2. Cellular respiration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_respiration

   Respiration is one of the key ways a cell releases chemical energy to fuel cellular activity. The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps, some of which are redox reactions. Although cellular respiration is technically a combustion reaction , it is an unusual one because of the slow, controlled release of energy from the series ...

3. Metabolic pathway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_pathway

   The metabolic pathway in the cell is regulated by covalent or non-covalent modifications. A covalent modification involves an addition or removal of a chemical bond, whereas a non-covalent modification (also known as allosteric regulation) is the binding of the regulator to the enzyme via hydrogen bonds , electrostatic interactions, and Van der ...

   d -Glucose + 2 [NAD] + + 2 [ADP] + 2 [P] i 2 × Pyruvate 2 × + 2 [NADH] + 2 H + + 2 [ATP] + 2 H 2 O Glycolysis pathway overview The use of symbols in this equation makes it appear unbalanced with respect to oxygen atoms, hydrogen atoms, and charges. Atom balance is maintained by the two phosphate (P i) groups: Each exists in the form of a hydrogen phosphate anion, dissociating to contribute ...

5. Chemiosmosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemiosmosis

   The bacterial cell wall is omitted, gram-positive bacterial cells do not have outer membrane. [6] The complete breakdown of glucose releasing its energy is called cellular respiration. The last steps of this process occur in mitochondria. The reduced molecules NADH and FADH 2 are generated by the Krebs cycle, glycolysis, and pyruvate processing.

6. Electron transport chain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_transport_chain

   In aerobic respiration, the flow of electrons terminates with molecular oxygen as the final electron acceptor. In anaerobic respiration, other electron acceptors are used, such as sulfate. In an electron transport chain, the redox reactions are driven by the difference in the Gibbs free energy of reactants and products.

7. Respiration (physiology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiration_(physiology)

   Although physiologic respiration is necessary to sustain cellular respiration and thus life in animals, the processes are distinct: cellular respiration takes place in individual cells of the organism, while physiologic respiration concerns the diffusion and transport of metabolites between the organism and the external environment.

9. Energy flow (ecology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_flow_(ecology)

   The first step in energetics is photosynthesis, where in water and carbon dioxide from the air are taken in with energy from the sun, and are converted into oxygen and glucose. [7] Cellular respiration is the reverse reaction, wherein oxygen and sugar are taken in and release energy as they are converted back into carbon dioxide and water.
