Cellular Respiration

Anaerobic

Aerobic

Respiration in Cellular level

Function

Cellular respiration is the process through which cells convert fuel into energy and nutrients.

A respiration without the presence of the oxygen

Alcoholic Respiration

Lactic Acid Respiration

A respiration with the presence of oxygen

When need energy but no oxygen (e.g in rigorous training)

Anaerobic respiration found in yeast or in alcohol making

Breakdown glucose to lactic acid, found in anaerobic respiration in muscle

C6H12O6 --> 2 C3H6O3

Much less energy vs aerobic

Aerobic respiration is much more efficient, and produces ATP much more quickly, than anaerobic respiration.

Step

  1. Krebs cycle
  1. Electron transport chain(ETC)
  1. Glycolisis
  1. Chemiosmosis

the breakdown of glucose by enzymes

generates energy through the oxidation of acetate

transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors and couples this electron transfer with the transfer of protons (H + ions) across a membrane.

involved in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

Aerobic respiration is the process of utilisation of oxygen to breakdown glucose, amino acids, fatty acids to produce ATP.
