    Glycolysis splits glucose into pyruvate, producing 2 ATP and 2 NADH. The pyruvate then enters the Krebs cycle, where it is converted to carbon dioxide and hydrogen ions while producing more electron carriers. The electron carriers pass electrons through the electron transport chain via protein complexes, using the energy to produce large amounts of ATP through chemiosmosis, providing cells with the energy needed to function and survive.

    Explain the process of aerobic respiration.

    Glycolysis
    - The glycolysis process, the glucose molecules are splitting and separated into two ATP and
    two NADH molecules, which are later used in the process of aerobic respiration.
    Chemical Equation:
    Glucose + 2ATP+ 2NA D +¿¿ 4ATP + 2NADH+ 2 pyruvate
    Krebs Cycle
    In this process, the pyruvate molecules are converted into carbon dioxide and hydrogen ions,
    and the hydrogen ions are transferred to electron carriers.
    Electron Transport Chain
    The electrons from the electron carriers are transferred through a series of protein complexes,
    which results in the production of ATP.
    Why is cellular respiration important?
    Used to generate usable ATP energy to support many other reactions in the body. it provides
    cells with the energy they need to function. If living things could not get the energy they need
    out of food, it would be worthless. All living things would eventually die, no matter the quality
    and amount of food.
