Stages of Cellular Respiration and Their Locations

Stages of Cellular Respiration and Their Locations

The map in words

  • Glucose in Cytoplasm
    • Glycolysis
      • 2 ATP + 2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH
        • Oxygen Available?
          • No - Anaerobic: Fermentation in Cytoplasm
            • Ethanol plus CO2 or Lactic Acid
              • NAD plus Regenerated
                • 2 ATP Net - Glycolysis only
                  • Total Anaerobic - 2 ATP
          • Yes - Aerobic: Pyruvate enters Mitochondria
            • Krebs Cycle - Mitochondrial Matrix
              • CO2 + NADH + FADH2 + 2 ATP
                • Electron Transport Chain - Inner Mitochondrial Membrane
                  • 32-34 ATP + Water
                    • Total Aerobic - approx 36-38 ATP
