    Cellular Respiration and

    Fermentation

    Chapter 9Overview: Life Is Work

    Living cells require energy from outsidesources

    Some animals, such as the chimpanzee, obtainenergy by eating plants, and some animals

    feed on other organisms that eat plants

    Energy flows into an ecosystem as sunlightand leaves as heat

    Photosynthesis generates O2 and organic

    molecules, which are used in cellular

    respiration

    Cells use chemical energy stored in organicmolecules to regenerate ATP, which powerswork

    Catabolic Pathways and Production of ATP

    The breakdown of organic molecules isexergonic

    Fermentation is a partial degradation ofsugars that occurs without O2

    Aerobic respiration consumes organicmolecules and O2 and yields ATP

    Anaerobic respiration is similar to aerobicrespiration but consumes compounds otherthan O2

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    Cellular respiration includes both aerobic andanaerobic respiration but is often used to referto aerobic respiration

    Although carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are

    all consumed as fuel, it is helpful to tracecellular respiration with the sugar glucose

    Redox Reactions: Oxidation and Reduction

    The transfer of electrons during chemicalreactions releases energy stored in organicmolecules

    This released energy is ultimately used to

    synthesize ATP

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    The Principle of Redox

    Chemical reactions that transfer electronsbetween reactants are called oxidation-reductionreactions, or redox reactions

    In oxidation, a substance loses electrons, or isoxidized

    In reduction, a substance gains electrons, or isreduced (the amount of positive charge isreduced)

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    The electron donor is called the reducingagent

    The electron receptor is called the oxidizingagent

    Some redox reactions do not transfer electronsbut change the electron sharing in covalentbonds

    An example is the reaction between methaneand O2

    Oxidation of Organic Fuel Molecules During

    Cellular Respiration

    During cellular respiration, the fuel (such asglucose) is oxidized, and O2 is reduced

    Stepwise Energy Harvest via NAD+ and the

    Electron Transport Chain

    In cellular respiration, glucose and other organicmolecules are broken down in a series of steps

    Electrons from organic compounds are usuallyfirst transferred to NAD+, a coenzyme

    As an electron acceptor, NAD+ functions as anoxidizing agent during cellular respiration

    Each NADH (the reduced form of NAD+)represents stored energy that is tapped to

    synthesize ATP

    Dehydrogenase

    NADH passes the electrons to the electrontransport chain

    Unlike an uncontrolled reaction, the electrontransport chain passes electrons in a series of

    steps instead of one explosive reaction

    O2 pulls electrons down the chain in an energy-yielding tumble

    The energy yielded is used to regenerate ATP

    The Stages of Cellular Respiration:

    A Preview

    Harvesting of energy from glucose has threestages

    Glycolysis (breaks down glucose into twomolecules of pyruvate)

    The citric acid cycle (completes thebreakdown of glucose)

    Oxidative phosphorylation (accounts for

    most of the ATP synthesis)

    Oxidativephosphorylation

    The process that generates most of the ATP iscalled oxidative phosphorylation because it ispowered by redox reactions

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    Oxidative phosphorylation accounts for almost90% of the ATP generated by cellularrespiration

    A smaller amount of ATP is formed in glycolysis

    and the citric acid cycle by substrate-levelphosphorylation

    For each molecule of glucose degraded to CO2and water by respiration, the cell makes up to

    32 molecules of ATP

    Concept 9.2: Glycolysis harvests chemical

    energy by oxidizing glucose to pyruvate

    Glycolysis (splitting of sugar) breaks downglucose into two molecules of pyruvate

    Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and has twomajor phases

    Energy investment phase

    Energy payoff phase

    Glycolysis occurs whether or not O2 is present

    Concept 9.3: After pyruvate is oxidized, the

    citric acid cycle completes the energy-

    yielding oxidation of organic molecules

    In the presence of O2, pyruvate enters themitochondrion (in eukaryotic cells) where theoxidation of glucose is completed

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    Oxidation of Pyruvate to Acetyl CoA

    Before the citric acid cycle can begin, pyruvatemust be converted to acetyl Coenzyme A(acetyl CoA), which links glycolysis to the citric

    acid cycle

    This step is carried out by a multienzymecomplex that catalyses three reactions

    The citric acid cycle, also called the Krebs

    Concept 9.4: During oxidative

    phosphorylation, chemiosmosis couples

    electron transport to ATP synthesis

    Following glycolysis and the citric acid cycle,NADH and FADH2 account for most of theenergy extracted from food

    These two electron carriers donate electrons to

    the electron transport chain, which powers ATPsynthesis via oxidative phosphorylation

