 Introduction

The set of the metabolic reactions and

processes that take place in the cells of
organisms to convert biochemical energy
from nutrients into adenosine
triphosphate (ATP), and then release
waste products.
Cellular Respiration
What is Cellular Respiration?

The reactions involved in respiration are

the broken down of large molecules

into smaller ones,
the released of heat energy, and
the need and utilization of oxygen
in organisms while many do not.
Bacteria, archaea and other microbial
organisms may respire using a broad
range of inorganic substances such as
sulfur, metal ions, methane or hydrogen
as acceptor.

the use oxygen  are aerobic organisms

don’t use oxygen  anaerobic organisms
Anaerobic Respiration

A process used by many prokaryotes

in which neither oxygen nor pyruvate
or a pyruvate derivative is used as
acceptor.
It is respiration without oxygen.
Energetically less efficient than
aerobic respiration.
In prokaryotes, a rapid growth rate
occurs when they are shifted from an
aerobic to an anaerobic condition, they
must increase utilization of available food
sources.

In eukaryotes, during strenuous activity,

the cells use fermentation to supplement
the energy from aerobic respiration.

The Relationship of Photosynthesis to Cellular Respiration
Alone in space, alone in its life-supporting
systems, powered by inconceivable
energies, mediating them to us through
the most delicate adjustments, wayward,
unlikely, unpredictable, but nourishing,
enlivening, and enriching in the largest
degree—is this not a precious home for all
of us?
Is it not worth our love?
