Harvesting stored energy § Energy is stored in organic molecules carbohydrates, fats, proteins Heterotrophs eat these organic molecules food u digest organic molecules to get… u § § raw materials for synthesis § fuels for energy w controlled release of energy w “burning” fuels in a series of step-by-step enzyme-controlled reactions AP Biology

How do we harvest energy from fuels? § Digest large molecules into smaller ones u break bonds & move electrons from one molecule to another § as electrons move they “carry energy” with them § that energy is stored in another bond, released as heat or harvested to make ATP loses e- gains e- + oxidized reduced + + eoxidation AP Biology e- – ereduction redox

Cellular respiration – Draw This AP Biology

Glycolysis § Breaking down glucose u “glyco – lysis” (splitting sugar) glucose pyruvate 2 x 3 C 6 C u ancient pathway which harvests energy § where energy transfer first evolved § transfer energy from organic molecules to ATP § still is starting point for ALL cellular respiration u but it’s inefficient § generate only 2 ATP for every 1 glucose u occurs in cytosol AP Biology That’s not enough ATP for me! In the cytosol? Why does that make evolutionary sense?

Evolutionary perspective § Prokaryotes u first cells had no organelles Enzymes of glycolysis are “well-conserved” § Anaerobic atmosphere u u life on Earth first evolved without free oxygen (O 2) in atmosphere energy had to be captured from organic molecules in absence of O 2 § Prokaryotes that evolved glycolysis are ancestors of all modern life u AP Biology ALL cells still utilize glycolysis You mean we’re related?
