DISCUSSION
GLYCOLYSIS
• Glycolysis is the first step in the breakdown of glucose to extract
energy for cellular metabolism.
• Glycolysis consists of an energy-requiring phase followed by an
energy-releasing phase.
• Glycolysis is a series of reactions that extract energy from
glucose by splitting it into two three-carbon molecules called
pyruvates.
• Glycolysis is an ancient metabolic pathway, meaning that it
evolved long ago, and it is found in the great majority of
organisms alive today.
• Glycolysis is the central pathway for the glucose catabolism in
which glucose (6-carbon compound) is converted into
pyruvate (3-carbon compound).
• Glycolysis takes place in both aerobic and anaerobic
organisms and is the first step towards the metabolism of
glucose.

KREBS CYCLE
(Source: http://www.phschool.com/science/biology_place/biocoach/cellresp/krebs.html)
The citric acid cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle or the
tricarboxylic acid cycle, is at the center of cellular metabolism, playing
a starring role in both the process of energy production and
biosynthesis. It finishes the sugar-breaking job started in glycolysis and
fuels the production of ATP in the process. It is also a central hub in
biosynthetic reactions, providing intermediates that are used to build
amino acids and other molecules. The citric acid cycle enzymes are
found in all cells that use oxygen, and even in some cells that don't.

Powerhouse of Energy
The citric acid cycle provides the electrons that fuel the process
of oxidative phosphorylation—our major source of ATP and energy. As
the acetyl group is broken down, electrons are stored in the carrier
NADH, and delivered to Complex I. These electrons then fuel the
production of a proton gradient by two proton pumps: cytochrome
6
bc1 and cytochrome c oxidase. This proton gradient then powers the
rotation of ATP synthase, building ATP. All of this action occurs in our
mitochondria—the citric acid cycle enzymes are inside the
mitochondria, and the protein pumps are in the mitochondrial
membrane.
Figure 4. Electron transport chain. The electron transport chain is a series of electron transporters
embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane that shuttles electrons from NADH and FADH 2
to molecular oxygen. In the process, protons are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix to the
intermembrane space, and oxygen is reduced to form water.
