Fact About Energy Use and Breathing

• Aerobic metabolism

– Occurs when enough oxygen reaches cells to support energy needs.

• Anaerobic metabolism

– Occurs when the demand for oxygen outstrips the body’s ability to deliver it.

Energy Flow and Chemical Cyclingin the Biosphere

• Fuel molecules in food represent solar energy.

– Energy stored in food can be traced back to the sun.

• Animals depend on plants to convert solar energy to chemical energy.

– This chemical energy is in the form of sugars and other organic molecules.

• Autotrophs

– Are “self-feeders.”

– Include plants and other organisms that make all their own organic matter from inorganic nutrients.

• Heterotrophs

– Are “other-feeders.”

– Include humans and other animals that cannot make organic molecules from inorganic ones.

• Producers

– Biologists refer to plants and other autotrophs as the producers in an ecosystem.

• Consumers

– 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 rearrange the atoms of these ingredients to produce sugars (glucose) and other organic molecules.

– Oxygen gas is a by-product of photosynthesis.Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

• The loss of electrons during a redox reaction is called oxidation.

• The acceptance of electrons during a redox reaction is called reduction.

The Metabolic Pathway of Cellular Respiration

• Cellular respiration is an example of a metabolic pathway,

– A series of chemical reactions in cells.

• All of the reactions involved in cellular respiration can be grouped into three main stages:

– Glycolysis

– The Krebs or Citric Acid Cycle

– Electron transport

Fermentation: Anaerobic Harvest of Food Energy

• Some of your cells can actually work for short periods without oxygen.

• Fermentation

– Is the anaerobic 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 is the metabolic pathway that provides ATP during fermentation.

– Pyruvic acid is reduced by NADH, producing NAD+, which keeps glycolysis going.

– In human muscle cells, lactic acid is a by-product.
