    Glucose is broken down through glycolysis into pyruvate, which then enters the citric acid cycle when oxygen is present to fully oxidize the pyruvate and generate ATP. The citric acid cycle produces NADH and FADH2 which donate electrons to the electron transport chain, establishing a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. ATP synthase uses this proton gradient to phosphorylate ADP, producing ATP as the primary energy currency of the cell. In the absence of oxygen, glycolysis continues to ferment pyruvate into lactic acid to regenerate NAD+ for continued glycolysis.

    Input

    Glucose C6H12O6
    Anaerobic
    Steps
    Glycolysis takes glucose and breaks it down to pyruvate
    Citric acid cycle or krebs cycle - need oxygen to start this cycle
    Aerobic
    Matrix
    C02 comes out

    Electron transport chain - ATP synthase ( creating ATP) intermembrane


    Hydrogen proton gets pump through ATP synthase. It bonds and then rotates
    H20 , Water is byproduct
    If there is no oxygen to receive it will stop and go back to glycolysis and do that over and over and produces lactic acid - fermentation
    ATP potential chemical energy to run stuff
    ADP does not have last phosphate group
    Inputs
    Glucose, pyruvate
    Output
    APT,water, C02
