Respiration by Mind Map: Respiration

1. Glycolysis

1.1. happens in the cytoplasm

1.2. starts off with 6 carbon sugars

1.2.1. plus NAD+ (energy to snap the carbon in half)

1.2.1.1. equals 2ATP + 2 pyruvic acid

1.3. Anaerobic Respiration (Fermentation)

1.3.1. 2 pyruvic acid + NADH

1.3.1.1. equals lactic acid/alcohol + NADH+/NAD+ + 2ATP

1.3.2. happens in the cytoplasm

1.4. Aerobic Respiration (with oxygen)

1.4.1. 3 steps

1.4.1.1. pyruvic acid turns into Acetyl CoA

1.4.1.1.1. occurs in mitochondria (inter membrane)

1.4.1.2. krebs cycle

1.4.1.2.1. happens in matrix

1.4.1.2.2. makes 4 CO2 (carbon dioxide) per glucose that is released

1.4.1.2.3. makes 6NADH and 6 2FADH2 that will be used in ETC

1.4.1.2.4. makes 2ATP

1.4.1.3. electron transport chain (ETC)

1.4.1.3.1. occurs in the inner membrane

2. 6O2 + C6H12O6 = 6CO2 + ATP + 6H2O