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    The Pathway of Electron Transport

    The electron transport chain is in the innermembrane (cristae) of the mitochondrion

    Most of the chains components are proteins,

    which exist in multiprotein complexes

    The carriers alternate reduced and oxidizedstates as they accept and donate electrons

    Electrons drop in free energy as they go downthe chain and are finally passed to O2, forming

    H2O

    Electrons are transferred from NADH or FADH2

    to the electron transport chain Electrons are passed through a number of

    proteins including cytochromes (each with an

    iron atom) to O2

    The electron transport chain generates no ATPdirectly

    It breaks the large free-energy drop from foodto O2 into smaller steps that release energy inmanageable amounts

    Chemiosmosis: The Energy-Coupling

    Mechanism

    Electron transfer in the electron transport chain

    causes proteins to pump H+

    from themitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space

    H+ then moves back across the membrane,

    passing through the proton, ATP synthase

    ATP synthase uses the exergonic flow of H+ todrive phosphorylation of ATP

    This is an example of chemiosmosis, the use ofenergy in a H+ gradient to drive cellular work

    An Accounting of ATP Production by

    Cellular Respiration

    During cellular respiration, most energy flowsin this sequence:

    glucose NADH electron transport chain

    proton-motive force ATP

    About 34% of the energy in a glucose moleculeis transferred to ATP during cellular respiration,making about 32 ATP

    There are several reasons why the number ofATP is not known exactly

    Concept 9.5: Fermentation and anaerobic

    respiration enable cells to produce ATP

    without the use of oxygen

    Most cellular respiration requires O2 to produceATP

    Without O2, the electron transport chain willcease to operate

    In that case, glycolysis couples withfermentation or anaerobic respiration to

    produce ATP

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    Anaerobic respiration uses an electrontransport chain with a final electron acceptorother than O

    2, for example sulfate

    Fermentation uses substrate-level

    phosphorylation instead of an electrontransport chain to generate ATP

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    Types of Fermentation

    Fermentation consists of glycolysis plusreactions that regenerate NAD+, which can bereused by glycolysis

    Two common types are alcohol fermentation

    and lactic acid fermentation

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    In alcohol fermentation, pyruvate is convertedto ethanol in two steps, with the first releasingCO2

    Alcohol fermentation by yeast is used in

    brewing, winemaking, and baking

    Comparing Fermentation with Anaerobic

    and Aerobic Respiration

    All use glycolysis (net ATP =2) to oxidize glucoseand harvest chemical energy of food

    In all three, NAD+ is the oxidizing agent thataccepts electrons during glycolysis

    The processes have different final electronacceptors: an organic molecule (such as pyruvateor acetaldehyde) in fermentation and O2 in cellularrespiration

    Cellular respiration produces 32 ATP per glucosemolecule; fermentation produces 2 ATP perglucose molecule

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    Obligate anaerobes carry out fermentation or

    anaerobic respiration and cannot survive in thepresence of O2

    Yeast and many bacteria are facultative

    anaerobes, meaning that they can surviveusing either fermentation or cellular respiration

    In a facultative anaerobe, pyruvate is a fork in

    the metabolic road that leads to two alternativecatabolic routes

    The Evolutionary Significance of Glycolysis

    Ancient prokaryotes are thought to have usedglycolysis long before there was oxygen in theatmosphere

    Very little O2 was available in the atmosphere

    until about 2.7 billion years ago, so earlyprokaryotes likely used only glycolysis togenerate ATP

    Glycolysis is a very ancient process

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    Concept 9.6: Glycolysis and the citric acid

    cycle connect to many other metabolic

    pathways

    Gycolysis and the citric acid cycle are majorintersections to various catabolic and anabolicpathways

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    The Versatility of Catabolism

    Catabolic pathways funnel electrons from manykinds of organic molecules into cellularrespiration

    Glycolysis accepts a wide range of

    carbohydrates

    Proteins must be digested to amino acids;amino groups can feed glycolysis or the citricacid cycle

    2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

    Fats are digested to glycerol (used inglycolysis) and fatty acids (used in generatingacetyl CoA)

    Fatty acids are broken down by beta oxidation

    and yield acetyl CoA

    An oxidized gram of fat produces more thantwice as much ATP as an oxidized gram ofcarbohydrate

    Regulation of Cellular Respiration via

    Feedback Mechanisms

    Feedback inhibition is the most common

    mechanism for control If ATP concentration begins to drop,

    respiration speeds up; when there is plenty

    of ATP, respiration slows down

    Control of catabolism is based mainly onregulating the activity of enzymes atstrategic points in the catabolic pathway
