CHEMICAL ENERGY AND FOOD
Food provides organisms with energy 1 g of sugar = 3811 calories of heat energy A calorie= amount of energy needed to raise
the temperature of 1 gram of water, 1 degree Celsius
The Calorie on nutrition labels is a Kilocalorie How do we covert food into energy?
CELLULAR RESPIRATION
Process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of Oxygen.
GLYCOLYSIS
One molecule of glucose is broken in half, producing two molecules of pyruvic acid (a 3-Carbon compound)
Occurs in cytoplasm, requires some energy from cell
Net gain of 2 ATP molecules Happens Fast Requires no oxygen Next step: Fermentation or Krebs Cycle
#1
IF NO OXYGEN IS PRESENT…
FERMENTATION Fermentation releases energy from
food and makes ATP without oxygen= ANAEROBIC
2 types of fermentation—Alcoholic and Lactic Acid
#2a
ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION
Yeasts and other microbes carry out alcoholic fermentation
Pyruvic acid + NADH alcohol + CO2 + Nad+
Fermentation Demo
LACTIC ACID FERMENTATION
Used by organisms other than yeasts and microbes
Pyruvic acid + NADH - lactic acid + NAD+
LACTIC ACID
Lactic acid is produced in your muscles during rapid exercise (limited oxygen present!)
Your muscles quickly run out of oxygen when exercising strenuously
Lactic Acid is produced and builds up causing pain, fatigue
KREBS CYCLE—OXYGEN PRESENT
If oxygen is present at the end of glycolysis, cellular respiration moves to the Krebs Cycle
With oxygen= AEROBIC Pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide and energy!
High energy electrons are passed onto the Electron Transport Chain…
#2b
ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN
Final step of Cellular Respiration Uses the electrons produced in the Krebs Cycle to covert them into ADP and ATP.
LOTS of energy is created!
