Mon-Day 1
AP Chem - took the unit exam on Periodicity
Bio - we reviewed the two types of anaerobic respiration: alcoholic and lactic acid fermentation.
We then looked at the type of respiration that uses oxygen to extract a lot more energy from the glucose molecule: aerobic respiration.
There are three parts to this process: glycolysis (same as in anaerobic) in the cytoplasm, then , in the mitochondria, the Krebs Cycle reactions which produce carbon dioxide, and then the electron transport chain, which uses oxygen which ultimately reacts with hydrogen, releasing a maximum amount of energy to form a net of 36 ATP.
