Let’s Review
4. What is the primary environment where C4 plants thrive?
A) Temperate and humid B) Arid and hot
C) Hot, sunny, and dry D) Cold and wet
5. Which of the following statements about the ATP-ADP cycle is true?
A) It is a one-time process B) It continuously cycles between ATP and ADP
C) It only occurs in muscle cells D) It does not involve energy transfer

What is the primary product of the Calvin cycle that can be used to form
glucose?
A) Ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) B) 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA)
C) Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) D) Oxaloacetate
A.Catabolic pathways yield energy by oxidizing
organic fuels.

1. Cells break down glucose and other organic fuels to


yield chemical energy in the form of ATP.
Where do living organisms get this chemical energy?

- Food consists of organic molecules that store


energy in their chemical bonds. Glucose is a simple
carbohydrate with the chemical formula C6H12O6

How much energy does it cost to do your body’s work?

- A single cell uses about 10 million ATP molecules


per second and recycles all of its ATP molecules
about every 20-30 seconds.
An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food.
“self” (auto) “feeder” (troph).
Plants are the best-known autotrophs

Plants are also photoautotrophs, a type of autotroph that uses sunlight and carbon
from carbon dioxide to synthesize chemical energy in the form of carbohydrates.

Heterotrophs are organisms incapable of photosynthesis that must therefore obtain


energy and carbon from food by consuming other organisms.
“other” (hetero) “feeder” (troph),
What is
Cellular Respiration?
- Cellular Respiration is a process of completely
breaking down glucose and other organic
materials

Cellular respiration occurs in the cells of all living things,


both autotrophs and heterotrophs.
Answer me!
1. What is an autotroph?

✓ An organism that can produce its own food.


2. What do the Greek roots of the word 'autotroph' mean?

✓ 'Self' (auto) 'feeder' (troph).


3. What are the best-known autotrophs?
✓ Plants.

4. What do the Greek roots of the word 'heterotroph' mean?


✓ 'Other' (hetero) 'feeder' (troph).
5. Who are considered heterotrophs?
✓ Humans and all animals.
Answer me!
6. What is cellular respiration?

✓ A process of completely breaking down glucose and other


organic materials to extract energy.
7. What is the primary energy currency of cells?

✓ ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

8. What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?


• aerobic respiration - uses oxygen as reactant

Stages of Aerobic Respiration


01 02
Glycolysis Pyruvate Oxidation
(Acetyl CoA Formation

03 04
Citric Acid Cycle (Krebs Oxidation Phosphorylation (Electron
Cycle) Transport and chemiosmosis
How Much ATP Produced?

Glycolysis produces 2 ATP molecules,


and the Krebs cycle produces 2 more.
Electron transport from the molecules of NADH and FADH2 made from
glycolysis,
the transformation of pyruvate, and the Krebs cycle creates as many as 32
more ATP molecules.
Therefore, a total of up to 36 molecules of ATP
• anaerobic respiration uses substances (other than
oxygen) as reactants

• Anaerobic respiration is less efficient than aerobic


respiration; it produces less ATP per glucose molecule.
Key Differences:
Fermentation
a. Fermentation is a process harvesting chemical energy
without using either oxygen or any electron transport
chain—in other words, without cellular respiration.
Fermentation: An Alternative Energy Pathway

● Fermentation is a metabolic process that allows cells to


generate a small amount of ATP (energy) in the absence
of oxygen and without using an electron transport chain.

● Instead of oxygen, fermentation uses an organic molecule


within the cell as the final electron acceptor.
Types of Fermentation:

Lactic Acid Alcoholic


Fermentation: Fermentation:
Pyruvate is converted to Pyruvate is converted to
lactic acid. ethanol and carbon
dioxide.
Key Points:
● Low ATP Yield: Fermentation produces far
less ATP than cellular respiration.
● Byproducts: Fermentation produces
byproducts like lactic acid or ethanol, which
can have various effects on the cell or
organism.
