Muscle Fibers
–The muscles that move our legs contain
two main types of muscle fibers:
• Slow twitch fibers
–Generate less power
–Last longer
–Generate ATP using oxygen
• Fast twitch fibers
–Generate more power
–Fatigue much more quickly
–Can generate ATP without using oxygen

ENERGY FLOW AND CHEMICAL
CYCLING IN THE BIOSPHERE
– Animals depend on plants to convert solar
energy to:
• Chemical energy of sugars
• Other molecules we consume as food
– Photosynthesis:
• Uses light energy from the sun to power a chemical process
that makes organic molecules.

Producers and Consumers
– Plants and other autotrophs (self-feeders):
• Make their own organic matter from inorganic
nutrients.
– Heterotrophs (other-feeders):
• Include humans and other animals that cannot
make organic molecules from inorganic ones.
– Autotrophs are producers because ecosystems
depend upon them for food.
– Heterotrophs are consumers because they eat
plants or other animals.

Chemical Cycling between Photosynthesis
and Cellular Respiration
– The ingredients for photosynthesis are carbon dioxide
and water.
• CO2 is obtained from the air by a plant’s leaves.
• H2O is obtained from the damp soil by a plant’s roots.
– Chloroplasts in the cells of leaves:
• Use light energy to rearrange the atoms of CO2 and H2O,
which produces
– Sugars (such as glucose)
– Other organic molecules
– Oxygen

Cellular Respiration
– Plant and animal cells perform cellular
respiration, a chemical process that:
• Primarily occurs in mitochondria
• Harvests energy stored in organic molecules
• Uses oxygen
• Generates ATP
– The waste products of cellular respiration are:
• CO2 and H2O
• Used in photosynthesis

AEROBIC HARVEST OF FOOD ENERGY
– Cellular respiration is:
• The main way that chemical energy is harvested
from food and converted to ATP
• An aerobic process—it requires oxygen

CELLULAR RESPIRATION:
AEROBIC HARVEST OF FOOD ENERGY
–Cellular respiration and breathing are
closely related.
• Cellular respiration requires a cell to
exchange gases with its surroundings.
–Cells take in oxygen gas.
–Cells release waste carbon dioxide gas.
• Breathing exchanges these same gases
between the blood and outside air.

The Role of Oxygen in
Cellular Respiration
– Cellular respiration can produce up to 38 ATP
molecules for each glucose molecule
consumed.
– During cellular respiration, hydrogen and its
bonding electrons change partners.
• Hydrogen and its electrons go from sugar to
oxygen, forming water.
• This hydrogen transfer is why oxygen is so vital to
cellular respiration.
Laua Coronado

Redox Reactions
– Chemical reactions that transfer electrons
from one substance to another are called:
• Oxidation-reduction reactions or
• Redox reactions for short
– The loss of electrons during a redox reaction is called
oxidation.
– The acceptance of electrons during a redox reaction
is called reduction.
– During cellular respiration glucose is oxidized while
oxygen is reduced.

Why does electron transfer to oxygen
release energy?
• When electrons move from glucose to oxygen, it is
as though the electrons were falling.
• This “fall” of electrons releases energy during
cellular respiration.
• Cellular respiration is:
–A controlled fall of electrons
–A stepwise cascade much like going down a
staircase

NADH and Electron Transport Chains
– The path that electrons take on their way down from
glucose to oxygen involves many steps.
– The first step is an electron acceptor called NAD+.
• The transfer of electrons from organic fuel to NAD+
reduces it to NADH.
– The rest of the path consists of an electron transport
chain, which:
• Involves a series of redox reactions
• Ultimately leads to the production of large amounts of
ATP

An Overview of Cellular Respiration
– Cellular respiration:
• Is an example of a metabolic pathway, which is a
series of chemical reactions in cells
– All of the reactions involved in cellular
respiration can be grouped into three main
stages:
• Glycolysis
• The citric acid cycle
• Electron transport

The Three Stages of Cellular Respiration
– Stage 1: Glycolysis
• A six-carbon glucose molecule is split in half to form
two molecules of pyruvic acid.
• These two molecules then donate high energy electrons
to NAD+, forming NADH.
• Three steps
– Uses two ATP molecules per glucose to split the sixcarbon glucose
– Makes four additional ATP directly when enzymes
transfer phosphate groups from fuel molecules to ADP
• Produces a net of two molecules of ATP per glucose
molecule.

Stage 2: The Citric Acid Cycle
– Completes the breakdown of sugar.
– In the citric acid cycle, pyruvic acid from
glycolysis is first “prepped.”
– The citric acid cycle:
• Extracts the energy of sugar by breaking the acetic
acid molecules all the way down to CO2
• Uses some of this energy to make ATP
• Forms NADH and FADH2

Stage 3: Electron Transport
– Releases the energy your cells need to make the
most of their ATP.
– The molecules of the electron transport chain
are built into the inner membranes of
mitochondria.
• The chain functions as a chemical machine that uses
energy released by the “fall” of electrons to pump
hydrogen ions across the inner mitochondrial
membrane.
• These ions store potential energy.
Laua Coronado
Chap 6
Bio 10
Stage 3: Electron Transport
– When the hydrogen ions flow back through the
membrane, they release energy.
• The hydrogen ions flow through ATP
synthase.
• ATP synthase:
–Takes the energy from this flow
–Synthesizes ATP

FERMENTATION: ANAEROBIC HARVEST
OF FOOD ENERGY
– Some of your cells can actually work for short periods
without oxygen.
– Fermentation is the anaerobic (without oxygen)
harvest of food energy.
– After functioning anaerobically for about 15 seconds:
• Muscle cells will begin to generate ATP by the process of
fermentation
– Fermentation relies on glycolysis to produce ATP.

– Glycolysis:
• Does not require oxygen
• Produces two ATP molecules for each glucose
broken down to pyruvic acid
– Pyruvic acid, produced by glycolysis, is
• Reduced by NADH, producing NAD+, which keeps
glycolysis going.
– In human muscle cells, lactic acid is a byproduct.

The Process of Science:
Does Lactic Acid Buildup Cause Muscle Burn?
– Observation: Muscles produce lactic acid under
anaerobic conditions.
– Question: Does the buildup of lactic acid cause muscle
fatigue?
– Hypothesis: The buildup of lactic acid would cause
muscle activity to stop.
– Experiment: Tested frog muscles under conditions
when lactic acid could and could not diffuse away.

The Process of Science:
Does Lactic Acid Buildup Cause Muscle Burn?
– Results: When lactic acid could diffuse away,
performance improved greatly.
– Conclusion: Lactic acid accumulation is the primary
cause of failure in muscle tissue.
– However, recent evidence suggests that the role of
lactic acid in muscle function remains unclear.

Evolution Connection:
Life before and after Oxygen
– Glycolysis could be used by ancient bacteria to make
ATP when little oxygen was available, and before
organelles evolved.

• Occurs in almost all organisms
• Is a metabolic heirloom of the first stage in the
breakdown of organic molecules
