Cellular Respiration Chemical Process carried out by all organisms to…

- - - - Energy released by breaking a phosphate off ATP used for work and produces ADP + Phosphate
    - - Cellular respiration takes energy from food and uses it reattach a phosphate onto ADP turning it into charged ATP
- - - - happens outside the mitochondria
        
        Takes glucose and breaks it, turning it into 2 molecules of pyruvate yields 2 net ATPs and electron carriers (NADH)
    - - happens inside the mitochondria
        
        Takes the Pyruvate from glycolysis and extracts 2 ATPs and a lot of electron carriers (NADH and FADH2) produces Carbon Dioxide
    - - Happens inside the mitochondria on the inner membrane (cristae)
        
        Electrons from the electron carriers brought to the electron transport chain (ETC) to pump H+ ions into the intermembrane space causing a gradient to form.
        
        Oxygen used to clear the electrons from the chain so more electrons can be accepted; water is formed
        
        Hydrogen ions in inner membrane space flow through the ATP synthase enzyme (following the concentration gradient). Energy of their movement used to make ATP... a lot 32-34 per original glucose
- - - - Lactic Acid fermentation - Animals
      - Alcoholic fermentation - prokaryotes and protists
