Aerobic Cellular Respiration happens inMitochondria. Three main reactions are involved: 1.

Glycolosis occurs in cytoplasm of mitochondria (requires 2 ATP to start/ makes 2 ATP) 2. Krebs Cycle occurs in matrix of mitochondria (makes 2 ATP) 3. Electron Transport Chain occurs in mitochondria; makes majority of ATP (32 ATP) Out of 38 ATP Produced - energy of 2 ATP required to start the process.

Reactants for Glycolysis

Glucoseas activation energy 4 ADP and 4P Enzymes 2 NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, an energy carrier)

Products of Glycolysis

2 Pyruvic Acids (a 3C acid) 4 ATP 2 NADH Glycolysis - Net Result

2 Pyruvic Acid 2 ATP per glucose (4 2 = 2) 2 NADH

Result of one turn of the Krebs cycle...

As a result of one turn of the Krebs cycle the cell makes: 1 FADH2 3 NADH 1 ATP

However, each glucose produces two pyruvic acid molecules . So the total outcome is: 2 FADH2 6 NADH 2 ATP
