Chapter 9: Cellular Respiration Objectives The student is responsible for: 1. The definitions of all bold faced words in the chapter 2. Knowing the entire chapter. The student is not responsible for: 1. Memorizing or drawing the structures of glycolysis or Kreb’s cycle

Principles of Energy Harvest Fermentation: decomposition of glucose without the use of oxygen Cellular Respiration: oxygen is a reactant when glucose is broken down

Figure 9. 1 Energy flow and chemical recycling in ecosystems There is an integral relationship between photosynthesis and respiration. The production of ATP is an exergonic process

Figure 9. x 1 ATP Adenosine Triphosphate ATP -> ADP + Pi ADP AMP + Pi

Figure 9. 2 A review of how ATP drives cellular work Why do we care so much about ATP?

Figure 9. 3 Methane combustion as an energy-yielding redox reaction Oxidizing Agent: that substance that is being reduced. O is “going” from O (no charge) to O 2 -. Reducing Agent: that substance that is being oxidized. C is gaining oxygen.

Figure 9. 19 The catabolism of various food molecules Various foods can be oxidized to produce ATP.

Figure 9. 4 NAD+ as an electron shuttle The molecule that is used to move hydrogen ions throughout the oxidation of food is NAD+. Therefore NAD+ is an oxidizing agent. NAD+ + H+ NADH

Figure 9. 5 An introduction to electron transport chains

Figure 9. 6 An overview of cellular respiration (Layer 1) But if we could get this pyruvate into the mitochondria we could make a whole lot more ATP!!

Figure 9. 6 An overview of cellular respiration (Layer 3)

Figure 9. 7 Substrate-level phosphorylation What is this substratelevel phosphorylation? This is when a phosphate group is moved from an organic compound to ADP. What is oxidative phosphorylation? When electrons and H+ are used to make ATP.

Figure 9. 8 The energy input and output of glycolysis Couldn’t these NADH’s that are made be used to make ATP?

Figure 9. 10 Conversion of pyruvate to acetyl Co. A, the junction between glycolysis and the Krebs cycle Could the NADH produced here be used to make ATP?

Figure 9. 11 A closer look at the Krebs cycle (Layer 1) Keep track of the number of carbons!!

Figure 9. 11 A closer look at the Krebs cycle (Layer 2) More NADHs!!!

Figure 9. 12 A summary of the Krebs cycle

Figure 9. 13 Free-energy change during electron transport NADH and FADH 2 deliver electrons to different locations in the ETC. The role of oxygen is to serve as a hydrogen ion acceptor to form water.

Figure 9. 14 ATP synthase, a molecular mill ATP Synthase Chemiosmosis: the coupling of the movement of H+ through a protein complex (ATP Synthase) making ATP.

Figure 9. 15 Chemiosmosis couples the electron transport chain to ATP synthesis A Proton-Motive Force is produced

Figure 9. 16 Review: how each molecule of glucose yields many ATP molecules during cellular respiration

Figure 9. 17 a Fermentation

Figure 9. 17 b Fermentation

Figure 9. 18 Pyruvate as a key juncture in catabolism

Figure 9. 19 The catabolism of various food molecules Power Bars? Luna Bars? Promax? Goo?

Versatility of Catabolism Use of Proteins 1. Proteins amino acids and then the amino acids must have their amino groups removed before being used as an energy source. So all the energy bars that have amino acids in them are at least one step closer to being used for energy than a protein. 2. Fats must go through beta oxidation which takes a fat and breaks off 2 carbon fragments from the fatty acids and these 2 carbon fragments enter at acetyl-Co. A.

The Evolutionary Significance of Glycolysis Earliest organisms were in an anaerobic environment (3. 5 billion yrs ago) Glycolysis was probably used as an energy making process Oxygen accumulated about 2. 7 billion years ago Glycolysis is the most widespread pathway amongst organisms suggesting it evolved early on. Glycolysis requires only the cytoplasm and membrane-bound organelles were not present until eukaryotic cells appeared (2 billion years after prokaryotes)
