How Cells Harvest Chemical Energy Chapter 9 How Cells Harvest Chemical Energy Introduction to Cell Metabolism Glycolysis Aerobic Cell Respiration Anaerobic Cell Respiration

Breathing and Cell Respiration are related CO2 Lungs Muscle cells carrying out CO2 Bloodstream O2 CELLULAR RESPIRATION Sugar + O2  ATP + CO2 + H2O

Cellular Respiration uses oxygen and glucose to produce Carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. Glucose Oxygen gas Carbon dioxide Water Energy

How efficient is cell respiration? Energy released from glucose banked in ATP Energy released from glucose (as heat and light) Gasoline energy converted to movement 100% About 40% 25% Burning glucose in an experiment “Burning” glucose in cellular respiration Burning gasoline in an auto engine

Reduction and Oxidation OILRIG Oxidation is losing electrons Reduction is gaining electrons Loss of hydrogen atoms Energy Glucose Gain of hydrogen atoms Glucose gives off energy and is oxidized

Reduction and Oxidation OILRIG Gain or loss of electrons is often in the form of hydrogen. The hydrogen is then passed to a coenzyme such as NAD+

Reduction and Oxidation What are some common co-enzymes? NAD+ and FAD NAD+ + 2 H  NADH + H+ FAD + 2 H  FADH2 Remember that H = 2 electrons and 2H+

Reduction and Oxidation These co-enzymes are very important for cell respiration because they transfer high-energy electrons to electron transport systems (ETS).

Reduction and Oxidation As the electrons move from carrier to carrier, energy is released in small quantities. Electron transport system (ETS)

Generation of ATP There are two ways to generate ATP Chemiosmosis Substrate-Level Phosphorylation

Generation of ATP Chemiosmosis Cells use the energy released by “falling” electrons in the ETS to pump H+ ions across a membrane Uses the enzyme ATP synthase.

Generation of ATP Chemiosmosis

Generation of ATP Substrate Level Phosphorylation Enzyme ATP can also be made by transferring phosphate groups from organic molecules to ADP Adenosine substrate Adenosine product Figure 6.7B
