Cellular Respiration is a complicated process that involves many step to convert nutrients, such as glucose, into ATP. Remember that ATP is the energy storage molecule that the cell can use. In order to give you a good understanding of cellular respiration I have compiled a few textbook chapters and articles that you should look through on your own time.
You will not need to know the in-depth analysis of what happens where there isn't enough oxygen so don't worry that we haven't covered anaerobic respiration or fermentation. You will have to know that some portions of the process are limited by oxygen. |
The notes that we took in class are available here. You will need to know the different steps and what is created at each step of the process. You will be responsible for knowing the names of the molecules if we put the names on this diagram. Any other molecule names will not be required. You should be able to walk me through the steps of cellular respiration without these notes.
