Process in which cells break down glucose and make ATP for energy.

First stage of cellular respiration in which glucose is split, in the absence of oxygen, to form two molecules of pyruvate (pyruvic acid) and two (net) molecules of ATP.

Simple carbohydrate with the chemical formula C6H12O6 that is the nearly universal food for life.

A 3-carbon molecule that results from the splitting of glucose.

Energy-carrying molecule that cells use to power their metabolic processes.

The molecule that results from dephosphorylation (a phosphate group is removed). Krebs

Second stage of aerobic respiration in which two pyruvate (pyruvic acid) molecules from the first stage react to form ATP, NADH, and FADH2.

Molecule that acts as an electron carrier in cellular respiration.

Series of electrontransport molecules that pass high-energy electrons from molecule to molecule and capture their energy.

Type of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen.

Type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen.

Organelle in eukaryotic cells that makes energy available to the cell in the form of ATP molecules.

A type of anaerobic respiration that allows ATP to be made through glycolysis.

C6H12O6 + 6 O2 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ATP
