Series of reactions in which glucose is degraded to pyruvate; net profit of 2 ATPs; hydrogen atoms are transferred to carriers; can proceed anaerobically

Glucose, ATP, NAD+, Pi

Pyruvate, ATP, NADH

Pyruvate is degraded and combined with coenzyme A to form acetyl CoA; hydrogen atoms are transferred to carriers; CO2 is released

Pyruvate, coenzyme A, NAD+

Acetyl CoA, CO2, NADH

Series of reactions in which the acetyl portion of acetyl CoA is degraded to CO2; hydrogen atoms are transferred to carriers; ATP is synthesized

Acetyl CoA, H2O, NAD+, FAD, ADP, Pi CO2, NADH, FADH2, ATP

Chain of several electron transport molecules; electrons are passed along chain; released energy is used to form a proton gradient; ATP is synthesized as protons diffuse down the gradient; oxygen is final electron acceptor

NADPH, FADH2, O2, ADP, Pi

ATP, H2O, NAD+, FAD

The reactions produce ATP, which is then used to power other lifesustaining functions, including growth, repair and maintenance

Anaerobic respiration is the type of respiration through which cells can break down sugars to generate energy in the absence of oxygen

Aerobic respiration is the aerobic catabolism of nutrients to carbon dioxide, water, and energy, it involves an electron transport system in which molecular oxygen is the final electron acceptor.

During aerobic cellular respiration, glucose reacts with oxygen, forming ATP that can be used by cell.

During aerobic cellular respiration, glucose reacts with oxygen, forming ATP that can be used by the cell. Carbon dioxide and water are created as byproducts.

Aerobic respiration is far more energy-efficient than anaerobic respiration. Aerobic produces up to 38 ATP per glucose while Anaerobic processes yield only 2 ATP per glucose

The sustainability of Aerobic respiration is done when it can supply your muscles and other organs with enough oxygen to completely oxidize glucose

Anaerobic respiration is not sustainable in the long term, Because if it accumulates too many lactic acids, the cells will become acidic or it can be damaged. So that's why Lactic acid must be oxidized back into pyruvate or to the liver to be processed

The aerobic respiration process goes on continuously in the body of plants and animals.

Anaerobic respiration can be distinguished from that of aerobic respiration regarding the involvement of oxygen while converting the given resources such as glucose into energy.

Aerobic respiration Without the presence of oxygen, electrons would remain trapped and bound in the final step of the electron transport chain, preventing further reaction

anaerobic respiration does not need a oxygen.

aerobic and anaerobic respiration, has same part at the NADH molecule of the enzyme complex and must be restored to its NAD, oxidized state.

under anaerobic, oxygen-deficient conditions, NADH gets converted back to NAD through anaerobic mechanisms, whether homolactic or alcoholic fermentation.

Cellular respiration that proceeds in the presence of oxygen is aerobic respiration.

Cellular respiration that proceeds in the absence of oxygen is anaerobic respiration.
