  • Comparing Aerobic Vs. Anaerobic Respiration
    Comparing Aerobic vs. Anaerobic Respiration Objective: Students will compare the two types of cellular respiration: aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration (fermentation). Students will note similarities and differences between the two processes including when, where, and how each process occurs. Students will develop a concept map using Inspiration indicating the criteria for aerobic and anaerobic respiration. This concept map will indicate: Three similarities between the two processes. Two types of cells that perform each process. Location in the cell where each process occurs. Oxygen requirements for each process. Reactants and products for each process. Energy output for each process. Two different types of anaerobic respiration. Reactants and products for each. Types of cells that perform each process. Introduction: This activity will follow a fermentation (anaerobic respiration) lab using yeast. This lab will address the process of alcoholic fermentation. Students will perform push-ups to experience lactic acid build-up in muscle cells. These activities will gain interest in the process of anaerobic respiration. Students will have already studied the detailed process of aerobic cellular respiration. Procedure: Students will work in pairs or trios to answer questions (as seen in benchmarks) on aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Students will use previous notes and lab activities to summarize main ideas for aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Individually, students will create a concept map using Inspiration to further integrate and separate the two processes. Accommodations: Instructions will be provided in written format as well as read orally. Instructions will also be on an overhead. One example will be provided for students on how to summarize data.

  • Cellular Respiration +
    Reference 3 Cellular Respiration Cellular respiration is a critical biochemical process for life on Earth. All cells require a continuous supply of energy to maintain order, build organic molecules, grow, and carry on all their other activities. Plants and other organisms can recover the solar energy stored in the molecular bonds of glucose by breaking down the sugar. Energy can then be stored in the bonds of ATP, which is used for a variety of processes that a cell must carry out to live. Cellular respiration is the most efficient way that glucose can be broken down to generate energy for other cellular reactions. In a sense, cellular respiration can be thought of as a type of controlled burning. When something is burned, a great deal of energy is released. The process requires oxygen and releases carbon dioxide and water and produces ATP. Cellular respiration can be summarized as: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + 32 ATP & heat carbohydrate oxygen carbon dioxide water energy During cellular respiration, the energy stored in a glucose molecule is released slowly as the molecule is broken down (figure R3.1). Cellular respiration occurs in three phases. In the first steps, known as glycolysis, glucose is split into two 3- carbon molecules. This releases energy, some of which is transferred to ATP. Glycolysis takes place in the cell cytoplasm. The second stage is called the Krebs cycle. During the Krebs cycle, each of the 3-carbon molecules is disassembled in a series of reactions to form six carbon dioxide molecules. Hydrogen atoms are also released.

  • Cellular Respiration
    Cellular Respiration Glucose is the preferred carbohydrate of cells. In solution, it can change from a linear chain to a ring. Energy is stored in the bonds of the carbohydrates. Breaking these bonds releases that energy. Crushing sugar crystals creates tiny electrical fields that give off invisible ultraviolet light. The wintergreen chemical (methyl salicylate) gets excited by these excited electrons and fluoresces in a visible blue wavelength. This phenomenon is called triboluminescence. Contents 1 Glycolysis 2 Fermentation 3 The Preparatory Reaction 4 Mitochondria 5 Aerobic Respiration 6 Metabolic Pool Glycolysis Glucose is the preferred carbohydrate of cells. Glycolysis (glyco – sugar; lysis – splitting) is a universal process of all cells that occurs in the cytosol whereby the glucose (a 6-carbon sugar) is split into two pyruvate (a 3-carbon molecule) molecules to generate ATP and reduced NADH. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell that stores chemical energy in 3 high energy phosphate bonds. NADH (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a high energy electron carrier that acts as a coenzyme in reactions and as a rechargeable battery of sorts. The uncharged state that is not carrying high energy electrons is called NAD+. CC-BY-NC-SA | Jeremy Seto | New York City College of Technology | 1 Cellular Respiration Glycolysis is the splitting of glucose into 2 pyruvate molecules to generate 2 NADH and 2ATP molecules. ATP contains 3 high energy phosphates and acts as cellular energy currency. NADH is the reduced form of NAD+. The High energy electrons associated with the reduced form come with a H atom.

