BIO311C 1nd Edition Lecture 20 Outline of Last Lecture Cellular respirationOutline of Current Lecture Cellular respiration & Glycolysis Current LectureOxidation:Loss of electrons Reduction: Gain of electrons These redox reactions coverts low energy molecule to high energy molecule Reduced molecule of glucose is fully oxidized to CO2IEA’s oxidized: Oxygen is reduced Shit ton of energy released IEA (Intermediate electron acceptor)Toggle between reduced and oxidized Reduced: have more potential energy Glucose: reduction of IEAs: phosphorylation of ATP Oxidation of IEAs power phosphorylation of ATP which is known as “oxidative phosphorylation”All cells perform glycolysis ATP leaves cells and produces energy to perform work for the body These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.Highly reduced molecules have the most potential energy because they have the highest number of C-H bonds Glycolysis: C6H12O6 + 2ADP + 2Pi + 2NADH => 2 pyruvate + 2ATP + 2NADH Pyruvate decarboxylation:Carboxyl group removed and oxidized NADH is
