Respiration
To Breathe or Not to
Breathe?
Respiration
Respiration is the breakdown of
food (glucose) to release energy.
Where does this take place?
Enzymes (catalyst) are special
proteins that control the process of
respiration.

Cellular Respiration
Glucose (C6H12O6)

(no O2 present)
Fermentation
Anaerobic
(O2 present)
Oxidative Respiration
Aerobic

Step One
Step Two
depends on whether Oxygen is present or not
ATP activation
energy to start
the breakdown
of glucose

Oxidative Respiration
Aerobic
(O2 present)
36 ATP
Step Two
(if oxygen is present)
FERMENTATION
This is anaerobic respiration.
NO oxygen present
Alcohol Fermentation
EX: yeast
ethyl alcohol +
carbon dioxide
Lactic Acid Fermentation
lactic acid
EX: muscles
Step Two
(if NO oxygen is present)
Fermentation
Anaerobic
(no O2 present)
Fermentation
Total ATP
2 ATP
C6H12O6 C3H5O3 + 2 ATP
glucose lactic acid + 2 ATP
