RESPIRATION THE KEY

TO LIFE
 TYPES OF RESPIRATION

ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION AEROBIC RESPIRATION

 RESPIRATION

• THE TWO TYPES OF RESPIRATION

ARE DISTINGUISDED BY THE
PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF
OXYGEN
• NOT ALL LIVING THINGS NEED
OXYGEN TO SURVIVE AND EVEN
THOSE WHO DO CAN OFTN
CONTINUE CELLULAR (LIVING
CELL) ACTIVIES WITH SMALL
AMOUNTS OF OXYGEN PRESENT.
 AEROBIC
RESPIRATION
• OCCURS IN THE PRESENCE OF OXYGEN
• THEY ARE 4 STAGES AEROBIC REPIRATION – GLYCOLYSIS
(BREAKDOWN OF GLUCOSE), FORMATION OF ACETYL
COENZYME A(PYRUVATE IS BROUGHT INTO THE
MITOCHONDRIA TO BE OXIDIZED), THE CITRIC ACID
CYCLE(OXALOACETATE COMBINES WITH THE ACETYL
COENZYME A), AND THE ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN (THE
NADH (NICOTINAMIDE ADENINE DINUCLEOTIDE) AND FADH
(FLAVIN ADENINE DINUCLEOTIDE) DONATE THEIR
ELECTRONS TO MAKE LARGE AMOUNTS OF ATP).
• EVERY TIME A HYDROGEN ATOM IS RELEASED AN
ELECTRON ENTERS THE ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN. THIS
ALLOWS AEROBIC REPIRATION TO PRODUCE MPR ENERGY
IN THE FORM OF ATP THAN ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION.
• OXYGEN IS IMPORTANT TO THIS PROCESS BECASE IT IS THE
FINAL ACCPETOR IN THE ELECTRON CHAIN; WITHOUT IT
THE PROCESS WOULD STOP.
 AEROBIC
RESPIRATION

• OCCURS IN THE MITOCHONDRIA OF CELLS

• PRODUCES A LOT OF ATP PER GLUCOSE
MOLCULE
• USED WHEN HEART RATE AND BREATHING
RATE RISE
• WHEN CHEMICALLY BREAKING DOWN
GLUCOSE COMPLETELY, THIS PROCESS
RELEASES LARGE AMOUNT OF ENERGY.
 ANAEROBIC
RESPIRATION
• TAKES PLACE IN THE ABSNECE OF OXYGEN
• OCCURS IN THE CYTPLASM OF YEAST AND MUSCLE CELLS
• USED DURING THE FIRST 1-2 MINUTES OF ESERCISE
• PREODUCE LESS ATP PER GLUCOSE MOLECULE

EXAMPLE: OUR MUSCLES RESORT TO ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION

WHEN OXGEN IS NOT DELIVERED TO THEM FAST ENOUGH
 THEY ARE TWO TYPES OF
ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION
LACTIC ACID FERMENTATION ALCOHOL FERMENTATION
