fermentation

Fermentation in Human Muscle Cells


• Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that provides ATP during fermentation

– Pyruvic acid is reduced by NADH, producing NAD+, which keeps glycolysis going

– In human muscle cells, lactic acid is a by-product
