How Your Body Makes Energy: Cellular Respiration and More!

Cellular respiration is a complex metabolic process that breaks down glucose to produce energy in the form of ATP through both aerobic and anaerobic processes in mitochondrial function.

• The process involves multiple stages including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and electron transport chain, generating up to 38 ATP molecules from one glucose molecule

Glycolysis ATP production and metabolic pathways begin in the cytoplasm, while later stages occur within the mitochondria

• Both aerobic and anaerobic pathways are possible, with fermentation serving as an alternative when oxygen is unavailable

• The process involves important redox reactions where glucose is oxidized and oxygen is reduced

Page 4: Energy Production and Chemiosmosis

This page focuses on the detailed mechanisms of ATP production and the chemiosmosis process.

Definition: Chemiosmosis is the process where proton gradients drive ATP synthesis through ATP synthase.

Example: One glucose molecule yields 36-38 ATP molecules through complete aerobic respiration.

Highlight: The electron transport chain uses oxygen as the final electron acceptor, completing the energy production process.

Quote: "The ATP that is produced during cellular respiration is used for maintaining cellular processes and energy requirements."

Electron Transport Chain and ATP Production

This section covers the electron transport chain and its role in ATP production.

Definition: The electron transport chain is a series of proteins that transfer electrons to create a proton gradient.

Highlight: Oxygen serves as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain.

Example: The process of chemiosmosis generates 32-34 ATP molecules through the electron transport chain.

Fermentation and Anaerobic Processes

This section explains fermentation as an alternative pathway when oxygen is unavailable.

Definition: Fermentation is an anaerobic process that reduces pyruvate to either lactate or ethanol.

Example: In muscle cells, pyruvate is converted to lactate during intense exercise.

Highlight: Fermentation produces only 2 ATP molecules but provides quick energy when needed.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Samantha Klich

Android user

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

Brad T

Not only did it help me find the answer but it also showed me alternative ways to solve it. I was horrible in math and science but now I have an a in both subjects. Thanks for the help🤍🤍

David K

iOS user

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

In school I was really bad at maths but thanks to the app, I am doing better now. I am so grateful that you made the app.

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend

Best app if you're in Highschool or Junior high. I have been using this app for 2 school years and it's the best, it's good if you don't have anyone to help you with school work.😋🩷🎀

THE QUIZES AND FLASHCARDS ARE SO USEFUL AND I LOVE THE SCHOOLGPT. IT ALSO IS LITREALLY LIKE CHATGPT BUT SMARTER!! HELPED ME WITH MY MASCARA PROBLEMS TOO!! AS WELL AS MY REAL SUBJECTS ! DUHHH 😍😁😲🤑💗✨🎀😮

This app is phenomenal down to the correct info and the various topics you can study! I greatly recommend it for people who struggle with procrastination and those who need homework help. It has been perfectly accurate for world 1 history as far as I’ve seen! Geometry too!
