- Cellular respiration is the process of breaking down carbon compounds in the mitochondria to produce ATP
- Glycolysis is the first step, occurring in the cytosol and creating 2 pyruvate molecules, 4 ATP, and 2 NADH
- The Krebs cycle involves further reactions, producing NADH, FADH2, and 1 ATP
- The Electron Transport Chain and Oxidative Phosphorylation occur in the mitochondria's cristae
- Understanding cellular respiration is crucial for comprehending metabolic processes in living organisms
