Respiration provides energy from food

• Aerobic respiration requires oxygen

• Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen

Anaerobic Respiration• No oxygen is needed.• Some small organisms do this.• Other cells that do this include

human muscle cells during times of low oxygen.

• Fermentation often follows.• Glycolysis occurs in all cells.• Provides only a little energy – 2 ATP net gain.

• Occurs in cytoplasm of all cells.• Breaks down glucose incompletely.• Provides the cell with a net gain of only

2 ATP.• Is often followed by fermentation.

anAerobic Respiration (Glycolysis) can be

followed by Fermentation

• Muscle cells – further break down pyruvate into lactic acid – but this doesn’t provide any additional ATP. – Lactic acid is toxic and causes muscle aches.

When the physical exertion ends (you collapse), your body will clear itself of the toxins.

Yeast carry out Alcoholic Fermentation

• After glycolysis, yeast further breaks down pyruvate to CO2 and alcohol. – The CO2 bubbles off (making bread rise and

bubbles in drinks).

– The alcohol is given off by the yeast as a waste.
