Two types of respiration
External Respiration Internal respiration-is the process by which - is the controlled organisms exchange gases release of energywith their environment, from food.e.g. occurs in lungs of mammals, gills of fish.
Internal Respiration• controlled by enzymes.• normally involves the breakdown of glucose.• Energy that is released is trapped in the form of ATP:
EnzymesGlucose Energy
(ATP)
•Two types of internal respiration:1 Aerobic respiration.2 Anaerobic respiration.
Internal RespirationAerobic Respiration: is the release of energy from food within cells using oxygen.
Aerobes – living organisms which get their energy from aerobic respiration.
Brief explanation of aerobic respiration:
• Energy stored in bonds of glucose molecule released and used to make ATP.•When ATP breaks down it supplies energy for all metabolic reactions in the cell, e.g. growth, production of new cells etc.
Internal RespirationProcess of aerobic respiration can be represented by the balanced equation:
Enzyme
Glucose + Oxygen Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy
C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy
Internal Respiration
Detailed explanation of aerobic respiration (O.L.):
Aerobic respiration is a two stage process:
Stage 1: A process called glycolysis occurs in the cytosol (liquid in cell that surrounds the cell organelles) of the cell.Glycolysis does not use oxygen – anaerobic process.This process releases very little energy!!!Glycolysis involves the splitting of glucose with 6 carbon molecules (C6) into two 3 carbon molecules (C3).
Internal RespirationStage 1: At the same time a small number of ATP
molecules are released.
Glycolysis:
Glucose two 3 carbon + small amount molecules of energy
Note: stage 1 does not require oxygen and releases a small amount of energy!!!
Internal RespirationStage 2: takes place in the mitochondria. requires oxygen – aerobic respiration. releases a lot of energy – it produces many ATP molecules.This stage involves the complete breakdown of the two C3 molecules releasing a large amount of energy which is used to form a large amount of ATP molecules.Carbon dioxide and water (contain very little energy) are the end products of stage 2 and subsequently aerobic respiration.

Stage 2 Aerobic
Internal RespirationAnaerobic Respiration: is the release of energy from food without using oxygen.
Anaerobes: living organisms which get their energy from anaerobic respiration.
Brief explanation of anaerobic respiration: occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. Glycolysis occurs breaking glucose (C6) into two 3 – carbon molecules (C3)
This process releases very little energy!!! As a result this process is far less efficient process than aerobic respiration as glucose only partially broken down.
Internal Respiration
Anaerobic respiration also known as fermentation
Two types of fermentation
Lactic Acid Fermentation Alcohol Fermentation
Internal Respiration
Lactic Acid Fermentation (Anaerobic Respiration): occurs in some bacteria and fungi and in mammal muscle (humans) when it is short of oxygen. This process can be represented by the equation:
Glucose 2 Lactic Acid + Small amount of energy
Internal Respiration
Alcohol Fermentation:occurs in some bacteria, fungi (such as yeast) and in plants when they are deprived of oxygen.This process can be represented by the equation:
Glucose 2 ethanol + 2 carbon dioxide +
small amount of energy
Micro Organisms in Industrial Fermentation• Biotechnology (bioprocessing): is the production of useful products using living cells or their parts (cells, enzymes).
• Biotechnology: involves the use of plants, animals and (mainly) micro-organisms.
• Fermentation: in industry means the production of useful products by micro-organisms with or without the use of oxygen.
Industrial Fermentation – Production MethodNote: Bioreactor – vessel in which the biological reactions take place (pg. 117).
• Micro – organisms – placed in bioreactor with suitable substrate.•Mixture – stirred or agitated to ensure contact between micro –organisms and substrate.• Foam – ,which is produced as a result of mixing, removed by foam breaker.•Culture Medium – liquid in which micro-organisms grow.
Industrial Fermentation – Production Method• Air is pumped into bioreactor to ensure adequate amount of oxygen dissolved in culture medium. • Sparger – forms small air bubbles which dissolve more readily into culture medium.• Other important factors during production:
1. correct nutrients and micro – organisms.2. suitable temperature and pH.3. sterile environment.
Micro – Organisms used in Bio processingWide range of micro – organisms used to produce a huge range of useful chemicals and materials:
• Fungi (yeast) - used in beer and wine production.
- used to supply carbon dioxide to cause dough to rise.
• Bacteria and yeasts – manufacturing yoghurt, cheese, vinegar,
antibiotics.
• Genetically altered bacteria, yeasts, fungi – solvents, amino acids, vitamins, drugs, food additives, enzymes.

Differences between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration
Detailed Study of Aerobic RespirationHigher Level
Stage 1: Glycolysis (small amount of energy produced)
- occurs in cytosol of cell.
- enzymes speed up the process.
- glucose which is a 6-carbon (C6) sugar is converted to two 3-carbon (C3) sugars called pyruvic acid.
-This is neutral molecule which may be found as the negatively charged ion pyruvate.
- No oxygen is required some of the energy released forms 2 ATP molecules more of the energy is used to form NADH.

Stage 1:
Glucose (C6) 2 Pyruvic + 2ATP Acids (C3)
Stage 2:In stage 2 a complex series of reactions take place
• If oxygen is present the 2 pyruvic acids enter the lumen(matrix) of the mitochondria and the following processes take place:
A) Formation of acetyl coenzyme A• Pyruvic acid (3C) is converted to acetyl coenzyme A (2C) by the
removal of CO2 and 2 e-
• NAD+ is an electron acceptor and it will combine with the 2e- and a H+ proton to produce NADH:
NAD+ + 2e- + H+ NADH
Note: this NADH enters an electron transport system (ETC) to produce H2O and ATP – discuss later
Stage 2:
B) Krebs Cycle• Acetyl coenzyme A now enters a series of reactions
called Krebs Cycle
• Acetyl coenzyme A is broken down to CO2, H+ protons and 2e- by a series of reactions.
• 2e- and H+ combine with NAD+ to form NADH (goes to ETC)
• One ATP (phosphorylation) is made in each cycle.

Stage 2:
C) Electron Transport Chain (ETC)• Electron transport chains are located on the inner
membrane (cristae –folds) of the mitochondria.
• Each electron transport chain consists of electron carrier proteins in an orderly sequence in the cristae of the mitochondria.
• High energy electrons are passed from NADH to the first of these protein molecules.
• As electrons pass from molecule to molecule within each chain they lose some of their energy.
Stage 2:C) Electron Transport Chain (ETC):• Some of the energy released by the electrons is
used to form ATP (oxidative phosphorylation) and the rest is lost as heat.
• At the end of each chain , low energy electrons are removed by combining with oxygen and hydrogen to form water.

Summary of Aerobic Respiration
Stage 1:• Glycolysis - anaerobic respiration
- releases very little energy - occurs in cytosol
Stage 2:• Krebs Cycle rxns and Electron Transport Chains• aerobic respiration• release large amount of energy• occurs in lumen and cristae of mitochondria
Anaerobic RespirationGlycolysis (small amount of energy produced)
- occurs in cytosol of cell.- glucose which is a 6-carbon (C6) sugar is converted to two 3-carbon (C3) sugars called pyruvic acid.
-This is neutral molecule which may be found as the negatively charged ion pyruvate.
- No oxygen is required some of the energy released forms 2 ATP molecules more of the energy is used to form 2 NADH molecules.
Anaerobic Respiration
• In the absence of oxygen the two NADH molecules break down to release 2e- and a proton.
• The 2e- and the proton are then added to pyruvic acid forming either:
- lactic acid (lactic acid fermentation)- ethanol and CO2 (alcohol fermentation)
This addition of electrons is a process called Reduction