  • Cellular Respiration Liberation of Energy by Oxidation of Food
    Cellular Respiration Liberation of Energy by Oxidation of Food Respiration and Photosynthesis: Photosynthesis uses CO2 and H2O molecules to form C6H12O6 (glucose) and O2. Respiration is just the opposite of photosynthesis; it uses O2 to breakdown glucose into CO2 and H2O. It results in chemical cycling in biosphere. Respiration and Breathing: Respiration takes place in cells and needs O2 to breakdown food and releases the waste matter CO2. Breathing exchanges these gases between lungs and air. Overall equation for cellular respiration is: C6H1206 + O2 6CO2 + 6 H2O + ATP Glucose Oxygen Carbon Dioxide Water Energy Redox reactions: reduction-oxidation reactions. The gain of electrons during a chemical reaction is called Reduction. The loss of electrons during a chemical reaction is called Oxidation. Glucose is oxidized to 6CO2 and O2 is reduced to 6H2O during cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose loses electrons and H, and O2 gains them. Energy and Food All living things need energy. Some living things can make their food from CO2 and H2O – Producers (plants, algae) Animals feeding on plants – herbivores (chipmunk) Animals feeding on animals – Carnivores (lion) Producers change solar energy to chemical energy of organic molecules – glucose, amino acids Animals and also plants break chemical bonds of sugar molecules and make ATP.

  • Increased Mitochondrial Respiration of Adipocytes from Metabolically
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Increased mitochondrial respiration of adipocytes from metabolically unhealthy obese compared to healthy obese individuals Anja Böhm1,2,3*, Michaela Keuper3,4, Tobias Meile5, Marty Zdichavsky6, Andreas Fritsche1,2,3, Hans‑Ulrich Häring1,2,3,7, Martin Hrabě de Angelis 2,8,9, Harald Staiger2,3,7,10 & Andras Franko 1,2,3 Among obese subjects, metabolically healthy (MHO) and unhealthy obese (MUHO) subjects exist, the latter being characterized by whole-body insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis, and subclinical infammation. Insulin resistance and obesity are known to associate with alterations in mitochondrial density, morphology, and function. Therefore, we assessed mitochondrial function in human subcutaneous preadipocytes as well as in diferentiated adipocytes derived from well-matched donors. Primary subcutaneous preadipocytes from 4 insulin-resistant (MUHO) versus 4 insulin-sensitive (MHO), non-diabetic, morbidly obese Caucasians (BMI > 40 kg/m2), matched for sex, age, BMI, and percentage of body fat, were diferentiated in vitro to adipocytes. Real-time cellular respiration was measured using an XF24 Extracellular Flux Analyzer (Seahorse). Lipolysis was stimulated by forskolin (FSK) treatment. Mitochondrial respiration was fourfold higher in adipocytes versus preadipocytes (p = 1.6*10–9). In adipocytes, a negative correlation of mitochondrial respiration with donors’ insulin sensitivity was shown (p = 0.0008). Correspondingly, in adipocytes of MUHO subjects, an increased basal respiration (p = 0.002), higher proton leak (p = 0.04), elevated ATP production (p = 0.01), increased maximal respiration (p = 0.02), and higher spare respiratory capacity (p = 0.03) were found, compared to MHO. After stimulation with FSK, the diferences in ATP production, maximal respiration and spare respiratory capacity were blunted.

  • Cellular Respiration
    CELLULAR RESPIRATION Cellular respiration is a metabolic process allowing cells to completely catabolize glucose forming six molecules of carbon dioxide for each sugar molecule. Respiratory organisms that use molecular oxygen as their final electron acceptor also form water in association with this process. The biochemical reactions of cellular respiration are typically divided into three pathways or steps including glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain (respiratory chain). Cellular respiration is more efficient in terms of energy “capture” than is fermentation because much more of the energy stored in each glucose molecule is conserved in ATP. Most of the ATP formed is the result of oxidative phosphorylation, therefore respiratory organisms can also be described as oxidative organisms. The coenzymes (NAD and FAD) reduced during the Krebs cycle store considerable potential energy that can be transferred when they pass their extra electrons to the electron transport chain or respiratory chain. These involve electron carriers associated with membranes (the cristae of mitochondria or the cell membranes of prokaryotic cells). As the electron carriers are alternately reduced and oxidized, they transport hydrogen protons across the membrane generating a proton motive force. The proton motive force is an electrical and concentration gradient formed due to the accumulation of hydrogen protons (in the intermembrane space of mitochondria or within the periplasmic space of prokaryotic cells). The protons (given the opportunity) will move back across the membrane (diffuse down their gradients), and they can do this when their movement is facilitated by ATP-synthase, an integral protein complex. The enzyme uses the energy provided by the proton flow (potential energy), to convert ADP + PO4 into ATP.
